NYC-again

So, I'm thinking that I'm in need of a trip to New York in August or October. It's killing me that I didn't get to go last year. It will be a new time of year(as I usually go in December). So, here's hoping that I will be able to work this out and I will let ya'll know ASAP :) ... But until then, when do you all think the best time of year to go to New York is?
