My Love Affair

Y'all, I have a confession to make. I'm in love with someone other than my husband. Her (yes, her!) name is....

 
{New York, New York, the electric city...}
 
I'm obsessed. Ever since I started watching Smash (ohmygahsogood!), I just can't get enough!! I daydream about going to see her (what? Aren't all cities considered women??), I google pictures of her while I'm at work, I sing songs about her. Yup, it's pretty bad.
 
So, I've decided that I need a trip to see my new gal. Now, here's the thing, unless y'all are going to hold a fundraiser for me, there's no way I'm going any time soon, but I swear, I'll get there one day!! I may be 98 years old with one foot in the grave, but I swear I will!! But, in the mean time, I have to settle for drooling over her gorgeous photos, reading articles about things to do while I'm there, writing love letters to her on my blog, and watching this:
 


{All I ate today was a bagel...}

Anynewyorker, I'm compiling a list of things to do once I get there. Number one on the list?

The Whispering Corner at Grand Central Station

Let's forget for one second that when you're standing in this corner, it looks like you're... relieving yourself, m'kay? Other than that little tidbit, the whole being able to whisper across the room to someone is so utterly romantic to me. This is definitely the first stop.

Then, we'll head over to

Top of the Rock

The views from the observation deck of  the Rockefeller Center are absolutely stunning. So what if I'm afraid of heights, we'll handle that once we get there!

Then, we'll grab some type of street food, and swing by

Central Park

We'll visit Strawberry Fields, the Central Park Zoo, and the Shakespeare Garden, then call it a day and head back to the hotel.

So, there you have it, that's my plan for my first day in my new favorite city. Have you ever been? Do you wanna go? What's something you'd want to see?

I hope you all have fabulous weekends! There won't be a Saturday Sensationals tomorrow because I've hardly spent any time on the internet this week, but be sure and come back on Monday to meet some really special ladies!! X's and O's, my darlings!

I went there for the first time at Christmas and I'm pumped to be heading back there in August for BlogHer.

Maybe I'll be able to go to some of those since I couldn't the last time.

I don't live far from there so I've been there often. I love everything. I've done all the touristy things, so now when I go, I get fake LV bags and shop!

Are we meant to be friends? Because I look for NYC apartments for fun. Even though I live in Chicago. I AM OBSESSED with NYC, and I, too, love SMASH! Such a great post!
