Hello NY....and NYC! HA! I have been home for 6 days....wow time flies. I have seen several old friends, some older than others, but all from spots in my life that were full of emotion and amazement. I have been to the city twice and will be in again tomorrow and monday. All that money I was saving by coming home is quickly being used up on train fair and meals. I am amazed at how much I love the social scene of NYC. It is absolutely ridiculous how expensive things are and yet money is spent as if it were nothing. I had the most fantastic glass of Pinot Grigio from McMinnville, Oregon on Friday night. It was so good I got another one, which left me with $10 to my name in cash (I had come into the city with $60 but with train fare and what not....you get the picture...the glasses of wine were expensive) and a picture I took of me and my friend. I am not paranoid at all this trip. I am slowly easing myself into the City to see if I will have a panic attack. So far so good but the pills are on me just in case. We shall see how tomorrow goes. I will be with a new friend, but an old soul that I love dearly. Twill be awesome.
