If you're ever in New York

I went to the city last night and went to dinner at Ellen's Stardust Diner. I uploaded a video in October of this place, too. It's basically a 50's style diner and the waiters and waitresses are all aspiring Broadway actors. They all sing. A lot of them end up in Broadway shows. And the tips they make pay for their singing and acting lessons. So if you go, make sure you tip well. :) Ellen's is in Times Square and it's so much fun, if you're ever in the city, you should definitely check it out.

Trying to navigate Times Square is something that takes quite a bit of practice. You need to learn that cabs will hit you if you get in their way and New Yorkers usually don't wait for you to move, so you'd better walk fast.

I took this picture for Lori.

And she sent me this text back.

Inside Ellen's

My waiter. Loved him. I think it's because of the glasses.

They all sang "Be Our Guest" from Beauty and the Beast, and it was SO good. Unfortunately, I was so caught up in watching them that I completely forgot to record it.

When we were leaving, "Phantom of the Opera" started, but we were already out of our seats so I just wanted to go. As I was walking down the stairs, a waiter (not mine, I hadn't even seen him all night) said "Goodbye Spidergirl" to me. Because I was wearing my tokidoki Spiderman shirt. And I was caught off guard because I didn't expect him to talk to me, plus "Phantom of the Opera" was distracting me, so I couldn't even think of a smart response. Such a fail.

After we left, I saw this...Couldn't help taking a picture.

Then on the way to Penn Station...You know, I don't know how I've missed it every single time I've been to the city, but I swear, this is the FIRST time I've ever noticed Parsons. And of course, I had to take a picture because I love Project Runway.
