"We don't accomplish anything in this world alone ... and whatever happens is the result of the whole tapestry of one's life and all the weavings of individual threads from one to another that creates something."
--Sandra Day O'Connor, first woman U.S. Supreme Court Justice

Just thought this was an appropriate quote for me today. I am feeling more and more how everything is inter-conncected.

For some reason, I feel like today is one of those days I will remember for the rest of my life. Like a corner was turned. I'm shedding the weight of winter and not looking back. Spring is making me feel more awake, alive, fearless. I forgot how great it was to feel Spring. Living in LA you don't really notice the change of seasons very much. Being back on the East coast means I get to have that awakening again. Ah, it's good. Life is good.

Where in the world is Perkidiablo?

Sorry for being MIA for the past few weeks. Work was uber busy and I had lots of bday celebrating to be doing so was remiss in writing. Lets just say I had a fantabulous birthday complete with this awesome new "laptop bag that so doesn't look like one because I'm a hip new yorker" purse you see in the photo. I was spoiled all around by family and friends. Then over St. Patty's day my good friend I came for a visit and we trekked all over the city. I now know more than I ever wanted to know about bargaining for faux purses on canal street! :) We also attended my friend N's engagement party which was lovely. The food was incredible.
Work has been busy but I'm still finding time to play with friends. Tonight G and I are going to some cocktail party being thrown by Rolling Stone magazine. I guess there is free booze which cannot hurt. I am feeling more and more at home here in NY which I'm happy to report. I guess it just takes time for even a change lover like myself to acclimate to a place so big and full of energy. It's hard not to get swept up in it all sometimes but I'm trying to keep myself as grounded as possible. Cooking chicken fajitas the other night helped that. I guess Mexican has really become my comfort food. LA will always stay with me or perhaps it's because my mother loves Mexican so much that I'm surprised I was not born Mexican.

I want to be domesticated! We got our new rug for the living room last night. I love all 5 by 8 feet of it. I'm really digging the blue and brown action. I think we are going to get some blue/white pillows for the couch that will look great with it. I made meat loaf for dinner last night. I really do sound like a 50 year old getting excited about rugs and meat loaf! :) Heck with it, I'm happy so that's all that matters right?

So I already knew I had an amazing sister-in-law but now it's official. C took G and I to see John Mayer last night at Madison Square Gardens. It was an amazing concert and Alicia Keys came out and closed with him. So much fun! I had never been to MSG so it was cool to check that venue out. Check out John and Jessica. I mean, I'm soooo much cuter than her right?
