Wow, it’s been a year

In New York City, San Francisco, life, work on March 2, 2010 at 12:04 am

Since my last day at eBay Inc, you can find last year’s blog post here. I am really appreciative of all that I gained from eBay, including the opportunity to start all over and do it my way. I live in NYC now because of it, and will eventually go back to San Francisco, all on my own terms. (I rock)

In New York City, San Francisco, love, travel on February 24, 2010 at 12:42 pm

It really isn’t that far fetched to think that one could live back and forth between 2 cities. Perhaps its a little cumbersome and you end up purchasing way too many $10 cans of beer, but you do get some nifty mood lighting.

I absolutely LOVE Manhattan, I do not want to leave. (but) I also feel the same way about San Francisco which I left back in July. I have relationships in both cities, and I feel alive and at home at both, so what’s a person suppose to do?

I started calculating the amount of money I spend on certain things, such as nightlife or those “legit” massages (as opposed to the wonderful $40 ones in Chinatown) and I tallied up the fact that I could probably fly to SF once every 2 months for a long weekend (thurs-mon). On top of that, I’m sure if the people behind the @virginamerica counter saw me so frequently, they might start calling me by my first name without having to look at my ticket.

I guess the purpose of my post is to ask the question, have you done this before? Was it worth it? Pros? Cons? please let me know

Thank you Ticketmaster

In Concerts, love, music on February 18, 2010 at 10:45 am

But “no shit”, I do in fact remember that the Bon Jovi concert is this Monday at HP Pavilion. Aside from the fact that I love Bon Jovi, I still vividly remember the surcharges and fees you stuck me with on each ticket. I actually added them up and I could have purchased a new cardigan at a plethora of fine retail establishments (if you consider Gap to be one). Side note: I don’t really wear cardigans but the word was more impactful than “sandals”.
