My silences are just too long...

Just noticed I haven't posted since November.
That is just criminal. Part of it was being busy
and part of it was not having my own computer
to write on. Now that I have pulled my "new"
computer together I can write more regularly.
I inherited my boy's old computer and its alright
with me. My computer crashed and I haven't had
the money to get it fixed. So, a 6 year old Mac
will have to suffice for now.

Much has happened since last I posted.
I went from being a server to a bartender
fairly quickly and I am really enjoying being
a reader for YPI. I just have to get on writing
reviews of these plays.

Hmmm...how to give you the gist of
how things have been going. How about lists?

Things I love about living in New York City:

-My apartment is cheap, roomy and coming together nicely.
-I live across the street from a Dunkin' Donuts.
-I have lost weight because of all the walking I do.
-I became a bartender in under 3 months.
-There is great Eastern European food around me.
-Taking the subway means no more tickets.
-I live near Coney Island, corn dogs, AND The Cyclone!

Things I hate about living in New York City

-My apartment is as far as possible from Manhattan and my job.
-The Dunkin' Donuts across the street is Kosher, so NO sausage, egg and cheese sandwiches.
-I gained weight back because of the delicious burgers at my job.
-I hate my job.
-There is ONLY Eastern European food near me.
-Taking the subway means HAULING groceries like I'm a mule and getting home much later than needed.
-The people in this city and their 'affected' way of being is just insulting and infuriating.

So there you have it.
I am still poor, but things are looking up.
My relationship is really great, I am doing work, although peripherally, in theater,
I have a great place to live and great friends.

It could be worse.
It has been worse.

I am so glad its not anymore.
