gray's papaya

so i dropped by gray’s papaya in my old neighborhood for some cheap hot dogs with my cousins and apparently they’re not so cheap anymore. when they first started doing the the recession special, it was $1.95, two hot dogs and a drink. But now it’s gone up to $4.45 or $1.50 per hot dog. it’s really not much cheaper than a hot dog anywhere now. i can get two slices and a soda for $2.50 down on st mark’s if i want some cheap eats. i miss getting a hot dog from gray’s for 50 cents. inflation sucks.

“i’m not chicken, you’re a turkey”

-from one of my favorite corny anti-drug campaigns… this is gold! i used to go around randomly saying that phrase for no reason. lol. ah, memories.

christmas lights in the l.e.s.

Posted by Jay Ju on Nov 19, 2008 in My Photos, My Words

it’s cold enough now that i can see my breath when i go outside and with that, christmas lights have gone up. although, i didn’t expect them to pop up in the LES. not complaining, just surprised.

the lights go all up and down orchard street. nothing feels more like christmas to me than christmas in new york city. even down in the LES i guess.

this is from my window. i laughed when i saw that they actually put the letters LES in the lights. christmas neighborhood pride? :P

down the middle

Posted by Jay Ju on Nov 13, 2008 in My Words
orchard st at 4am...

orchard st at 4am... this block is actually pretty clean

so i’ve been living in the LES for about 3 months now and i love it except all the garbage piled up on the sidewalks. and really, i don’t mind the garbage as much as the rats that are rummaging through them. i’ve had quite a few big rats cross my path late at night and i swear they are looking at me with a “wtf are you lookin’ at yo?” look. so i’ve just gotten into the habit of just walking straight down the middle of the street. not the middle of the sidewalk, but down the middle of the asphalt toward oncoming traffic. and i have to admit, when i’m stumbling home, with no little surprises busting out of the shadows across my feet, it’s quite peaceful. no, i’m not afraid of rats, but the ones that aren’t afraid of me certainly give me pause. they should be running AWAY from me, not running AT me. :P
