This is my first ever blog attempt! (thank you, thank you, really, the applause isn't necessary ....). I'm going to keep it short and sweet, since I am sitting in the corner in my local bar here in Astoria at 10pm on a Friday night on my laptop. It's a little more than nerdy if you ask me. I mean they have club music playing and I really should get home eventually.
OK, so! I've never done this, I have no idea if anyone will even see it and I have a sneaking suspicion that this may be short-lived for me. HOWEVER, I'm willing to try (of course, the shot of Patron and 3 Stellas helped in the decision-making process).
Just a quick chat about my hangout: Time Cafe. I've lived in Astoria for going on 4 years now. I never really hung out in the neighborhood - always went into Manhattan for my fun. Then my roommate got me going to this place less than two blocks from our house. What a discovery! I won't go into all of the fun details YET (something tells me I will be writing about the staff and events here frequently, so why blow the whole wad in my first entry). In a word: SPECTACULAR!
For now, I'll just say that I spent the day here drinking espresso, working on my resume and watching Time go from a happy, day-dreamy cafe to city-feel lounge vibe in a matter of a few hours. This has been my frequent routine lately (did I mention I lost my job?). But hey, it's better than sitting at home and doing all of this research and writing from my couch, right?
