This time last week, I had just arrived at in Intercontinental Hotel in Times Square, New York.  Check in took a while longer than expected, but the wait was worth it.  Our hotel room was more than halfway up and overlooked 8th Avenue, a block away from Times Square.  We were starving so we grabbed the best pizza in the city (at least, that’s what the online ratings said) and we went to Times Square to eat it.

Then, we went to the M&M Store.

And then we took a nap.  I only wanted to sleep for an hour so I could get ready for the show we were going to, but I overslept just a tad.  It was well worth it,though.  In the middle of our nap, a hotel staffer came to our door and dropped off a plate of fruits and glass bottles of Evian.  Yay, for being Premier Members!  Haha.  It was great.  And those apples were delicious.

After our nap, we got ready for the show Promises, Promises starring Sean Hayes, Kristen Chenowith, and Molly Shannon.  I had been going back and forth with Sean’s people on getting our tickets in order and then getting to visit backstage, and that all came through right at the box office at the Broadway Theater.  The show was incredible.  I’m glad Ben liked it.  It was his first professional theater production.  We went backstage afterwards to see Sean.  His personal dresser for the show loved my shoes and I didn’t have the heart to tell him I had boots in my bag for the walk back home.  

Afterwards, we walked back to Times Square and had dinner at an upscale diner.  I had a burger, Ben had a corned beef sandwich.  Finally, we headed back to the hotel after gawking at the city once more.
