new york new york

okay, so i've finally got my shit together to write. sorry it has taken me so long... it's 6am in new york, and freezing cold. i've been awake since 3am; a combination of jetlag, excitement and strange sleeping patterns keeping me awake. i start my first day at work today. it will be good to finally start, after a year long process since i first sent my resume in!!

new york is great. i've been having a really good time catching up with old friends and making new ones. tim, stu, nicki and liz came over last night for dinner and drinks, which was lovely. i have a very nice apartment, albeit only temporarily until my furniture arrives. hopefully when i find somewhere more permanent to stay, it will be big enough to have friends over... as i'm sure you all know, rent here is outrageously expensive, especially at the moment, with vacancy rates at 1%. manhattan has a lot of very expensive shoeboxes...

okay, seeing as it doesn't look much like i'm going back to sleep, i'm going to do some yoga before work... hehe that sounds so funny.

ps i have skype now... my username is m dot lancaster, and i even have a camera in case you wanna have smiley chats...

i haven't taken many photos yet, but the few i have are on flickr...

will let you know how the first day goes!!
