cold worth your while

as i like to say .. if it's going to be miserably cold, then it might as well snow!! needless to say .. when there is snow, this southern girl gets as giddy as a 5yr old on christmas morning!!

and so we had the "blizzard '09" .. at least that's what they are calling it. it wasn't so much of a blizzard though but we certainly got some of the white stuff.

when out and about i kept seeing these pitiful little snowmen .. missing parts and arms made of metrocards. they were kind'a cute though

my city

whenever flying into town and viewing the manhattan sky line i say .."that's my city"

and whenever i cross the brooklyn or manhattan bridge, i gaze about and say .. "that's my city"

yes it's certainly been a love affair with NYC but it wasn't always that way. i never disliked the city but there was a time where i thought something more normal was what i needed ... a house, a car, a yard, big grocery stores, blah blah. a more comfortable life would be nice, but i have the rest of my life for that.

i am exactly where i need to be right now and i wouldn't have it any other way. on any given saturday, where else could i have a momofuko pork bun with salty pistachio caramel soft serve, grab a drink with hundreds of santas, attend a hookah holiday party and well .. so much more!?

i love new york.

the garden

last wednesday, thursday, and friday .. phish played @ madison square garden, just an intimate evening of me and 18,000 of my closest friends. and oh yes .. i went to all three, duh!

ivy and i had 3 house guests and 2 dogs staying with us for the run and on top of all the fun, the additions to our household, and hoards of other friends in town .. i had a photo shoot everyday, thus not being able to take off work. needless to say that come friday i was really dragging.

i had such a great time though and i'm so glad to have shared it with so many friends!!!
