Hey, look at this big sign.

No. It's really big. Really, really, really big.

Like, the biggest.

According to the Nokia Press Release:

"A signpost the size of two London buses will be suspended next to the capital's iconic Tower Bridge as Nokia asks Brits to map out - and point to - the nation's 'Good Things'." London, UK - October, 2009

OMO

After returning to the hotel, I couldn't get into the room because I didn't have a key. I killed time sitting in the lobby bar, drinking expensive diet cokes, reading the newspaper. I met up with Logan and the rest of the WSS gang after their show and we celebrated my extended stay by a night on the town.

We wandered around for a while trying to find a club worth going to, because G-A-Y was "members only" which was lame. Just as we were about to give up, we stumbled upon a new night at Astoria called "OMO". They wanted to charge us a cover, but Leo did some sweet talking to get us all in for free. We hung out in this little lounge area for a while, drinking 7 pound shots before we realized that the main action was hidden downstairs. Needless to say, we danced our hearts out, drank beer like frat boys, and had the time of our lives.

OMO is having its grand opening next Saturday, and I would def recommend it.

Stuck

Just when I thought my trip was coming to an end, I was bumped off my flight yesterday. The flights are way over-booked and I'm not sure when I'll be able to get back to NYC. I did however get to spend a long day at Heathrow Airport, pay 20 pounds for some crappy fish 'n' chips, listen to the new David Sedaris audiobook, and contemplate my future.

I can't help but think that this is the universe's way of keeping me away from New York. Plus, I get to spend a few more days with Logan.
