I've spent the last 24 hours, or so, scheming a way for me to live and work in New York City. If you had asked me when I was half the age I am now what I would be doing when I am the age I am now, I would have said, "living, working, starving, whatever in New York City".

I've hearted NY since I first visited the summer I was fifteen years-old. That city is alive and dirty. Sexy. It scares me and intoxicates me all at once. Now, every time I stand in Times Square and watch the throngs of people press into the theaters at 7:45 while cardboard-scented steam seems from the manholes, I am transported back to that summer. I am filled with my dream to starve my way from audition to audition.

Coming home, I leave a part of myself there. Maybe someday I'll get a chance to go back and find it.

I heart New York too....

Dude, is there anyone who doesn't? Wait, my wife doesn't and that's the reason I don't live there. My two kids love it and all three of us would move there in a New York Minute if not for mom...so instead we're moving to San Diego, where all four of us agree we can live happily ever after...

I Heart New York, Too

I've had an ongoing love affair with New York City since I was a child. Right now, the only way that I can deal with not living there, is to visit every 4 to 6 weeks. I love the smells, the people and the noise. People either love it or hate it. I'm glad to hear that you're a lover, too.

New York is one place that

New York is one place that I've always wanted to go. I like the smell of cardboard.

I'm plotting...

Gonna send my kid to NYU, methinks, so I have an excuse to buy real estate and live there half-time.

START NOW...you have FOUR chances! I only have ONE!

Leaving

It's nice to leave a part of yourself when you visit a place. It makes it that much easier to return and feel at home! Plan another trip soon!!

It's up to you....

New York would be a scary and romantic place to live. Exciting too. Pete took me back there a couple of years ago. I loved it. Didn't soak as much in as I would have liked and I am looking forward to going back there again. I would even consider living there if the situation was good. It would be a change compared to what we do and how we live.

  • I've said it before. I'll say it again. I wish this was my dog.

    Or is it wish it were? I always get mixed up on the subjunctive case.
