I was telling a friend about my blog the other day. He said, "that's a great idea, but man...if I had written a blog when I moved here it would have been depressing as hell, let's just say my first couple of months were rough!"

In his honor I have decided to highlight some of the unfortunate/uncomfortable things that have taken place to make this blog seem a tad more "realistic" if you will...

1. My feet hurt. Like every day I get into bed and they hurt from walking.
2. It is SO incredibly cold here. Like "put your long underwear on to run errands" cold.
3. Starting over in a sales job is ROUGH - aka sitting in a cubicle making 100 cold calls each day.
4. Don't EVER wear dress pants to work that hit the ground, ever heard of subway grime?
5. Long distance is mis-town. Oh how I miss my bif.
6. Groceries are heavy...forget every buying bottled water or soda, thanks but no thanks.
7. People eat lunch so much later here! Like, who knew???? I need lunch at 11:30am...not 1pm. I'm screwed.
8. I am still adjusting to this whole brunch thing and the day hangover that follows...seems to be a ritual.
9. Miss my besties. sigh.
10. Miss my fam. double sigh.

xxoo, your realist named Mo
