Ack! I just got back from dropping my 5 year old downtown, 2 year old strapped to my front (thank GOD I didn’t take the stroller) and was actually a little freaked out a few times it was so difficult getting across Broadway and through the sidewalks so excited, so plentiful and so rowdy were the Yankees fans. Our subway stop was shut down, I got caught in a bottleneck at one of those metal barricades, everyone angry, shoving, trying to get to work or wherever…
It was then I wished they hadn’t won. I know, sigh, sacrilege!
But Happy Friday all – don’t think the sky could possibly be a more crisp and lovely shade of blue. And to those of you who love the Yankees, congrats!
Nice one Broke!
