That's all I've been able to think about the last couple of days. Not how fascinating the city is, not how convenient. How filthy. How I want to take a shower every 5 minutes. Good God I'm spoiled, right?
I had to go to the Union Square farmers market today to try to regain my perspective. That place always makes me feel good; like a little slice of heaven a brief train ride away. Dammit, wouldn't you know, all I could think about was how great the Minneapolis farmers market is, and how I wish I could go there right now. Ugh! The Minneapolis farmers market is pretty great - it's huge, there is an array of freshness and options, and you can get fried mini donuts and grilled sweet corn for breakfast at 7:30am! That's how it's done up North. Take THAT New York!
It's clear that my Minnesota pride has definitely kicked in. It might take me a few weeks to return to my fascinating, filthy, New York state of mind.

Oh Veronica, you are so funny! I love NY, but always want to wash my hands every 5 minutes when I am there! Ruth
Look at all those white sneakers! Ya, that's Minnesota, you betcha!
We miss ya, Hon.
Veronica I completely understand your Minnesota love! I too feel that way when I am at school in Ohio and this summer in Los Angeles
V- I feel your pain. Just the other day I was reflecting on how NASTY the city of Chicago can be ... I have a great appreciation for green grass, trees, blue sky, clean people :-)
You'll adjust soon and remember what you love about NYC.
