Blah...

My blog has been a little slow. And it's because I'm having a hard time finding anything to say other than, "This sucks."

I'm usually a really positive person, but having nothing to do every day, while everyone I know goes to work, is pretty miserable. I've done everything I can think of on the job front, and I've started watching America's Next Top Model marathons on Oxygen. Not exactly productive. It's funny, when I had days off work before I was thrilled to just lay in bed and watch movies. Or get out and walk around the city. But somehow when you have all the time in the world, all you want to do is go to work. Meh.

In an effort to get out of the apartment, I met my old magazine buddies for lunch at the Bouchon Bakery in the Time Warner Center. Their treat of course, on the corporate card. It definitely cheered me up to chat with them and catch up on industry gossip. And they helped me brainstorm fun ways to fill my days. "Ooh, there's an Alice and Olivia sample sale today!" one of them said. Hmm...probably not the best idea for my unemployed budget. But then the other suggested I spend my time going to museums. My old company ID card still gets me into all the city museums for free. And it'd be pretty cool to go during the day and skip the weekend crowds. Plus, can you believe the only one I've been to is the MoMA, and I've lived here for almost two years?

So that's the new plan. Museums. And I'm hoping it will soon be warm enough to actually enjoy the outdoor parts of the city. Seriously. Is it really snowing in April??
