You made it to Friday. Cuomo and de Blasio are fighting. I don’t care… let our New York Italian-American leaders fight. I have more important things to worry about! I have to decide when to schedule my ten minute afternoon mindfulness meditation that will inevitably end up being only two minutes of me panicking about the future. I have to write a few emails, resisting the ever-present urge to write a long-winded personal account as a P.S. in even the most professional email. I have to get some exercise, and by exercise I mean I have to wander through the streets of Brooklyn aimlessly until I reach a place to buy a donut. When Jennifer Lopez sang “Let’s get loud” at the end of the patriotic song at the Inauguration, she was thinking about me. Speaking of getting loud, are you looking to go to SPAIN this summer? Are you trying to eat some cicadas? Do you want to visit an underwater museum? Looking to ride a train? Picnic like a damn professional? Want to subscribe to the Thrillist Commerce newsletter?! There are so many adventures to go on today. Wow, I’m all tuckered out. I have to go take a nap after reading this newsletter. Sleep is really important. I once read an article that was like “Heather Graham sleeps for 14 hours a night” or something absolutely insane like that. Could be fun. Have a great weekend, [-Ned Riseley, Newsletter Contributor]( [ [( food & drink [] [So You Wanna Cook Cicadas?]( Have you always wondered how to prepare the delicious delicacy that is edible cicadas?

Read this article about some of the world’s most incredible underwater museums, from a 2,500 year-old shipwreck in Greece to an underwater sculpture garden in Cannes to the Grenada Sculpture Park. When you get sick of the Met or the Louvre, consider putting on a snorkel and heading to Davy Jones’ Locker.
