My NYC girl

This is Skip, Im off to NYC for the weekend to try out for a reality show, should be interesting. Nikki and the girls are staying here in Austin.

It will be kind of hard being there without Nikki. I have so many memories of various places in NYC that are strongly associated with Nikki, where we worked, places we hung out together, places we acted silly together, our restaurants, places we took Zoe as a baby.

Nikki made a lot of really good friends in NY, she fit in NYC better than any place we have ever lived. She knows her way around the subway system like a pro, and she can walk through a condensed crowd like a fish moves in water. When we had Nikki's 30th birthday party at Gobos in the Village last year, I was amazed at how many friends she had, the whole table was full of her buddies, when they sang happy birthday the restaurant became quite the song was so loud. The reason I’m saying all this is that it will be strange being in NYC this weekend without her, because Nikki is more of a New Yorker than I could ever dream of being, and all those places I see in the city that I associate with her, the memories will come back and she wont be there to share them with ( I guess I can always call her though).
