NYC for the weekend

Eric and I have a lot of photos from this past weekend. A lot. So I am going to break it up into a couple of posts!
Friday afternoon, after getting home from work, Eric and I headed to New York City! We rode the Chinatown bus ($20 round trip).
We brought dinner to eat on the bus, but I ended up just eating a bunch of Pirate's Booty.

We made it to New York's Chinatown with no problem.
Lula's Sweet Apothecary just happens to be near the bus stop, and it just so happens that Eric had never been there, so I suggested we grab some ice cream before doing anything else.

They are re-doing the interior, so for now it's just walk up, but I was happy to see that they were so busy.

I ended up going with cake batter with sprinkles and Eric got cake batter/strawberry swirl.

I inhaled my ice cream in about 2 minutes.

We met up with my friend Rebecca, who was awesome enough to let Eric and I stay at her apartment, and headed to Brooklyn.
Becca just happens to live on top of a bar, which seemed like an easy place to hang out Friday night.

We figured out that we have known each other for probably close to 20 years? We went to elementary, junior high, and high school together.

Some more friends from Texas came and joined us, including Nick!

I didn't get a shot of all of us, but there's some photos of Nick, Trevor, Rachele in this post. They were part of my main high school posse.

After a few drinks we headed to Papacitos, for some burritos.

I passed on eating, but Eric ordered a giant vegan burrito and a tecate.

After eating we parted ways and headed to sleep. I was starting to crash hard, due to my normal bedtime of 9pm.

I've never been to NYC, but when I finally make it there, Lulu's is first on the list. I would die for a cake batter ice cream cone. And that burrito looks pretty damn good too.

I highly recommend you go there a few times! The ice cream is amazing.

Chase told me you saw Terry Richardson. You didn't happen to ask if he was lookin' for a sexy latina as an intern? I'm sure he needs an intern to hold his diiaaccckk.
