i resolve

well not really but it seems like a good title for the first post of the new year. i am sure it is so original as well.

it has been quite some time since i have blogged. have you been worrying about me yet? you should have been, because times have been a little hectic since we last met. i wont go into great depth of the craziness that has occurred since i returned to nyc, but i will give you a few tidbits.

1. i had a horrible travel day. it started by having a bag that was too late and too heavy which led me to missing my flight. i mean i could blame it on the bag, but in reality i guess it is about time that i start taking responsibility for my actions and say its my own fault i missed my flight. so yeah there it is. i did get onto the next flight thankfully, but then it got delayed and delayed and delayed more. it was terrible. i should have been happily in my home no later than 1pm last tuesday. however i barely made it home by 7pm. not only did i have air traffic issues, coming into the city at 4:30 made for a rough ground commute. therefore my car service was an hour later than expected and i then sat in traffic for an hour and a half. it was a horrible travel day. i was hungry tired and not ready to face the company that then arrived BEFORE me. but i did. and it was fun.

2. then we had company. lots of fun people. two in particular. my friend megan staggs came and we had fun fun fun. such a good visit because she had no plans for coming other than to hang out. loved that. and then my friend jennifer firmin. so fun to see her because we have hardly seen each other in the past year. so it was really good to catch up and have some good conversations. then generally we had a fun group here. good group of people very laid back and fun. we all went to the free saturday night at the brooklyn museum. it was amazing. we were only there for about an hour and a half, but it was such an interesting conglomeration of cultures and people. urban mixed with artsy mixed with hipster mixed with classy mixed with nyc crazy. a very brooklyn art experience i would say. in one area they had a string quartet and ballroom dancing and another area they had a dj with all kinds of get down dancing. oh yeah.

3. after 12 house guests in the last 20ish days (8 that don't count cause i was in dallas) it is good to say things could be calming down a little. dont get me wrong i loved it, but we all like a little routine at some point. and it has really cut into my blogging time. so dont worry its not that i have to make a resolution to blog more its just i have been a little preoccupied in the past 3 weeks. i am sure you all have been too. so its back to work and back to checking blogs! i have much to mull over in this brain of mine and i am sure you all are looking forward to hearing about it. more to come soon.
