I spoke to my sister who lives in London over the weekend and asked her how her day had been. She told me she spent it at the beach. I live in New York and I spent my day huddled inside avoiding the periodic snow flurries. Can anybody see what is wrong with this picture????? It is cold in NYC! I can pretty much deal with that, but it becomes very upsetting when I hear that the peeps in London have nice weather. Whenever things are grim here, I always take solace in the fact that the weather must be nastier in London, and now I don’t even have that to fall back on so I ask once again, WHAT IS THE WORLD COMING TOO?
In other news, I finally found a new place to call home, so God must have heard my web-based plea for intervention and saved me from the suckage of looking. I feel much better today than I did over the weekend. Fred told me to use my blogfam as in loco parentis so I will. I dislike being a grown up thoroughly because I have to budget. I don’t want to transition into a high-paying job in the private sector that has me working all hours because I love working for the government. Is that so wrong? At the same time, I don’t want to live like a pauper. I want to eat my cake and have it (where does that saying even come from?), evidently I can’t but that somehow seems unfair.
Plus guys suck. But that really isn’t anything new. Being single in New York City is just the worst. Not because I mind being alone, but because you are living the same cliché as millions of other young ladies, and I hate conformity with a passion. A young lady in her twenties who lives in New York and isn’t single is such a rarity, it is astonishing. Those who are dating are sharing their man with as many girls as he can handle without going bankrupt. Bizarre.
All in all though, things are well. All I care about right now is taking up residence in my new digs. It took being separated from all my earthly possessions to make me realise how attached I am to them. I cannot wait to wallow in the splendour of my closet and gaze upon the magnificence of my DVD collection. It should be a fun weekend!
