To My Love, On Our 2-Year Anniversary

If New York City was a lover, I would have dumped his ass long ago. But, New York isn’t a lover. And, I haven’t dumped this city. In fact, it dawned on me that yesterday marked exactly 2 years since I first moved to New York.

Two years. Wow. It doesn’t seem like it’s been that long. I’d be lying if I didn’t admit that, at times, I wondered why I’ve stayed as long as I have. However, most of the time, I have nothing but love in my heart for this city and I hope that things work out financially so that I never have to leave. (I’ll post a full retrospective on “NYC: Two Years Later” after I’ve had time to collect my thoughts and write about them.)

She’s quite the sexy b*tch, NYC is. June 12th it’ll be 13 years for me. I was only supposed to stay for 2. Oh well, we survived the 7 year itch…

Chicago misses you, but wishes you joy in the arms of your new city.

ErrorBoy: I used to say, “I’d neeeever live in New York.” Damn it if this city doesn’t has a charm that woos and addicts at the same time.

MamaChristy: THANK YOU sweetie!!! :-)

sid: THANKS!!! :-) We’ll see what the future holds, but I wouldn’t at all be disappointed if I do end up staying here forever.

Paula D.: THANK YOU for the Happy Anniversary wishes!!! :-)

John: And, I miss Chicago! I’ll be back to visit my beloved hometown this summer.

You will, you will!!!! Actually, I see you staying here for a very long time … or, at least until G-Murderer demands that you go live closer to her.
