Where's Day???

Well, well, well.... it's been awhile hasn't it?  

I must admit that, for a while there I was contemplating living my life without ever writing in a blog again.  To be honest, despite the occasional spot of embarrassment after reading a six-month-old post, it didn't seem that much different.

For the past couple of weeks, then, I've been digesting the advice of a dear friend of mine whose mission it is to get me back into the Blogging Scene.  Apparently this friend of mine read an article in Southwest Magazine on an airplane and that article told him that people should blog in order to keep their beloved friends, family and random strangers informed as to the goings-on of their life.  Additionally, blogging is good for the maintenance of writing skills as well.  I can't argue with that.

So the goings-on of my life?  Some of that I can't tell you about - confidentiality and all.  But I CAN share my relief that my company survived a sale - and even came out ahead! - which is comforting.  No heads will roll, not even mine.

I also had the great privilege to perform The Rite of Spring with a very talented orchestra just this past weekend.  No, this wasn't a paying gig.  But it was great fun and quite rewarding.  The Rite is truly a masterpiece, but you already knew that.

Otherwise, my life has been filled with exercising every now and then, spending too much money on excursions with my growing circle of NYC friends, having a regular Saturday night movie date in a high rise on 38th Street, listening to J. wish for a better job, and worrying about the ills of society.

That last phrase pretty much represents why I've not yet taken the time to type my most current musings about life in NYC.  I live in a happy bubble of work and play, but there is definitely a sense of looming fear surrounding everything I do.  After all, I'm about 8 miles as the crow flies from Wall Street and all the symbolism that brings.

Nevertheless - if I can get over this sense of foreboding than I shall certainly endeavor to blog more often.  Maybe I'll even post pictures of kitty cats to brighten everyone's feed reader!
