Traces of an Evening of Joy

Joy is in New York this week and luckily we had time to see each other yesterday. She bought a video tape over that had captured a night out we had had in 2003. It was a great evening....it's funny to see the video after so much time that's passed.

Panic! We saw this play early on that evening.
Went to Moustache for dinner - chickpea salad, babaganoush, pitza...
then walked from east village to soho
and danced at some soho club where Joy's friend Duane was dj-ing

I began to like New York, the racy, adventurous feel of it at night, and the satisfaction that the constant flicker of men and women and machines gives to the restless eye. I liked to walk up Fifth Avenue and pick out romantic women from the crowd and imagine that in a few minutes I was going to enter into their lives, and no one would ever know or disapprove. Sometimes, in my mind, I followed them to their apartments on the corners of hidden streets, and they turned and smiled back at me before they faded through a door into warm darkness. At the enchanted metropolitan twilight I felt a haunting loneliness sometimes, and felt it in others—poor young clerks who loitered in front of windows waiting until it was time for a solitary restaurant dinner—young clerks in the dusk, wasting the most poignant moments of night and life. F. Scott Fitzgerald.
