You really know you live in an odd place when you cant walk down the street in front of your building to get to the subway, but have to go the long way round.
This morning, Broad and Wall were completely overrun with journalists and camera crews.
And lots of people looking very, very tired.

Homesick
So so so so so many lovely things have happened over the last few weeks, but I have been to busy enjoying them to write about them.
And now that they are over, thinking about them is making me too sad to write about them.

Gym
I must be old. I know this because I have had to join a gym.
No longer am I young enough to eat whatever I want and not put on weight.
And, more importantly, no longer am I young enough to go to the gym at 8pm when I get home from work and not get over tired and cranky.
So from now on I shall go to the gym in my lunch break.
Or at least, that’s the plan.

Rebel
Oh its so good to know I haven't lost my rebellious streak.
Over here, there is a "rule" that no one wears white after Labor Day.
Summer is over, and its back to black for all trendy Manhattanites.
Well, Labor Day was Monday, and this morning I got out my long, white skirt (which I haven't been able to wear yet this summer because its been too hot) and put it on, with all the swagger of a teenager getting their first tattoo.
Yes, I am a bad-ass mofo.

Beach
Another weekend, more sun!
We went out to Long Island again to see Andy and Vicky and go to the beach.
It was lovely.
People over here declare summer over on August 31st and seem to already be winding down to it, but it was so warm and sunny all day that in London it would have been the best day of the summer.
I am having none of this and shall resolutely be wearing white until at least October.
Vicky and I lay in the sun while the boys fished and then we had a lovely BBQ.
The beach is so nice and clean and quiet and we even swam because the water wasn’t too cold.
It really felt like we had been on a little mini holiday, and coming back into the city the next day was rather sad.
