Use New York

but…
in some ways, yes, i am, in a quieter way…

sinking into my neighborhood and apt a bit…

using NYC a fair amount, off and on…

enjoying the feeling of getting to know the place.

(though the dirtiness and the people hacking on the subways without covering their mouths still appalls me…)

but still, all in all, have been “Using New York”

Could I be “using” it more efficiently, more intentionally? Of course. But remember, it’s about Something is Better than Nothing.

i’m going to go to an off-Broadway play tonight, and what’s cool is that my friend from work (who is now working for a theatre company) was able to get the tix at a discounted rate, so i won’t be breaking my budget to go…

:-)

yay!

will tell you all about it when i get back…

for proof, take a look here

:)

classes
(writing, painting, dance)
events
(films, plays, ballet, theatre, opera)
bookstores
(so many)
cafes
(so many, but have a fave)
walks
(walking tours, walks in the parks, walks in the neighborhoods)
museums
(so many)
parks
(so many, but i guess the top two are Central and Prospect)

i will be NY and NJ based, for some time. Am in “for the long haul” as they say… since my dad is on the heart transplant list…

so i should then open up to the possibilities that exist in this impossible city of NY.
