How much snow is on the ground in Manhattan? I'm thinking about driving in tomorrow but would want to park on the street, if there's not too much snow.

"You travel alone because other people are only there to remind you how much that hook hurts that we all bit down on. Wait for that one day we can bite free and get back out there in space where we belong, sail back over water, over skies, into space, the hook finally out of our mouths and we wander back out there in space spawning to other planets never to return hurrah to earth and we'll look back and can't even see these lives here anymore. Only the taste of blood to remind us we ever existed. The earth is small. We're gone. We're dead. We're safe." -John Guare, Landscape of the Body

If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

Thanks, everyone! I think I'll chance the driving. Hopefully some of the tourist traffic has died down, and I'll be able to find street parking!

The day before New Years Eve, you think the tourists have died down? Seriously?

Mike -- the tourist are just packing in for New Year's. I'd take public transport too!

I was in Manhattan on Friday and Saturday and it was packed. You could barely move. We would walk two blocks up from the TImes Square area so we could actually walk without being swarmed. I imagine it is just going to get worse as we get closer to New Year's Eve. Tourist traffic won't be dying down until mid-January.

Thanks, everyone, for the advice! I never go to NY during the holidays because the tickets are more expensive. I'm only going because I'm a Lincoln Center member so the prices are the same. It sounds like the craziness is worse than I thought. The train it is!

Take the train and avoid Times Square at all costs. Since you're going to Lincoln Center, that will be more than doable.

Too bad Manhattan doesn't feel the same way.

Thanks again everybody for your advice! The train was crowded but not crazy crowded. I saw Golden Boy and Vanya and Sonia, and I enjoyed both of them a great deal. (And everyone was in, and they were all very nice at the stage door.) I'm sure it was a less stressful trip than it would have been if I had tried to drive!
