East Village–style snowbastard. I mumbled that it looked like he needed a new cig and some lady earnestly jabbed a Pall Mall in my hand. "Some people are veryyyy kiiind…"
I cidered while watching my favorite reality show: snowfall dog run. Hounds in particular look so thoughtful. As usual, I began to imagine having one in the house, and then he opened his mouth. FOGHOOOooorn!
The real adventuring was last night, as it was coming down (and across and over). After mixing martinis and such for the first half of the night (apparently successfully), I packed a flask and headed down to Damon Dash's house to see Talk Normal.

First Ave, storm hitting its stride.
Sixth Ave at 10th St.

Snowstorm, meet flash.
Looking at Fifth Ave. There's a street there somewhere.
Hey Balvenie, you remember this??
This door leads nowhere but it looks nice anyway.
