A couple of recent events have made me really yearn for New York City.
1. Jon Stewart's recent bit on New York pizza. I want some thin-crusted, cheesy goodness right now, please.
2. Last night's Tony Awards:
I'm hoping to see the touring production of Billy Elliot in San Francisco this summer, but nothing quite compares to being in NYC's Theatre District. Also, I want to see The Book of Mormon so badly (interesting, given my general dislike for South Park), but that's pretty unlikely to happen any time soon.
3. I've been listening to a lot of Billy Joel recently, courtesy of both 103.7 FM and my own iTunes collection. True, he's technically a Long Islander, but I still always associate him with New York in general.
4. It's baseball season! I caught a few minutes of YES Network's coverage via MLB's Gameday last week, and I sat at my computer, literally beaming at the sound of Paul O'Neill's voice. Michael Kay's, too, to a lesser degree, as embarrassing as that is to admit.
It's no fun being out of territory. I have to settle for catching errant games on ESPN; at least this way, I occasionally get to hear Aaron Boone in the booth. I wish traveling long distances were as easy as Carmen Sandiego made it seem.
