Here's the deal with the bucket list. Basically, as will not surprise those of you who know me in real life (instead of just on the blog), I have a strong homebody streak. I tend to be a little bit on the shy side, and since I sometimes get stressed by the idea of socializing, it makes me stay home too much. But you know what? I like doing things! At least most of the time. So I made my list of fun things to do in New York in the summer and set off on my journey, since there's nothing I like more than crossing things off a list. Because I'm cool like that.
As you can see, I've actually been making good process on the list. I've done 8 things so far, and I will do at least three more in the next week and a half. Then I'll be about halfway done. Go me!
Last Monday was both my and Sarit's first day at work. It was sort of a fake first day for both of us, since I've taught in the summer programs for the last five years and Sarit has been a rabbinic fellow in the place where she's working now for the last two. But it was a first day nonetheless, and a beautiful evening, so we, along with our friend Shaina went to Ellington's in Riverside Park. (If you've never been, I highly recommend it. It's in Riverside Park at about 104th, and they have both food and drink.)
I know, I know. The bucket list said a rooftop bar. I'm counting this even though it wasn't on a roof because it was outside and had a beautiful view, and it was much more my speed than a regular bar. We sat on couches and had a drink each and just chilled out and enjoyed the beautiful weather. It was awesome.
