I love the way the teachers, firefighters & police officers supported eachother this month at the rally for higher pay.
I love that high possiblity of meeting someone who went to your HS on Long Island or knows someone who did.
I love that I live here. I love that my Jersey friends introudce me as "This is Michelle, my friend who lives in the city" it just makes me glow!!

I remember the blackout all too well. I was pleasantly surprised to find that most New Yorkers were very nice and helpful toward one another. I still remember riding the bus in Brooklyn and passing by bars where folks were just sitting and relaxing as if nothing was wrong, just taking everything in stride.
We are survivors!!!! 
Oh yeah - GO BROOKLYN!!!!!
I love the way the teachers, firefighters & police officers supported eachother this month at the rally for higher pay.
I thought that was the sweetest thing.

Steel Drums
This morning, a guy was playing steel drums on the platform at the Broadway-Nassau station. I could have sworn that I saw palm trees waving in the tunnel wind behind the A train.

That even though it is such a large city it really is a small world. I swear, wherever I go it seems there are "circles" of people who know someone I know here in NY! You can never get away from anyone LOL.

Gotta love the A train. You can get some real live entertainment on that line.

The Yankees. The Knicks. The Rangers. The food. Always something to do. The shopping. Central park. The subway.

I love the fact that I got to have dinner with lots of my sisters tonight in Little Italy and that MetroDPhiE is now an offical chartered alumnae association.
I also love the fact that all my neighbors are so friendly when they see me walking my puppy down the block. I love that there are blocks to walk down.
I love the fact that my neighborhood is so extremely diverse~~much much different from the area I grew up in.
I love my new job in Queens. I love that I get to spend a lot of time in Far Rockaway near the beach. You forget you are in the city.

I love that everything we could possibly need is here in the city. But it's great that we can get away from it all, if only for a few hours, thanks to NJTransit and the LIRR. Like my trip out to Long Beach, Long Island today

Even though I have never been to NYC, the one thing I absolutely love about NYC is the male Brooklyn accent on an NYC Italian-American. Love the dark features and accent! That's the sexiest thing alive . . . an Italian-American with a Brooklyn accent!
I know! I am so silly!

Oh god yeah! I went to California and was dying with those hockey pucks they "call" bagels. Even Dunkin Donuts bagels are slammin compared to those awful pieces of bread-like stuff. It's the NY water though that does this. That is why our pizza is the best too!
