SUN 6th JUNE : GETTING THRU TO THE LADY

I did it! I passed through JFK again with no problems. Man, I was sweating. Have been taking note of so many stories recently - and so when I left last week to the UK to keep myself, how they say, 'in status' I was rather worried about my return, to put it mildly.

I don't know what Nick Denton was moaning about a few months ago. Try having a dozen tourist visa stamps on your UK passport (for a year's travel) and your hands shake so much that you have to keep them below the desk so the Immigration (and Customs) official can't see them.

Of course, with the speed of the process I decide to play a trick on the Lady and just turn up on her door (the cell's battery is dead). After going around the AirTrain track twice I finally navigate to the A Line at Howard Beach. I then proceed to wait (along with about 50 other people) for 40 minutes for a train to appear.

When the train finally rolls in I remember that I better call of the surprise and let the Lady know! Better had!

My! The ear ache I got from her! I didn't know that she (and her mother) was worried sick that I hadn't got through!

Just stumbled across the site whilst looking for a site I found not long ago written by a jobless man living in Brighton. Quite odd as I've just subscribed to Vice and its been my dream since visiting NYC to live and work there. Consider yourself inspirational...lol. Cool read.
