NYC - Day 3

so work is getting much more intense - i love it!!! i'm learning so much about stocks and trading - it's freakin fascinating!!!! and all the analysis is soooo much fun!!! working with the new yorkers is really a blast!!

anyhoo - i went to dinner with an old friend of mine, scott hunt, who lives here in manhattan - we have been out of touch for so so many years and here we are right where we left off - he such a good guy - love you scottie! we went to this south american restuarant that was sooooo good - i had this great shrimp dish and he got this rib eye dish - both were phenomenal and the atmosphere is quite nyc'ish - of course he told me that it can't be my favorite b/c there are so many restuarants here that i won't get to eat at one more than once - AND i told him that i have to lose 10 pounds before i leave here and he said that it won't happen becuase we will be constantly eating out :)

that's my kinda friend - the loves to eat out kind :) plus the conversation is good - he's really fun to be around - and the bottle of wine was good too ;)

so, today's list of priorities:

1) being in nyc makes me want to smoke - not that i'm going to but the environment here is very conducive to it :(

2) the banks here suck!!!! totally different than houston - and won't cash my check!!!! aggravating!

3) if my company offered me a transfer up here i would take it in heartbeat!

4) i have met more friendly new yorkers than not

5) i find that everyone talks about houston and houstonians as if we're some aboriginial group of people running around in loin clothes - i mean really new yorkers - have they looked around to see what they are like here? i heard the word culterless many times - it kinda made me mad and i don't take offense to much...

BONUS: i get maid service twice a week up here - i mean they are getting hooked a new level of lifestyle :)

nite nite....
