NYC Midnight: Genre, Location, Object

NYC Midnight has just notified us of the genres, locations and objects we're to write on. I decided two days ago to participate and didn't start getting nervous till this morning.

But I did deliver it that sunny Saturday afternoon, sandwiched between a baptism and a wedding. I decided to share it publicl
