I love to walk around by myself. It makes me feel limitless. Naturally, I'm drawn to the musician who bears witness to their city. Two classics that come to mind are Lou Reed and Joni Mitchell. A record I've had on repeat lately is Allegra Kreiger's I Keep my Feet on a Fragile Plane. It's full of onthestreet reflections. "A Place For It to Land" and "Low" kill me; it's an album for the lonely flaneur in all of us.

This is my #1 absolute all time favorite activity. If you have approximately 2 hours (ideally in early fall or early spring) with nothing in particular to do, take a walk around the city with no destination in mind and see what happens. Maybe you’ll make eye contact for a moment with an attractive person in the crosswalk on 17th and 3rd and see your entire lifetime together flash before your eyes. Or you could catch a glimpse of yourself in the reflection of a Chase bank and remember that you are indeed a person who is alive and on planet earth. Maybe you get an overpriced coffee for some human interaction, drink 2 sips and throw it out while feeling bad about yourself. However you choose to spend that time, it’s yours to waste, and a way to experience the city without the errands and dramas one usually faces in New York. And it’s a great way to hyperfixate on a guilty pleasure song. Recommended tracks for this activity: “Bittersweet Symphony” by the Verve or “I Had a Dream That You Were Mine” by Hamilton Leithauser and Rostam.

I psych myself up for eating fruits and veggies by imagining what it must've been like to encounter them for the first time in the wild. Can you imagine being the one to eat a tomato for the first time? Anyway colon cancer is on the rise so eat your fiber.
