As you know, I am a full believer in the magic of New York City. I know a handful of people who have moved there, and every time another one does my heart hurts a little because I want to so bad. Alas, my life does not seem to be going in that direction. But if you move there, I'm buying you a nice comfortable futon because I will be coming to visit often.
And yes, I do occasionally check LJ. Not too many people on my list update regularly, but now that I'm working again it's part of my morning procrastination. Eventually I'll get around to posting an entry of my own.
I had the same experience the first time I saw Dallas. It's kind of weird that somewhere I'd never been became Home, but there you have it. Well written.
It DEFINITELY can be weird. I don't know if it was the city itself, the people that I saw in the city (those who I knew and those who I didn't know..)... it just seems like a combination of everything that just makes me miss it so much now.
I went to see that play with the woman who is now my ex. It was a lot of fun. The whole NYC experience is something that really can't be duplicated anywhere else. I stayed for a week that time in the Millennium Broadway Hotel, a short walk from the theater.
In August of 2004. I'd come to the city to see my cousin in an off off Broadway festival called Fringe, and the woman wanted to see Rent. So, I shelled out 108 bucks so we could just get through the door. lol
We went to NYC a year ago for a family vacation. We had such a wonderful time. Costs a fortune though....but so much fun and nicer / cleaner than I remembered from my 1st visit when I was a kid with my parents. We laughed till we nearly peed our pants at SPAMALOT!!! Couldn't get in to WICKED, but I was able to see that one for less money here in Cincinnati last January. Now I know how you got your LJ name! P.
Yes, Spamalot is hysterical!! And, seeing Wicked on tour is just as good.. I mean, almost. And, yes, much cheaper. For me, it was just about RENT.. I LOVE that show and I have for years and it would have been weird to never see it on Broadway.. plus, again, my friend was in it... so I HAD to go. ;)
