Dirty Martini, Dirty Bastard...

How many of you knew exactly what my title meant?

OR, did you just wonder: "Uh oh, what has Mook gotten himself into?"

It's a great line made famous by Samantha in a SATC episode .

And, rest easy: Mook is not in the dog house. In fact, quite the opposite. He sent me off on a girl's trip that I had been looking forward to for ages...meeting Bee Cee in the flesh: and she is completely and utterly beautiful in every meaning of the word! I've said it before, and I'll say it again: IF sucks big chunks, but the friendships I have made along our journey are priceless.

She and I connected right away when we found each other's blogs 2 years ago, and one of the first things we found we had in common was our love for the show, Sex and the City. So it was only appropriate that we went on a Sex and the City bus tour while we spent time together in the fabulous New York City!



To say we did a lot on our trip feels like an understatement--too much to even fit into one blog post. So, in case you missed me being a "virtual tour guide" on twitter during our trip, enjoy the re-run of activities. I'm still coming down from the adrenaline rush--and the fact that I was brave enough to be apart from the O-man for that long. It was so good to see his sweet face!

  9. I wish I had gotten to see you up there too.

    And it's so funny because I kept saying as I walked around, "how do the SATC women walk around in heels all day and I can't even do it for one?"

  17. I had so much fun following your adventure on Twitter. I have been going to NY for years and don't think I ever managed to squeeze all that you did in to that small an amount of time. And the Star sightings! WOW! Good job. Uh, and I had no idea there was a SATC tour. HELLOOO! I'm so doing that next time I go. Glad you guys had so much fun. It's pretty amazing who we have all met and bonded with in cyberspace.
