That was a good joke, wasn’t it?
Saturday was DAVE YORK 2!!!!!!!!!!!! So, here’s how the day went from my perspective: I woke up at 8:30am, didn’t really take to it too kindly because my knees hurt so much from kneeling on concrete the day before, ate some bacon, went back to bed until 2pm, showered, got ready, then left with Dawg to the train station. We took the J to the E then rode to 42nd Street where we got Starbucks and took A LOT of photos.
Then it was Dave York 2 time at the Hard Rock Cafe in Times Square! In attendance from L to R around the Hard Rock table: Poppy, Dawg, B E Earl, ETinNY (he has no blog 
but here’s a photo!), Robin, Sparky, Whitenoise, Dave2, and Cissa!
After birthday extravaganza we headed to the East Side (lower) for drinks. At Union Square we were subjected to Maroon 5 top 40ness:
How’d they get the piano down there?
We had drinks at Jack’s but they kept fucking up everything so that we would leave. We took the hint rather than trying to tell them how to do their jobs and left to Coffee Shop Bar where I decided I needed a chorizo quesadilla for my fourth beer of the night, a Newcastle. After the Coffee Shop Bar we all went our separate ways, hugging goodbye, then everyone else jumped on a Q train while Dawg and I took the N to the E to the J home.
I have had no time to edit all the photos included in the links above because Sunday was WRESTLEMANIA. So, I’ll get around to it when I get time, but enjoy them sideways for now.
PS – HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my Gramma!
Happy Birthday, Poppy’s gramma!!!
I am jealous of the Dave York weekend! Looks like tons o’ fun!
I had a blast while it was there. It was great meeting you all. I should have stuck around. My friend, who was supposed to meet us at a bar called River on 1oth Ave, never showed up and we didn’t hear from him until almost ten. By then we were too involved in the basketball games to go exploring. I was ready to meet back up with you around 11:15ish, but Dave said you were heading back to Times Square and then possibly calling it a night.
Love the pics, especially Dave “crying” on the subway. And the Duvels and Chimays looked delish. What was the name of that bar again? Jack?
Anyway, it was great to finally meet you and Dawg. Next time I bring Gia!
While I was there, obviously in that first line. Sigh.
But the more important question is how much did you guys talk about me and how much you missed me, hm?
Poppy I had SUCH a great time with you! Boobies FTW! Awesome pictures. wow, I am still processing it all!
B.E. Earl, I wish you had stuck around, but it’s ok. you were with us in spirit!
Avitable, we spoke of you, actually! We did wish you were there. But I am pretty sure we’ll all see you at the Halloween Party this year, if not before then!
LOVED the Time Square pictures. Must go there next time to see the Hello Kitty.
One, I am glad you had fun.
Two, I said this ad Dawg’s but that video makes me smile for some odd reason. I love that thing!
Three, I miss New York. Maybe once I get settled, I will come visit the city (and you too).
Sorry I missed it; glad you had fun!
Wow, now I’m wishing I would have used my miles to come to NY instead of Reno.
It’s the Poppy Lanyard!!
wOOt! And I got a Poppy autograph- you love me and my boobies – it’s in writing.
Can’t wait to hang out at BeerHer and TC.
some great photos in the flickr stream. thanks for sharing. looked like everyone had a blast!
