DroppedIn: Nick

Nick is an old friend of mine from back when I went to high school in South Pasadena, CA. When we were about 14 or so, Nick and his family moved away to Minnesota, leaving me utterly devastated. Though I eventually made other friends, it was never really the same for me in California. After he moved, we didn't really talk again...until last weekend.

He came and stayed with me here in New Haven, and we took a few overnight trips into NYC (my old hometown). It is SO rare that you can see someone after, jeez, 13 years, and not only have a good time and reminisce, but also discover that you are still friends all over again. I thought maybe I'd share some pictures from his visit.

Here we are at the New Haven train station, on our way to one of two trips to NYC. I was pretty stunned to see how similar Nick looks to the way he did when we were kids, except for a whole lot beardier.

Here's a charming shot of me halfway through a Chicken Parm hero at "Hero Boy," in the Garment District in NYC. I promised Nick that their sandwiches would change his life, and he was not disappointed.

There were a few days in the middle of the visit, where I had to stay home and make some money. Jillian was kind enough to show Nick the New Haven sights, including a little bar called Richter's, home of the half-yard.

Nick and I enjoying a little down time at Dempsey's another local bar here in New Haven.

Here we are with two transvestites we met down on the Lower East Side, in NYC. The one with the pink hair smelled exquisite, which could be why I'm cuddled up so close to her.

A great time was had by all, and Jilly and I will be going to Minnesota to visit with him this coming March. Look for photos from the twin cities, coming soon!

Share and Enjoy:
