How To Enjoy Being Alone
I was lingering in the doorway of the yoga studio on Sixth Ave the other day, slowly putting on my socks and sneakers, when I overheard a man, probably about 30, tell his friend the details of an upcoming trip he was taking.

PETS OF THE WEEK
Rowdy
Rowdy is a Toy Australian Shepherd who is 2 years old, and originally from a farm in Missouri. He took his first plane ride and moved to the Big Apple in 2021 and currently lives at home with his mom and dad.
He is the best boy who loves cuddles, walks, treats, and tearing apart boxes. He helps with house chores such as, cleaning up crumbs, dragging grocery delivery bags from the front door to the kitchen, un-fluffing pillows, and provides 24/7 love.
Rowdy is not a fan of baths, vacuums, or skateboards — he believes the world is better off without them. His words, not ours. He enjoys the occasional pup cup and visiting his friends at the dog park.
Current status: napping (with mr. duck).
