Welcome to the NYC, Bitch!

So I really can't even describe what this weekend was like in New York. I had a job interview at HX (that's Homo Xtra for those not in the know) and was offered a job pretty much on the spot. The next day, I was lucky enough to go check out the apartment available with Kevin's friend (and hopefully my new friend) Becki and was pretty much given the green light on that as well.

I know I had been scared, and not that I'm not still a little scared, but damnnnnnnnnnnnnn. It feels good to one realize that I am employable, and two realize that people like me enough to let me move into their place.

And to see Ann, Pete, Dave, Leah, Kara, Jeff, Breton, Rich, Erin, Kevin, Joe, Allison and her beau, Michael and see a bunch of my friends, and to now know that come January, this isn't a dream, this isn't me blowing smoke anymore...I'm making this happen, and I'm going to be back with my friends.

Kind of awesome. I have to say. Seriously.

Fun bits from the weekend:

1) The uppance of come will be had!!!!!
2) (wearing an ascot and in the best stop drop and roll impersonation): I ain't afraid of no ghosts!
3) Ann has balls... Pete is convinced of that.
4) Syracuse and its people...all made of salt.
5) If you send a hamburger back for not being rare enough, you're only asking for trouble. Pete, love that tapeworm, as you're now eating for two. :)
6) DUMBO is a breeding ground for breeders.
7) Dolaks and assorted friends will either try to kill you or at least talk about it, when a super-duper awesome apartment is involved.
8) Pete, Pete, Pete, Pete, Pete...you're being glib!
9) Kara's ring...super pretty.
10) Nintendo Wii is the shiznit.
11) I love my friends (new and old).
12) I can frickin' do this, and living in NYC again is going to be so insanely wonderful that I want to pinch myself.
13) I secretly hope that Becki wants the studio apt, so that I can afford to go outside and do things, but still live in the super duper cute house. But if not, I'll just ask friends to come over, hang out, bring alcohol and pay for everything!! hehe
14) Sudoku doesn't improve your brain, it makes it hurt.
15) Target is hard to get to if Pete's driving.
16) I am so incredible happy and overwhelmed right now...it's kind of hard to put into words what emotions go through me at any given point.
17) I am going to miss Philly (my family, my friends, the city itself), but I know that if I were to let more time pass, I'd only regret it and resent myself for doing so.
18) DTPOOP!!!!!!!!!

OK, night folks....
