I really don’t have a problem with taking photos, but I get embarrassed knowing about a hundred other skinny boys have probably taken the same photo that day. I’d be fine with it if I was the only one doing. Yeah, it’s that petty.

But yes, back in NYC now for at least another year.

“I did what any aspiring young Brooklyn trendy would do; I got out my phone, and when no one was watching I took photos. And then I pretended I wasn’t embarrassed to be doing so.”

You have no idea how much this made me laugh. Mostly because I sometimes still find myself feeling too awkward and embarrassed to take pictures too. Although I shouldn’t.

Anyway, finally catching up with your blog again. Had no idea you’d left to Sydney. Are you back in NYC now?

Ha ha glad you honed in on that little point. You can and will hear more in one of my Glimpse articles, which should be published sometime in the nearish future. Not sure they’ll appear on the blog soon – all my pickle fancying got channeled into the article. But I’ll see what I can come up with…

How long ago were you there? I don’t know how long Shady Pines has been around, but I’ve passed right by it numerous times without realising there was anything going on. Don Don, one of the my favourite places for cheap eats is just around the corner.

Love the sounds of this bar! Wish I’d known about it when I was living in Sydney.
