Rants, Raves and Other Updates

It has been awhile since my last post. CAN'T let that happen again. 

I am not one to complain alot, but I feel as though blogging creates a great release. I write this at look out into a sunny day. Spring looks good on you NYC. I almost feel bad for complaining about anything.

Rants

• Not being a morning person and having to squish myself onto an already crowded subway car in the mornings. Morning rush hour by subway is way worse than any car commute. "No really, sir, I love the fact that you are pressed up closer to me than my boyfriend typically is and we share a bed. No big deal."
• Escalator riders. Walk left, stand right people!
• It's hard to make friends as you get older. Meetups, kickball leagues, Non-profits. I will be doing them all come April. I don' t know if I have gotten more particular or if it just gets harder as you get older since people are set in their lifestyles. 
• People complaining on social networds ... Facebook. I know, I know. Complain about other people complaining? Say what?! But seriously, do people JUST use social networks as an outlet to scream and shout and complain about how "bad their life is?" It could always be worse and that is a great motto to live by. Do you have food? A job? A roof over your head? Then you are better off than alot of others. You should be thankful. Times are not always great and obstacles come and go.

Raves

• Spring, obviously. I have been in a weird rut lately. I love this city, but man does it get depressing when you don't see the sun for awhile and it is so cold you don't want to leave your apartment. Not pleasant. Bring on spring!
• My sister and two nieces are coming up to visit on Friday for a few days. I am so excited. It is nice to be able to share my life with my family since they all live so far away. I typically don't get to see them unless I go home. None of them have ever been here so we of course will do the typical touristy stuff. :)
• I miss my friends more than ever. I am lucky enough to have gotten to see one from FL earlier this year and she is coming back to visit me the first week in April. :) There is nothing I miss more than sharing a bottle of wine with my DC gals (now GA, NC, and MI gals).
• Yesterday marked my completion of 30 days vegetarian. Guess what, today marks 31. I haven't given up just yet and I figure, if i am not craving meats, I am going to continue on.

So, thats that. Now that it is starting to warm up, it is time to start running. I have a 10k in June that I am pretty excited about. Thanks to my super runner friend. :) I truly wish I could become that person who just loved to run. Maybe I will ... maybe.

I can't believe I have missed blogging this much. I have been so busy with work + other activities. Sam & I went to Avett Brothers at The Barclay. Great concert, not so great venue. We also saw "All The Way" on Broadway starring Bryan Cranston. Sam was star struck. 

Well, that about wraps it up for now. Busy week coming ... Philadelphia, Boston, oh man!
