Friday, December 5

We have a friend who recently moved from Tennessee to New York, and we had him over for dinner a few nights ago. We were listening to him describe the pros and cons of moving to New York, and  the enormous transition he is currently navigating.  He mused about how long he might stay in the city.  After listening quietly for a few minutes, my nine-year-old son finally interjected with some stridency, "But… are you going to get your green card??"
I’ve always maintained that Manhattan is indeed an island off the coast of America, but I didn’t realize how fully my son had integrated that notion.

“Johnny Cash At Folsom Prison” Has Preview Screening

Nov. 14, 2008: "Last night in a screening room lit by flickering candles at New York City’s exclusive Norwood Club, less than 40 people attended an intimate screening of Johnny Cash At Folsom Prison, the documentary about Cash’s seminal live album currently making the international festival rounds. Rosanne Cash, director Bestor Cram and writer Michael Streissguth were on hand to field questions in a living-room-sized room that felt more like a hangout session than a screening."

Wednesday, November 5

I live in Chelsea, about twenty blocks straight south of Times Square, and I could hear the roars from my bedroom window at about 11 pm election night, when Obama was declared President-elect.  The celebration here in Chelsea, and all around the city, went on until the wee hours.  There was literally Dancing In The Streets.  There was a group in the East Village who gathered spontaneously to sing "The Star-Spangled Banner".  American flags went up all over.  Personally, we posted a little handmade sign in the window, next to the pumpkin decorations, that said "Yes, We Did!"
What an exciting moment.

We had our first real cold day in the city yesterday and it was fun to see everyone break out their winter duds.  I have made an informal observation over the years about who really dresses for the weather, and who rebels against appropriate cold-weather garb.  If I want to know how cold it is, and how to dress, I look out my window and watch passers-by for a few minutes to get my cue. Just opening the door and sticking my hand out never works, because once I’m out for a few minutes it is always colder than I thought.  Okay, here comes a young, straight man, wearing a hoodie.  No, can’t trust him.   I’ll freeze to death.  Teenage girl in a mini-skirt and Ugg boots with only a scarf for warmth?   Are you kidding?  I’ll have pneumonia by 4 pm.  Pizza delivery guy?  Shirtsleeves.  Right, he just ran out of the restaurant and didn’t bother putting a jacket on.  No reliable information there.   Okay, here comes the exact right person for my weather info:  a mom pushing a stroller.  She AND the baby have on coat, scarf, gloves and a hat.  Thank you, Mom!   I’ll be toasty all day.

Because the euro is so strong and the dollar so weak, the city is overrun with foreign tourists right now, all laden down with shopping bags.  I see plenty of signs in store windows that say ‘Euros accepted’.  I even saw one sign that said, ‘Euros ONLY’.  I won’t mention any names.  You know who you are, nice antique store.  My daughter and I were in Bloomingdales last month, going up the escalator and as we got off, we saw a tall, striking young woman with a thick Brooklyn accent hawking perfume where people were getting on and off the escalator.  No one paid any attention to her, so she amped up the volume and, in full Brooklynese, said, "BONJOUR!  CA VA!  BONJOUR, PEOPLE!"

Cash Festival Is Front Page News

...in the Mississippi State University student newspaper. "I have to think my dad would bring a bit of defiance and humor to this," Rosanne said. "Maybe he wouldn’t repeat the public drunkenness, but the illegal flower picking is not out of the realm of possibility."

Why I’d Be a Better VP than Sarah Palin

Wenesday, October 8

I stepped into an elevator which was full of seven or eight African-American women, all leaning over a stroller and cooing at an adorable, pudgy-cheeked, wide-eyed African-American baby, who looked to be about 2 years old.

Her mother kept saying gently, "Tell them your name. Tell them your name," but the baby would not comply. The elevator door opened and all the ladies started to walk out and suddenly the baby bellowed, in a voice loud enough to fill a ball park, "MY NAME IS BARACK OBAMA!" Everyone broke into peals of laughter. I leaned over and said to the baby, ‘So, you’re going to be president!" and she bellowed back, "YES!"

I know it’s summer when the old guy in the building next door parks his plastic lawn chair on the sidewalk in front of his apartment building sometime after lunch, and sits there for the entire afternoon watching the traffic and the passersby as if he is watching the waves and boats from the seashore. And I know it’s Fall when he stops bringing his plastic chaise outdoors and he becomes just another sidewalk surfer, head down and jacket zipped all the way up as he trudges down the street. It’s Fall.

a memory:  when my son was three years old, he went to the library with a group of kids and two other moms.  One of the moms was showing the kids the globe of the world and pointing out different countries.  She asked my son, a native New Yorker who has never lived above 23rd Street, "Do you know what country you live in?"  He stuck out his chest proudly. "I live in the country of DOWNTOWN!"  he said. Still true.

Saturday, September 13

A car alarm directly across the street from my living room window went off for forty-five minutes before I called 311, the city services hotline. First, however, I taped a note to the window of the car saying, ‘YOUR CAR ALARM IS STUCK! PEOPLE LIVE IN THIS NEIGHBORHOOD!’. Within 10 minutes of calling 311, a squad car was there, and one of New York’s finest was writing a ticket. I walked across the street. "Hi, I’m the one who called." The officer looked up. "Are you also the one who wrote the nice note taped to the window?" "Yes, I am!" I said. "But I did restrain myself from throwing eggs." The officer told me to call 311 again and have the car towed, since they couldn’t turn it off. I went inside and told my daughter what he said. "But mommy," she said, ‘If you have their car towed, you’ll ruin their day." True. I didn’t call 311 back. The alarm stopped about ten minutes later.

September 11th: I sang at the memorial service at the World Trade Center site on the fourth anniversary of the attacks, September 11, 2005. The request had come from the Mayor’s office, and even the choice of song was specified. I sang "Danny Boy", a somewhat difficult song in the best of circumstances, but actually physically painful in the midst of a sea of grieving survivor’s families on that warm day three years ago. I will never forget it, and I will never forget that day four years earlier, how I watched the towers burn from the middle of Greenwich Street. My initial reaction, which still holds: No one should have to experience this, ever. Anywhere.

God bless the whole world, no exceptions.

Thursday, Sept 4

My husband, Mr. L, who is no fan of dog owners in the city (it’s a long and sordid history) went outside to take out the trash and saw a dog owner, a middle-aged woman, walking away from the nice pile her pooch had just left on the sidewalk in front of our house.  Mr. L, being as polite as he could manage under the circumstances of living in a city of about 100 million dogs and sidewalks that we all share, said, ‘Ma’am!  You forgot to clean up after your dog!"  The woman turned around and screeched at him, "YOU SHOULD PROVIDE BAGGIES" and turned and ran quickly away. I am not making this up.
