New York Guest Season

By

New York Guest Season is upon us and blogging may be infrequent over the coming days.

EiNY survived last week’s Hurricane “father-in-law” Finn largely unscathed, but Hurricane Dave crossed the Atlantic yesterday and hurricanes Adam and parent storm Rodney are due to make landfall this evening.

New York Guest Season is one of the greatest threats to peace and tranquility for immigrants to New York, having transplanted themselves to one of the most popular destinations in the world. However contingency plans are already well underway. An air mattress has been airlifted from neighbors, my wife is being evacuated to Boston and provisions, including beer, crisps and nachos have been bought in.

There is no doubt that these hurricanes will affect this weblog and its author’s waistline over the coming days.

Don’t worry. If anything goes wrong, or you’re not prepared, you can just blame an incompetent government agency for your woes!

That is so funny, NY Guest Season, that’s great. I honestly can’t think the last time we had a weekend with no visitors. And this whole month we’ve had a girl living with us…it ‘s amazing how dirty and disheveled your place gets with just one extra body around…ugh!
