New York-You know you make my heart skip

Today was lovely.

Work consisted of more transcribing....I'm well over one hundred pages now.

I found out this evening that one of my short stories is actually going to published! That was an unexpected, fun little surprise.

Tonight was fabulous. I ventured with three friends to the Upper East Side and then to Dylan's Candy Bar. I'm so lucky to have met these girls! I am honestly so relieved to have gone from being completely alone in this city to meeting some really great people! NY is feeling more like "home" everyday.

It was so wonderful to walk on beautiful streets that are actually quiet. I think I had forgotten what "silence" sounds like over the last few weeks because it is a foreign concept over in mid town. Oh the Upper East Side...sigh...

If you ever make it to Dylan's, I highly recommend the Candy Bar Explosion ice cream. :)

I can't wait for the next few days. Kylie coming to visit + Friday night out with the girls + Beach? + Yankees/Mets game on Sunday = a very promising weekend.





Blake likes jelly beans and Penn likes Reeses Pieces :)





I think now is a good time to document, in writing, that Paige and I have officially decided to do the Tulsa run this year :)

  1. Jen I love reading your blog. I have never really had the desire to go to New York but you are selling me on the idea! :)
