Pennsic Re-Cap

Like I mentioned previously, I spent all last week in Pennsylvania at an event called Pennsic with my sister & her boyfriend Kris. And like I thought, it was absolutely insanely hilariously quirky & intense. Probably what I liked about it the most were the parties (obviously), people watching, and all the great people that [...]

Imagine Being Married To Nicholas Sparks....

You can hardly turn on the television or look at movie previews without Nicolas Sparks’ latest & greatest  being mentioned. And you know what… I am getting sick & tried of him.  How does the man do it?  Nick is probably the biggest hopeless romantic that has ever lived. Between “The Notebook”, “Dear John”, &  [...]

Pigeon On Train!

One of the things I love the most about New York is how often odd things seem to happen at otherwise normal times a day.  Last Wednesday I was heading into the city for an open interview for a manager position at a veggie food place.  Lately I’ve been trying to broaden my search & [...]

The Mole

I don’t know about you, but I am soooo OVER piercings. I feel like they hit their boom back in 2001-2002 and now should be something few and far between.  The only exceptions should be:

if it’s part of your culture
a piercing that has been there forever
or if it fits your personality perfectly. I’ve met people [...]

Skipping Down Memory Avenue

Today’s my last day of work! The early morning long commute & slow work days are over!! I am BEYOND ecstatic and oooooh so ready to return to my life of leisure & creativity.  But alas, with the job coming to the end, so does my romance with New York.

Over the next couple days, I am going to be [...]

Crazy People

I adore crazy people.  Maybe that is what draws me to New York City.  Here, it is a free-for-all to be as out of your mind as possible.  No one is going to bat an eyelash if you  sing and dance around the sidewalk, talking to buildings  or raising kittens in a cart on a [...]

While Swimming Through A Sea Of Suits..

When you swim in a sea of suits on almost a daily basis, it’s nice for some thing random to occur to shake things up a bit. Otherwise all the usual forgettable occurrences win – people rushing this way and that obviously late for something, others waiting on line at their favorite street cart for a morning [...]

Lounging Around Time Square

I don’t get why they thought this would be a good idea or appealing…

God help me if I went on vacation to New York and this was what I was in store for. A weird ironic joke where they are asking for peace and relaxation in the land of chaos.

But apparently, people (as [...]

More Fun Times In Central Park

As I’ve mentioned in posts past, when the weather is nice, I usually go to Central Park to eat lunch & enjoy my break.

The one thing that I loathe about Central Park in the summer is the sea of children that goes along with it. It makes sense: warm weather + no school + zoo, fun, [...]

103 Love Songs

While riding the bus home on Monday, I was deeply involved in the book  I was reading.  Getting so immersed into a book is the best. That way, time moves right on by.  Otherwise, I look out the window and mentally beg and plead to get home faster.

After awhile I took a peek up to see where [...]
