new york, new york

i didn't spend any time playing tourist in new york (and didn't take any photos), because i decided to commit to speaking at phpcon east 2003 in april when the weather should be less frigid. but i can already understand the appeal of living there, even with the decidedly non-socal climate. the cost is still a major deterrent, though. you can put it in the column of places i'd live if the right opportunity presented itself. (which is right about where los angeles is, and a notch below san diego.)

i'm bummed that i didn't get to the metropolitan museum of art to see the leonardo da vinci, master drafsman exhibit. it started while i was there, and ends march 30.
