I don’t know if I’ll ever feel ready for New York
I’m going to New York.
Wait, let me try that again.
I am going to New York City for my very first time ever. And? I will be celebrating my 30th birthday there. Which means I will also be celebrating the final days of my 20′s, in New York City.
I have no idea what to pack. I think I’ll just pack one of everything I own. Better to be over prepared, right?
Did I mention I’m going to NEW YORK FREAKING CITY?
Sorry, I keep thinking if I say it enough times it will actually sink in that I really am going, to New York City, for the first time EVER.
I’m pretty sure this city is going to eat me alive and spit out my remains. Of course I get off on that kind of abuse so I will likely fall in love with the city and pine to move there and live a pennyless existence in a 400 sq foot apartment.
Doesn’t it just sounds so romantic?
New York City…
I guess I should make mention that the real reason I am going is for a blogging convention called BlogHer (see those adds on the side of my blog? Yeah, that’s who puts on the convention).
This will be my second year attending. In fact, you can read all about my Chicago BlogHer adventure HERE.
Chicago was awesome, but I have a feeling it won’t hold a candle to New York.
So, when do I leave?
Taking the red eye out tonight.
So, am I packed?
Haven’t packed a thing.
Who am I traveling with?
My amazing friend Susan!
What do I plan to do while I am there?
Outside of drinking? I’m not really sure. Maybe take a double decker tour bus to see the city, go to Central Park, try not to get mugged, scream, “up yours buddy!” to somebody on the street while giving them the bird.
You know, the normal things.
NEW YORK CITY BABY!
Blogfully yours,
Summer
I forgot about your birthday. Hmmm. Mmmmm. I see “sharpie on the face of the snoring birthday girl” in your future.
New York Freakin City!! 30 years old!! Those are two HUGE things! This kind of stuff brings out your fun and crazy side which is exactly what you need! What better place to spend your birthday? Just do me a couple favors. Don’t have any blackouts (I need to hear all your stories), and don’t talk to strange people on the streets! Love you!!!!!
I am so jealous that you get to go to new york.
I am so happy for you though. Congratulations summer.
