Move to NY?

I'm still relatively new at this whole blogging thing and am still trying to grasp what it's all about. "But what does it all mean?" Since I was introduced to this whole shiny new blogging world, I have taken to reading other people's blogs. A lot of them are by people I don't know. I have become attached to them and eagerly wait for new posts like a drooling dog waiting for a treat... seriously, I drool, a lot, at work, waiting for posts, not treats. I don't consider these other people real. They are more like characters, like on a TV show, except with reading, not TV, because I can't watch TV at work. But you know what? They are real. Like me, I'm real. But most of them live in New York. Why is that? The Internet is everywhere so why do most of the blogs I read originate in New York? This leads to my follow up question, what the hell am I doing in Boston? And also, should I live in New York? It seems like if you have a blog, that's the place to be. Maybe more blog worthy material happens in New York than other cities. That's crazy talk! Shit goes down in my neighborhood. Well, no, not really. Maybe bloggers want to be with their own kind and chose New York as the place. Or maybe only the really cool bloggers that I read are from New York and only lame bloggers like myself are from Boston. (Check the standings, Boston does have this over New York). You know what I think? I think it would be a really lame reason to move somewhere because I have a blog and there are a lot of other bloggers (that I read) in that place I would be moving too. Right? Anyway, I'm off to look at apartments.. in New York! Didn't see that one coming, did you?

Don't tease me like that - it's torture! I've actually been looking around recently to buy a place here. If that ever does happen, and there's an extra BR/apt, you're first on the list if you want it.

Dude, B, come on man, you know how I role. I'm looking to buy as well. Just need to figure out a city.

Ive heard Croatia is nice this time of year.

J said...

True, I hear that too about Croatia. Unfortunately I am looking for a place year round - not just a summer home. Any other suggestions anonymous?

Romania? If you want really nice though, it would be France.

Bryan said...

Actually, for those of us who have actually been to France, it's pretty f'n awesome.

Spoken like a true Frenchman who likes hairy pits...

I'm glad this has become the forum for the great debate: France vs. Germany.

New York is overrated, but it’s fun nonetheless. I’d vote for New York, although it seems I missed the deadline  San Francisco would have been my second option.

Hey A Margarita, the polls are still open. I'm hoping to go at least double digits in votes.
