Catching up...over drinks

I feel like this weekend is a good weekend to finally update my blog.  It's been weeks since my last post and my life has just gotten crazier and I'm still learning that there is so much in the world. 

I had my first full blown Williamsburg night this weekend.  And it was eye opening the amount of activity that is available to me in my own backyard.  I never realized that I could have so much fun on my own island, without ever having to cross the East River.  The Manhattan parties will always have a spot in my heart but I was equally content in Brooklyn.  Also, the people continue to amaze me here.  Everyone has such an open mind and is so down to earth.  I mean, as far down to earth as you get in New York City anyway.  It was just nice to see regular people and not the social elite that control Manhattan and its various clubs and bars.  It was the first time that I was also totally OK with not trying to go home with anyone.  It was amazing to have that sort of freedom.  I literally just danced and listened to the music.

I think people should try that more often.  Dance and feel how liberating the music can be.  I've also been listening to a lot of Lana Del Rey.  That's probably why I feel so depressingly free.

Gotta live it and love it.
