Anna may be away in Europe right now, but I think I can speak for both of us when I say that we are rather often caught exclaiming, "Put it on our To-Do list!" Now, if you have heard this escape our mouths before, you know what this means. If you have not, it might seem a bit strange. Perhaps you just think it is just some Midwest thing that Midwest people do to irritate those of the East Coast persuasion.
Let me clarify for those misinformed souls out there: This is an ongoing To-Do list that we have been adding to since our arrival in New York City back in January of this year. New bar in the East Village? "To-Do List" it. Interesting photo exhibit that is ending in one week? "To-Do List" it. One-man band parading the streets in his underwear with a top hat on? "To-Do List" it.
I think you get the idea.
However, we were literally holding this amazing To-Do List together with imaginary thread - nothing was there to keep things in order. Amazing one-time events were forgotten. New bars mourned the absence of two cute, young, lady patrons during happy hour. Rare city wonders went missing on scraps of notebook paper in our bedrooms, purses, and office desks.
To fix this, I am creating this blog. Together, we now have a place to collectively save our "To-Do List" finds, and satiate our compulsive tendencies. And maybe we will actually attend an event or two in the process!
Prepare for many events to appear in rapid-fire succession as I work to post the few events and places that have somehow managed to stay on my mental "To-Do List."
Cheers,
Mindy
