I'd been the 220-year-old sitting on the fire escape of an Upper East Side studio at midnight after a date, pretending I was Holly Golightly and that my life of parties and dates and occasionally waking up looking at a stranger's ceiling was madcap and magical, not kind of depressing.

The High Line has been a quasi theater before; in 2009, the punk photographer Patty Heffley, who had lived in an inexpensive loft on West 20th Street since the 1970s, turned her fire escape into a cabaret stage in response to losing her privacy to the elevated park, which looked directly into her apartment.

If your company provides "unobstructed free access" to other toilets — imagining, in this scenario, that it operates on multiple floors, not that employees have propped open a fire escape to facilitate backdoor bathroom access to the offices of corporate neighbors — this unholy circumstance may violate the laws of good taste while just barely complying with those of New York State.

This summer, I made a commitment to myself to be outside as much as possible: riding a bike when I could take the subway, sitting on my fire escape when I could be on the couch, and forcing my friends to eat off paper plates while we awkwardly sit on grass or sand when we could be indoors, fully upright, at a table.
