<p>Thanks everyone! I’m stunned. And he managed it by being him - including that zero he got a freshman English assignment which we just about strangled him for… :)</p>
<p>I’ve been to some of the fine restaurants in P2n’s city. $200 not only buys you a great meal, but possibly also an incredible view of sunset on the gulf and ??</p>
<p>Take away my man card, but I’ll take that over the lousy Florida pizza any day of the week.</p>
<p>I just got finished the checking your man card at the door thread and it looks like you’re trying to give the SA crowd a run for the money. Gosh, you know the dog gives me strange looks when I laugh and chortle early in the morning. </p>
<p>Is this going to be the high testosterone version of SA or next week are you going to hang a sign saying you are the He Man Woman Haters Club (as we know Alfalfa really wasn’t a woman hater and thought he was a playa)?</p>
<p>There’s a tradition at my kids’ HS that in the spring of senior year, parents are invited (=encouraged) to assemble a 20"x30" photo collage for their graduating senior. They are hung around the walls of the gymnasium and everyone visits to smile and reminisce. So of course I made one for each of my sons, including my favorite photos of them over the years (in S1’s case, I arranged them on a background of a print of a landscape photo he’d taken, in S2’s case I put them on a print of a particularly detailed graphic design he created).</p>
<p>As S2 (=TSFH) and I badged into the YMCA to work out last night, he told me, "Oh yeah, all the kids at school are saying, ‘You were such a cute little kid, what happened?’ " </p>
<p>o_O </p>
<p>(PS: I think they’re full of it, he’s still gorgeous.)
(PPS: I mostly posted this because I love that popular little “WHAAAAA??” icon thingie there and needed an excuse to use it. )</p>
<p>New York City - SBMom from a couple of posts back.</p>
<p>Ah. New York.</p>
<p>I lived on Riverside and 104th for a couple of years. I know that info is already buried somewhere in this thread. I have been back though, fairly often. There is no place I know like NYC. </p>
<p>I would wax poetic, but I’m taking care of a friend’s 6 year old and have no eloquence left:).</p>
<p>All I know is that if I had to choose one of my top three trips I would take NYC with my daughter. Were it offered, of course.</p>
<p>Question - a sideline - if they have man cards what do we have? Woman what? woman what?</p>
<p>sybs…did you see camellia’s thread? She’s in decision agnst about a great offer with $$$ from Dartmouth. She’s worried she won’t find her people there. I recommended she PM you but I dont’ know if she could read through the tears.</p>
<p>I have a Manhattan Card. Alphabet City. CPW and 75th. Riverside Drive and 92nd. Famous neighbors at all three locations.</p>
<p>I need an apartment in New York. Tell me why I sold mine? Or better yet, shoot me in the foot. I deserve it.</p>
