Day 81 - NYC to Philadelphia

Well, it had to happen at some point. As I was leaving Manhattan this morning, I locked my keys in my trunk. Oops. I knew it would happen, and at least it happened in a place where a Pop-a-Lock could get to me quickly. I had dropped my keys in my trunk and realized what I had done as soon as I closed the trunk. I immediately called Acura Roadside assistance and they dispatched a service vehicle. I waited less than half an hour and the guy managed to pop open the trunk pretty quickly.

So I was a little late in leaving Manhattan, but traffic getting out of the city wasn't too bad. I spent most of the day hanging out with a cruise friend, Phil, in northern New Jersey. He made us french toast for breakfast and then we hung out and he showed me around some of the Sandy storm damage in the area. We had BBQ ribs for a late lunch and then I headed down to my parents' place outside of Philly. Traffic on the New Jersey turnpike sucked. Seriously. Crappola. Lots of relaxing this week at my parents', with minimal events planned. I am taking my car in tomorrow to get the mirror replaced from when it got hit up in Newport. And I also finalized my revamped plans for next weekend that had to change based on the death of my friend's brother. I'm also hoping to make it to his funeral/memorial service whenever it occurs later this week.

Currently catching up in So You Think You Can Dance that my mother saved for me on her DVR. And doing a lot of laundry. A lot.
