Key purchases on a first day in New York City:
1 winter hat from H & M on Broadway near the Village
Cost: $3.90 + the well being of at least four sweatshop children
1 MetroCard
Cost: $20, with $3 bonus
1 slice of crappy, greasy, yet oh-so-rapturously delicious pizza at Penn Station
Cost: $2.50
(seriously, to think there's a place on Hilton Head that actually calls itself New York City Pizza. More like Hot Circle of Garbage Pizza)
1 entrance to Peter and the Wolf show at Union Hall
Cost: $8 dollars, + scenester application fee
1/2 gourmet grilled cheese sandwich
Cost: Spending two hours in a coffee shop watching Giganti get pummeled by the Wednesday crossword
Other highlights of the day: Sending out a cover letter describing my meticulous attention to detail while also misspelling the name of the organization several times in said letter; finding indoor bocce ball courts at Union Hall; not having to drive to Bluffton, not even once, all day.
Also, finding this LOLcat halping teh needeh kittehs:
