I moved!! Here I am, staring at a beautiful 19th floor view of the Empire State Building. In other words, pretty darned nice digs and my commute to work is an elevator ride, so no complaints there.
But the transition is not easy. There is the freezing weather issue and the fact that I'm feeling sorry for myself because I don't know a soul in the city.
So many things I can do to meet people- sign up on eharmony (dating provided me sufficient social activity for nearly 6 months after I moved to San Diego and didn't know a soul, so I can always try that here), join local societies, find out when the local SMC chapter meets up...but here I am, not doing ANY of those things and just moping while staring at this incredible view. Of course, it takes months to truly settle into a city and I've been here two days and I'm feeling sorry for myself because of the lack of instant gratification.
This blog is so totally my version of cheap therapy..every time I'm stressed/upset about something, just putting it out here makes me feel better and realize what an idiot I'm being--love you guys!
