They froze paradise, and put up a ice cream shop

Morning duties accomplished:

  • Shower
  • Breakfast
  • Oil change
  • Library
  • Work on time
  • Turn in wedding ring to be fixed... why not, you might ask? Because apparently 114 W. 47th Street on the Plaza is no longer Montanari Jewelers, but a Cold Stone Creamery™.
I like ice cream as much as the next guy, but I was really hoping to stop my wedding band from spinning freely as two pieces (for those who haven't seen it, it's gold filigree inside a 'channel' of the main band - mine's come loose, somehow, and spins like a flywheel).

Huh. I'll try their (old) phone number when they say they open... want to know the real kicker? The story about the Cold Stone opening hit the Star on 9/9/05.

::edit:: With the bountiful help of [livejournal.com profile] starwyse, I located them at their new shop, on the other side of the plaza at 4810 Belleview. It's bigger, though they're not 100% "open" yet...

::further edit:: Aaaaand they're done (about an hour later); damn these folks are good!

Thank you! I figured it wasn't something simple...

Their new shop is nice, though they're not quite fully open yet...
