It is confusing, but yes is the short answer.

When my parents lived in Greenwich Village, the western extent of the Village was Hudson (which eventually splits into Eighth and Ninth Avnues around Abingdon Square) and the eastern extent was Washington Square Park. Trouble is, all sorts of real estate wants to be called the Village. East of Broadway should be called the East Village, but now you've got to be east of Third before anybody calls it the East Village. The area I love, as my first post re the Village indicated, is west of Seventh Avenue.

Fortunately, the north and south borders have remained the same: 14th Street on the North; Houston Street on the South. And, lest the lack of numbered streets proves confusing, Houston would be zeroth street, if it had a number.

Boy, I'm sure that there are still people, trapped for a week, trying to find their way!West of the North of the East of the South!! follow me!

François I’m so relieved.

Noel, I’m still confused. I need to visualize it and shall have to walk the streets and discover the entire area for myself.

Getting lost in the Village is one of life's greatest pleasures. A week to explore the Village would be heavenly. Here's an easy suggestion: head west, then, if you hit the Hudson River, head east, taking a different street. If you find Tompkins Square Park, head west again. Sounds like ping-pong, I know, but worth every step.

And table tennis is an Olympic sport.

if you hit the Hudson River

Jane would never do that! Nor any other river, matter of fact!
She's not the violent kind!

I made kasha varnishkes this evening, Dear Readers, to accompany the chicken I grilled for dinner for myself and The Dear Mother. They were yummy!

I lived with my parents for 18 years in the same house. What is interesting about our house is that it used to be a doctor's home and he had his practice on one side of the house. When he died, his widow had his office remodeled into an apartment, and rented out the larger part of the house. When my grandparents were dating, my grandma's family rented the large part of the house from them. They moved out of the house later on and it passed through a couple families, until my parents started looking for a house. When they took a tour with the realtor they had all my aunts, uncles, and grandparents come along to see the house. My bedroom is the old waiting room of the doctor's office. (We opened up the apartment side so us kids could each have our own room.)
I spent a year in the dorms, and now am living at my church in the separate, old garage and butler's quarters of a mansion. (Remodeled to be a small two story apartment, but we consider the mansion our home too.) The girls live on the third floor of the mansion.

For dinner tonight, I had a steak filet wrapped in bacon. It was so juicy and delicious! I also had green beans, corn, canteloupe, and grapes with some skim milk to wash it all down.

Part of the plaster that held the ceiling tiles up in the basement collapsed sometime today in the mansion (we just call it the house though) We only found it tonight after Godspell read through. Here is a reenactment of when we first saw it.

Joey · « **Reply #112 on:** September 16, 2004, 10:37:43 PM »

It might be helpful if I mention the fact that the house and garage (We call it The Cottage and the girls have nicknamed it "The Laddies Lodge") are on the church grounds. (The house itself is not the church.) The church offices are in the house with a lot of meeting areas with all the rooms and the worship space and big fellowship hall is just on the other side of this courtyard we have. If I get the chance I may share some pictures because it is a beautiful property.

I'm back from the show and must eat a sandwich and then begin the daunting task of trying to unbox some of these here boxes.

bk · « **Reply #114 on:** September 16, 2004, 11:13:43 PM »

We're very wide here. But since no one is here to see the wideness, what care I? We will achieve a new all-time low this evening. What care I? I am living amidst hundreds of boxes and everyone WUSSBURGERS on me. Very well, then. So be it. It be so. Be it so. It so be.

Joey · « **Reply #115 on:** September 16, 2004, 11:17:50 PM »

Well I am on but I have been quite errant and truant the past several weeks as school, and internships, and leadership programs have taken over my life. How was the show tonight?

JoseSPiano · « **Reply #116 on:** September 16, 2004, 11:50:41 PM »

Good Evening!

Back from the show...

For some reason, there seemed to be a lot of people walking IN the traffic tonight around Hollywood and Vine. It was very strange. People just seemed to be challenging the moving cars.

JoseSPiano · « **Reply #117 on:** September 16, 2004, 11:52:05 PM »

And to celebrate the holiday - and since it's been mentioned a lot on this site lately - I picked up a honey cake at Albertson's. And I've already had two slices. Pretty good. And it was on sale too!

Every time I try to get to the Magnolia Bakery, I always end up getting lost in the Village. But the extra walking actually helps to ease the "guilt" when I actually do make it to the Magnolia Bakery. -Hmmm. How many cupcakes shall I have today? -Oh! You have the Devil's Food Cake with the Caramel Icing? And the Coconut Cake just got put on display? Hmmm....
