About Me
It's GREAT...to BE...a FLORIDA GATOR!
I enjoy eating ice cream. I am a lefty. I'm a little bit good at a lot of things. My favorite movie of all time is Father of the Bride (the one w/ Steve Martin). I prefer coffee over tea. I like the vegetables better than the turkey at Thanksgiving. I love beer, and try new kinds whenever I can. I have an obsession with sushi. Sleeping in is my favorite past (and current) time. I will never be one of those people who enjoys running; I'm lucky I even know where the gym is. I love the beach, but rarely go. I am a planner, and always want to know what's coming next, but also love surprises - I can't win! I like to decorate with black and white and throw in splashes of color. Someday, I want to have a white picket fence, 2.5 kids, an Audi wagon, and a few dogs. I also want to take over the world, one lip gloss at a time.
Things I miss in Florida: lizards - as long as they're not in my house, taking 3 showers a day in the summertime in Gainesville, having TIME to take 3 showers a day, tubing and wakeboarding at the river, smelling the afternoon thunderstorms roll in, my raquetball partner, the mall, a decent Target, drinks at Houston's on the water, midnight boat rides on the intracoastal, A1A, laying out on the dock in my backyard, palm trees, my entire family.
I work and live in Manhattan. I have a ridiculous view of Central Park from my desk. I have an apartment that is walking distance to work. I'm trying to take advantage of all this city has to offer while I'm here (which is quite an impossible task)!
Things I have learned from living in New York: 400sf is actually quite large for an apartment, spring time really does exist (and it's amazing), nobody can touch the bagels (the pizza on the other hand loses out to Chicago, sorry), never take the express train unless you know exactly where you're going, having things delivered for free rules, if you don't stop looking at the prices in the grocery store you're going to starve to death, watch out for pieces of garbage in the sidewalk that could potentially trip you and cause embarrassing and painful falls, there's no place like home.
