So the idea of starting this blog was just to have an outlet to share what's on my mind. The problem is that there's so very much on my mind and so very little time to put pen to paper (or fingers to keyboard, in this case). Discipline, obviously, is needed to remain faithful to this task. So let's just say that I intend to be more disciplined (in this arena, at least).What's on my mind today? How much I miss the East Coast. It's April and it's still cold here (I'm writing this from Rhode Island) and Los Angeles is sunny and warm; but the people, the culture, the friends and family ... that is what I miss. To be sure, I do miss the change of seasons; after all, autumn in New York??? Beautiful, right?
I suppose that I just took it all for granted (I did), and perhaps, if I move back there, I'd take it all for granted once again. So maybe it's best that my family and I stay out West and just visit the East Coast from time to time.
Until this Easter weekend, I've not ever been to the state of Rhode Island. I must say, it's very nice. Would definitely come back here again. So peaceful here in Middletown nearby the water. A good place to be in many respects; one of them being for the food. Spicy quahogs, Rhode Island chowder, lobster for $7 a pound? Come on. Gotta love it.
One of the reasons I think I'm enjoying being here so much is because of the contrast of just staying in midtown Manhattan for more than a week. Nevertheless, I'm looking forward to going back there tomorrow. I'll be staying on 51st Street this time, across from Rockafeller Plaza. Pretty sweet.
Cuisine in Manhattan is killer, too. Has L.A. beat by a mile. Can't wait to sample some more great fare. Until then ...
