Have they passed? With the current economic mess drawing the nation’s ire at Wall Street, and NYC facing a multitude of budgeting problems, I feel that New York City has lost some of it’s luster. Perhaps this feeling is an effect of having been in this area too long (and reading too much about the deathlike spiral of the publishing and media industry based in NYC), but I know that I don’t feel excited anymore when someone mentions New York City to me. I’m wondering if I need a change of scenery, or if I should just try to find optimism shades to put on my eyes. Maybe springlike weather just needs to get here as soon as possible.
