If God Made You, He's in Love With Me...

I was so lonely without my Charm :( but I'm so damn glad you are back!

glad you had a good time. hate that KB and I missed ya!

I'm so sorry I missed you and KB too EJ. It would have been completely cool to meet you two gents. Next time for sure! :)

:) Thanks everyone for the welcome back.:)

Ben, more pictures shall be coming. :)

Dawn, yup it's good to have a native show you around, but if you stay in the city, it's actually pretty easy to get around. Between most things being in walking distance, the subway and taxi's...

Suze, I'd live there in a heartbeat too! Who knows. Maybe one day the opportunity may present itself. :)

Ana, ya know I felt very safe walking the streets by myself. There were cops almost everywhere I looked, and lots of people. The only thing I wouldn't do is walk in secluded areas. Just not a good idea any place in the US. ;) But if you ever get a chance, you must go!

Thanks for the welcome back Kangamini. :) And hugs back at ya!

Daniel, lol thanks!

Julie thanks! I shall be writing more about my time there during the week. :)

Robin, I haven't lived many places during my life. I was born in San Francisco, learned to talk in Virginia then came out to San Diego with my family. But I have to agree with you, NYC all the way!

Sharron, I totally agree with you. There's so much going on in NYC one would have to be dead to say they were bored. lol

Emperor, same here. I've mainly lived in the burbs all my life. But I could see myself changing things up a bit. :)

Thanks Hannie lovie! Yup Peart kept me company on IM when I wasn't out to remind me where home was. lol

Tiara. I had a blast! :) And yup pictures will be coming.

Thanks for commenting NativeNewYawker. :)

Panthergirl, thanks for turning me on to LastGirlonEarth's site. It's fabulous! And definitely yes I would love to do a NYC blogger event the next time I head out there. :)

Nat I agree. Every native I ran across was friendly and warm. And the tourists I met in my hotel were actually very nice as well. I got lucky on my trip! How awesome it would be to live there. And since you both agree that would be a hard deal to pass up, I hope something does present itself! :)

KB and I missed ya! That's alright. Glad you had a good time.

Give up the goods GB! Let's see your good times. :)

*sigh* I want to visit NYC so badly! But I think I need an experienced New Yorker to show me around so I don't get lost!!

i knew you would. new york is my favourite city by far. mmmm, now i'm dying to go back. i'd live there in a heartbeat.

...and loved my favourite city of them all. oh, how i wish i could live there. some of the nicest, craziest, and best people in the world live there. and i've never felt scared once in the many, many times i've been. Glad you had a good time and welcome back!

You go girl!
Glad to hear you are having fun!
I regret now not taking the time to drive to NY when we lived in D.C. We lived there for 3 years and NEVER did we take the time go drive there.
Honestly, I was always too scared to go. Just cause of all the stories I've heard.... Silly I know...

Groove bunny is back!

Glad you had a safe trip!

Groove bunny is back! *hugs*

Welcome back beautiful. :-)

So glad you're back! Can't wait to hear more about the trip.

I fell in love with NYC the second I set foot in Times Square. Born in Ohio, raised in Indiana, settled in Florida...and if I can't retire in Italy, it's NYC all the way.

I love NYC, no other city even comes close!

I'm a hopelessly suburban guy, but there's a part of me who would love to live in a "deluxe apartment in the sky," not worrying about cars or mowing lawns or things like that....

I missed you Charmie poo. Told peart to tell you hi for me. :) Welcome back :) :) :)

Sounds like you enjoyed your trip! Pictures! We must have pictures! :-)

Hi! Long time reader first time commentor. I'm glad you loved my city! I can't wait to read about the places you got to visit while here!

I'm so glad you loved NYC... of course, I'm biased, but there is just no place like it. All of the "rap" is so wrong. Just look at those little videos that Last Girl on Earth puts on her blog! Next time you come, let's set up a NYC blogger event!

You know, I'd heard the same thing about NYC prior to first solo trip there more than a few years ago. I found a people that were warm, welcoming, and helpful -- you just have to get beyond the dialect is all. The rudest meanest people there were the tourist, including a French family who looked rather sheepish when I told them off -- in French.

Jeff and I have always said that if two high paying jobs were to pop up in NYC we'd be hard pressed to turn them down. Then again I'm an east coast kind of girl. :)
