Last month, I snagged a rush ticket to one of the many, highly anticipated shows hitting Broadway this spring, Second Stage Theater’s production of Take Me Out.

This week, I saw two spectacular shows that just recently hit Broadway: • Plaza Suite — An inside look at three different couples’ experiences in Suite 719 at NYC’s Plaza Hotel — A couple on the verge of divorce on their anniversary, a big-time Hollywood filmmaker and his high school girlfriend, and a married couple…

It’s been basically a week since I left NYC. I’ve spent that time visiting Kyle in Rochester (yay, Amtrak!) — and what a difference a week makes! Here are just a few of the withdrawals I’ve experienced so far (I think some might be considered more deposits than withdrawals, but you get the idea): Grocery…
This is my last week in NYC. As I've been thinking of all of the amazing things I’ve seen and done since moving here last September, I wanted to commemorate the highlights here as well. So, here is my year in NYC by the numbers: 2 jobs 5 apartments viewed in 1 afternoon before selecting…
