NYC day 2

Today, I slept in and dragged my sister to meet chi_zu and coffeeandink for lunch at Cafe Lalo (apparently where You've Got Mail was filmed, but Mely said she found it before the movie came out, so she is allowed to keep going there). I was quite impressed that I did not have subway troubles, even though I abandoned my sister in the shower to try and get there on time.

Also, it was sunny today! Yay! It was quite lovely!

Within the first five seconds of meeting chi_zu, I decided that I desperately coveted pretty much everything she was wearing. Including the glasses.

We were all too full for the very lovely looking desserts, and instead of venturing out to assorted yarn and vintage stores as was originally planned, we ended up going to Bookoff. Well, I may have had something to do with that. Especially since it was so lovely outside and I didn't get to go yesterday!

On the way, we got sidetracked by Borders and Mely's local comic book store.

At last, we made it to Bookoff, but I will blog about that later, because it warrants an entry of its own. Also, I bought so much that I should leave that off to another entry just for space reasons (er, yes).

And now, we are going to watch a cheesy ice skating movie!

I am so full.

Also, I sit and pet my new stacks of manga.
