I need to hit the road
Dan brought a friend over yesterday. She is from New York City and along with her boy friend, were visiting over the weekend. I have met her before and really enjoy talking with her. Her boyfriend seems like a real nice guy. As Harry Carey would say, "He's a good looking young man." That always caused me to ponder Harry a little more than I should.
Anyway, I digress.
They are New Yorkers, and I am fascinated by that. I think New York City would be an amazing place to visit. I have always wanted to go to Macy's Thanksgiving parade, take a carriage ride around Central Park, visit the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island, ride the subway, eat gooey New York pizza, walk the boroughs......and see a play or two. I could even reconnect with my second cousin Jimmy and his wife, who regretfully I have never met.
That's more than a weekend.
I keep thinking someday....but then realize my somedays are getting fewer and fewer.
At least I can talk to people from there and live vicariously through them and Facebook pages.
I keep remembering that Dilbert quote: If you are always want more, you can never be happy with what you have.
That is me...to a t. And folks, sometimes it hurts to be that way.
