Not many people there and I remember that when I&#8217;ve been there before it was always packed with people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"540\" height=\"405\" src=\"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/j31.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20645\" srcset=\"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/j31.jpg 540w, https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/j31-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 540px) 100vw, 540px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We walked on the High Line for a while but it was mighty windy and getting dark, so we didn&#8217;t linger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">The whole point of going to NYC was to see Eddie Izzard doing his one-man show of &#8220;Great Expectations.&#8221;  His brother had condensed the long novel into a two-hour show and Eddie performed all the parts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">The performance was at the Greenwich House Theater, a small space down in the West Village.  We took an Uber to get there and were early, and it was nice to sit down and relax before the show.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"400\" height=\"533\" src=\"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/j14.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20634\" srcset=\"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/j14.jpg 400w, https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/j14-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">I&#8217;m wearing my Eddie Izzard shirt that I got at one of his shows a long time ago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"540\" height=\"405\" src=\"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/j15.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20635\" srcset=\"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/j15.jpg 540w, https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/j15-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 540px) 100vw, 540px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">It started at 7:00 and we were out of there by 9:30.  We walked down Bleeker Street and it seemed odd to me.  Many things were permanently closed and others were already closed for the night.  I was craving pizza and we finally found an Italian place, but they didn&#8217;t serve pizza.  The nice woman there who had a strong Italian accent recommended another restaurant so off we went.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">It was called Nomero 28 PIzzeria and was delicious.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"540\" height=\"405\" src=\"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/j16.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20636\" srcset=\"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/j16.jpg 540w, https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/j16-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 540px) 100vw, 540px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">One other table of people was there but they soon left and we had the restaurant to ourselves, my favorite way to dine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"540\" height=\"405\" src=\"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/j17.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20637\" srcset=\"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/j17.jpg 540w, https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/j17-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 540px) 100vw, 540px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"400\" height=\"533\" src=\"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/j18.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20639\" srcset=\"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/j18.jpg 400w, https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/j18-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">When we left, the sreets were mostly deserted.  I don&#8217;t remember NYC being like this at all, and I&#8217;m pretty sure that it&#8217;s because of Covid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Meanwhile, back at home, Marley was having such a grand time that she brought one her mice all the way downstairs and snuggled down on Kevin&#8217;s coat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"540\" height=\"405\" src=\"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/j19.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20640\" srcset=\"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/j19.jpg 540w, https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/j19-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 540px) 100vw, 540px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">I love this picture that looks like she&#8217;s looking at the Mooch pillow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"540\" height=\"405\" src=\"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/j20.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20641\" srcset=\"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/j20.jpg 540w, https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/j20-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 540px) 100vw, 540px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"540\" height=\"405\" src=\"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/j21.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20642\" srcset=\"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/j21.jpg 540w, https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/j21-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 540px) 100vw, 540px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Even though we have such an abundance of cats, they&#8217;re easier to manage now that Pumpkin is by himself in an upstairs bedroom.
