Welcome to the City

So I think it was (is) the flu that I've been suffering from. This incredible headache is really the most disturbing, along with the congestion. Oh well. It's got to be done soon...right?

Several NYers have regarded me with compassion, nodding their heads and admitting they got sick a lot in their first year in the city, too. Seems that when you cram this many people together in one space, the germs go crazy. Hopefully, I am building an incredible immune system and next year will be easy.

Everyone told me I'd be tired of winter by March, too. I haven't minded the cold at all, even enjoyed it, and it's very mild now anyway. But it's very gray, and we've had a lot of gray. I am looking forward to spring's sunshine and new buds. (meaning flowering plants, but hey, new friends would be great, too!)

Hi there!
Enjoyed the bog. I am wrinting a book called "The 30-Something Backpacker" and when I googled "30-Something", your blog came up.
Interesting, emotional (sometimes I forget what emotional creatures women are), honest. I am not a big fan of blogs normally but I enjoyed it.
Good look in NY!
Cheers,
Conor
