Things were looking good yesterday.

I was having a quick bite with my pal Mike Katz at a fave spot Marta in New York right before my Uber to JFK and my flight home to spend Passover with the family.

Half way to JFK I got a text from American Airlines that my flight was cancelled due to weather. It was sunny outside… naturally.

I called American and the next flight they had for me was Sunday. I yelled a bit and the agent found something for me Saturday. I assumed yelling even louder would get me something better but to no avail.

I figured I would go to airport and find a different carrier but it was a mess of cancellations. I decided to retreat back to the city for one more night and take the first flight out Saturday.

It is the first seder I have missed with family in forever.

I decided to take a long walk through the city, stop somewhere to watch the Leafs/Bruins game and do a little work.

It was a perfect early evening for a walk through the city. Walking the streets of New York are a perfect reminder of how small we all are. It always helps calm me and put life in perspective. You can hustle and chase, but there will always be people doing better, so you might as well soak in life and try and enjoy the moments.

I walked SOHO to get a feel for what was new and nothing much stood out. LULU, Apple and Nike are still the busiest stores. I grabbed a few new pair of Stance socks and a couple pair of AG Jeans (they continue to crush it as well).

I stopped in at a bar on 3rd Avenue on my way back up to Grammercy to watch the second period of the Leafs game. I sat with a young group of people doing tequila shots and having a great time.

I walked home to the hotel for period 3 and went to bed happy that the Leafs won Game 5.

I’m off to JFK to catch a Delta flight home so fingers crossed for seder night 2 with the family in Phoenix.
