You are the best- and one of the greatest reasons why I love NY so deeply. “Only in New York, kids” always comes to mind when I read your words. Where else does that kaleidoscope of humanity intersect and become mythologized in an instant? And who else shares these stories so vibrantly and with humor (even when it’s shaped like muse) always nearby? 💖
Even at its darkest, somewhere and somehow NYC has silver linings for those whose hearts and eyes are open to them. You are one of those bright silver strands we readers have so luckily stumbled upon.
Your slice-o-New-York-life stories are an absolute delight (and a much-needed respite from the utter insanity we’re experiencing courtesy of the Orange Turd). Keep ‘em coming, please!
The sainted sisters of St. John’s would have been proud of you, Eileen. While I know the titan builders of Manhattan did not have the same mathematical chops as the neolithic people who built Newgrange before the Pyramids and Stonehenge, this twice a year slice of Manhattanhenge works for me too!❤️
I wish you were here right now, Pat - it's a game, but it feels like so much more. Optimism, hope, unity...I'm kind of getting the point of sports. (Finally 😂)
Another great story. What a whack-a-doodle Sunday shift! I’m glad it ended with a Manhattanhenge, reminding one of both the beauty and temporariness of this existence.
Great story beautiful picture💖
Thanks, Peg. XX

And let’s go Knicks 🧡🏀🥳!
I will sail through this weekend on the kindness of your words. Thank you. XX
Eileen you are an iconic New Yorker and you have the stories to prove it! Love and miss you!!
That's how I feel about you, David and Olivia. (Once a New Yorker, always a New Yorker.) XX00
How did it feel to channel Sister Charlotte Mary...?
😂😂😂 Powerful. (I missed my calling.)
I always credit Sr. Charlotte Mary for my handwriting. 😆

You are truly a saint, Eileen.
Don’t let these maniacs burn you at the stake on Seventh Avenue.
Fun story, thanks!
Thanks for reading!

Another enjoyable story and a cool picture!
Thanks so much!
Hope you checked that dog’s ID. Go Knicks!
I love dogs, but this one freaked me out a little. 😳 (Zoom in on the face, you'll see what I mean.)
C what u mean!
Another Friday morning pick me up Eileen. Thank you. And yes Go New York Go, even though we love Wembey over here. ❤️

I really enjoy your posts…glad they just turned up in my feed one day! Keep on writing…😊
Thanks so much! (I have no idea how it all works, but I’m glad we connected.)
Thanks for the shout out but you had the situation well under control even without your bat.
Carry a ruler instead of a bat. It will strike fear into everyone.
You can't spend all that time in Catholic School without absorbing some of the Sisters of Mercy scare tactics. 😳
Another great story. What a whack-a-doodle Sunday shift! I’m glad it ended with a Manhattanhenge, reminding one of both the beauty and temporariness of this existence.
I miss you at the bar, but am so grateful for your presence here, Steve. XX
So enjoyable!! Thanks!
Another great story but the dog was cute😜
Maybe I was freaked out by association, but that dog gave me the creeps. 😂
It’s never the dog’s fault 😁
