One of these things is not like the others

Okay, it's pop quiz time. What is wrong with this picture?

a) The hot boy in the foreground is not offering Lizbon candy.
b) The fracking road is in the sky.
c) Lizbon is not at the front of the line (for either boy-candy or road returning to earth).
d) All of the above.

Yes, it's time for everyone's favorite annoying/amusing game - waiting for the drawbridge to come down at rush hour. As usual when I am waiting for a drawbridge (which is admittedly not often), I was torn between being frustrated at having to wait so long and tickled by the fact that my bicycle journey was being delayed by the need for the road to come back down from the sky.

I watched the little tug push the big flat barge through, and thought about how I forget that NY is a working harbor.

Then I rode on my merry way, slightly too oblivious to traffic craziness for my taste (I had a mild migraine and was not at my best). Later, I dined with several young boys, as is my wont, met Miz Fury and her beau for a couple of Campari and tonics, and spent the rest of the evening trading increasingly flirtatious and X-rated texts with the boy formerly known as the blonde.

'Cause that's how I roll, baby.
