Managed to find somewhere to eat -- The Amish Market. Lots of electricity despite the name;) LOL. But most of the stuff was organic and fresh so I felt like it was safer than other stuff I was seeing in the financial district. Stomach is a little rumbly, but I think that might be more due to the excedrin than anything. But I do have two painful places inside my mouth, so it's possible I got something. But no migraine despite the rain, so whatever it was, wasn't too bad.
And i did go to see Serenity again --- did my part;) LOL. *crosses fingers* There were only 8 people in the theater, but then again, this was 2 pm in New York in the middle of the financial district. The movie is also playing a lot of theaters here in New York. Hmm...maybe I should look around to see if it's showing anywhere in Philly proper and go next weekend too. I haven't spent much during my trip here, so if finances allow, might as well;)
And it rocked, again. Not a single part of it that I dislike in all honesty. And I bought the Serenity Visual Companion. I almost bought the novelization, but when i saw that a) the novelization doesn't translate the chinese and the companion does and b) the writing was bad (IMO), I stuck to just the companion. And the novelization may be good for just such a thing -- I've read very few novelizations in my life and the only ones I've liked are those that actually go into the head of a POV character. I have the impression that the serenity novelization is completely 3rd person. And um... too many synonyms for the word "said". ;)( spoilers )
And I didn't take the subway. Sounds like a good thing - I overheard some people talking about it and said that it had been shut down for a short time during rush hour.
And as a random ass statement -- I can officially say I've seen the sight of the Twin Towers now.
