2006 was a great year. It was incredible living in New York and working at home. I got the chance to experience the best of the city without it being crammed into a weekend. Before I moved to New York, I liked the city based on a couple short visits. Now I LOVE New York.

I was in California and Arizona over the winter break. The weather was perfect and I could drive my mom's MINI around everywhere with the windows down. We went to Arizona for a week so I hung out with my cousins there. I even saw Corinne for a night in Tempe.

Then I went back to LA for the New Year's celebrations. On Saturday night Alvaro had a dinner party at his house (thanks, Alvaro!) and on Sunday night Becca had a New Year's gathering at her place (thanks, Becca and Lindy!). It was perfect to spend New Year's Eve with so many friends.

I don't have any definite plans for moving back to California yet, but February 2008 will make 2 full years in the city. I am pretty sure at that point I will have accomplished everything I wanted to see in New York. I am getting through my New York to-do list pretty quickly.
