She lives in PA now, so we're both taking the train up and meeting at the Charging Bull, taking a lower manhattan sight-seeing tour, then some shopping...resting up a bit, then dinner and off to see "Rock of Ages" on Broadway.I'm also looking forward to staying in the new hotel right at Rockefeller Center, finally we always go out for brunch before heading back home on Sunday...I am super duper excited!!
2. Are you still eating leftovers from Thanksgiving? No but I'm sure my parents are! There was sooo much turkey and gravy left but unfortunately we're back in FL far far away from it all
3. What is the last thing you quit, or at least tried to quit? Biting my nails! I still tend to pick at my cuticles but my nails are long and in good shape for once in my life

4. What personality trait has gotten you into the most trouble? teasing, my family does it all the time and I grew up with it, but I've realized that many people are much more sensitive and I have to be careful about hurting their feelings (even when I'm just kidding around)
5. Plans for the weekend? try to sleep off this cold that struck yesterday! Other than that, it's a pretty free weekend
