So you can be excited about your new kitchen and your new commute and think you’re going to cook more (and I will, once I buy more food), but if you sleep in to nurse your cold, you’re still going to stop at Dunkin’ Donuts for a turkey sausage flatbread.

But walking to work beats the subway. (Until it gets really cold…)

And I finally *really* feel like I’m living in the city. I’ve had New York, New York stuck in my head since I moved in…

Start spreading the news, I’m leaving today
I want to be a part of it – New York, New York
These vagabond shoes, are longing to stray
Right through the very heart of it – New York,
New York

I wanna wake up in a city, that doesn’t sleep
And find I’m king of the hill – top of the heap

These little town blues, are melting away
I’ll make a brand new start of it – in old New
York
If I can make it there, I’ll make it anywhere
It’s up to you – New York, New York

New York, New York
I want to wake up in a city, that never sleeps
And find I’m A number one top of the list, king
of the hill
A number one…

These little town blues, are melting away
I’m gonna make a brand new start of it – in old
New York
And if I can make it there, I’m gonna make it
anywhere

It up to you – New York New York

New York…

I also may or may not have teared up listening to Empire State of Mind on the
treadmill Saturday morning before the move. And, yes, I am a giant sap.
