pretty soon we'll head out in the sleet to New York City for MinXin's wedding banquet. i really love this kid, or i certainly wouldn't be doing this. it's truly nasty out there. the AOL welcome screen has some tasty dishes for Asian New Year, which whetted my appetite for this evening's festivities. it will also be good to see G's niece, her husband and son, though we won't have much time with them. we'll have breakfast together tomorrow since it's a holiday, and that's about all. we haven't seen their new place in the Village either. and if we have any time in the morning perhaps we can do a little bookshop crawling. that's enough to get me out on the road, weather be damned. we're so bookstore deprived here.
so, stay warm, celebrate the life of Dr. King, hope that his legacy will live on, hope especially that the black electorate will be galvanized into registering and voting Democratic this year in unprecedented numbers. Martin Luther King, be with us now!

Hear hear! Here's to MLK. It was disgusting to read that Bush appointed Pickering and went off to his own fundraising event (on our tax dollars) right after visiting MLK's grave. If there's anyone who clearly represents the polar opposite of MLK's ideals, it's Bush. In any case, hope you had a grand time out there and hope you got to visit some good bookstores!!!
thanks coffy, but no time for bookstores happened. we had to be home in time to pick up the dog from his home away from home and after the Ride from Hell we had on the way up, we weren't taking any chances! we headed out of the city right after breakfast. we'll be back for Passover in the spring, and we WILL build in bookshopping time.
