...concrete jungle where dreams are made of. There's nothing you can't do!
It's funny that I never know the exact day I moved to New York. You'd think that would be one of those moments in your life when you'd know all the little details of what was going on that day, but to be honest it's all a little bit of a blur. I don't say that because I tried to forget the experience. Really it all just happened so fast, that it's hard to remember exactly what happened.
About five years ago, sometime in the fourth week of July, I was packing up all my stuff getting it ready to be UPS'd to New York City. Yes... I UPS'd my stuff here. It was only like 8-10 small boxes of clothes, pictures, and personal effects. I didn't have a plan, wasn't sure what was going to happen, but I knew this is where I needed to be.
Somehow I had convinced myself 75 days earlier that if I could make it in New York, then nothing else mattered.... and well here I am. Five years later in love, enjoying life, and living in the moment. All I can say is if and when you ever REALLY want to challenge yourself... go ahead and just do it.
What do you have to lose?

What the hell are you doing?
Okay... okay... okay... I'll come out with it already.
In some ways I'm a little embarrassed to say this because I fear you might judge and say mean things about me, but in other ways it's almost liberating to think that I control my destiny. Yup! I get to sit around in pajamas all day if I want to. It's a big responsibility taking life into your own hands and molding your future.
A few days ago I mentioned I was no longer "working for the man". This is 100% totally accurate and never have I felt so at ease in my life. It's true! You don't realize how stressful life can be, when you're at the mercy of someone else's game plan. How I came to this point though was not as I expected it to be.

I wish I had a yard.
