I watch CSI: New York. And it's so bleak and gray.
Then I watch Sex & The City and you couldn't pry those gals out of New York City with a crow bar.
You either love it or hate it.
The hustle and bustle today would kill me. And all those CABS! Goodness! :)
I do both.
I would never trade the first 22 of my life growing up there for anything in the world.......but there is absolutely no way on earth I want my 6yo daughter to grow up there. And there is no way I could imagine going back to that way of life.
When we decided it was time to move out of Dover, DE we actually could have gone anywhere because of the company my husband works for. We chose to stay in the same "territory" he was already in because he likes his coworkers and neither of us were interested in "big city."
Yup, this "big city" gal is perfectly content living in the middle of nowhere, with 150,000 chickens as my nearest neighbors in rural Virginia.....unlike my friends in Delaware, where I spent most of my adult life, or my friends in NYC where I grew up, I can have a cigarette with my coffee or beer when I go out.
And on that note - I take a temporary leave to run some errands......FReep at you in a bit.
