Did you recently turn a corner only to be whipped in the face with a gust of wind so strong it caused you to take one step back? FYI, winter windblown hair. Not sexy.
Have you dealt with wet socks all day because that last step you took crossing the street turned out to be through a puddle of what looked like solid ice?
This morning when you put on your winter coat, were the sleeves a little tight because of the 7 layers underneath…Yes, my armpit area was a bit snug too.
Has THIS happened on your way to work? (don’t lie.)
If so, you may be a victim of NYCWW (New York City Winter Wrath) and might appreciate the rest of my third blog write-up…
So, on February 2, according to Charles G Hogg, New York City had 6 more weeks of winter left. Now, I know what you were thinking because, I too, thought the exact same thing…
Six.
More.
Weeks.
Who the heck is this “Hogg” character & what does he want from my life?!?!
I mean, we’ve finally gotten to the point where we don't enter and leave work in complete darkness. And yet, this perpetual wind meets snow meets ice meets I almost busted it THREE times to the subway… It’s all getting pretty old. Wouldn’t you agree?
For those of you who do not know, Charles G Hogg is the groundhog apparently notorious for being correct in his winter predictions…so I wouldn’t take this lightly. The good news? According to Hogg, NYC only has 2 more weeks of winter left! Now for the bad news. Judging by my handy Accuweather app, the lows in the next four week still remain below 40!
You want to do something fun, something that can involve a group of people, something that requires little clothing, something that does not require being left at the mercy of an uppity cocktail waitress who can’t remember your drink order much less split a check?
Here’s my take on what to do in NYC when it’s THIS cold: Live Music.
The city is full of music venues (I’ve included a few below, though the possibilities are endless):
Manhattan:
Mercury Lounge
Roseland Ballroom
Terminal 5
The Bowery Ballroom
Webster Hall
Brooklyn:
Brooklyn Bowl
Knitting Factory - Brooklyn
Music Hall of Williamsburg
