Moving back to the city

So I did this once before, fairly successfully I think. My goal here: to again keep all of you not lucky enough to be in NYC abreast of what I'm up to. Also, as you will soon know, I am again embarking on a new venture which will take up most of my time. I've had a great laid-back, easy summer on the farm. And now I'm going back into the heat. I'm currently trying to find an apartment in NYC, hopefully in Manhattan this time, as the commute will be shorter (barely).

Last Saturday I spent most of the day wandering -although not aimlessly. I had really good maps and a complete game plan and schedule - through Brooklyn. After that, I decided that I wasn't sure if I wanted to live in Brooklyn again after all. I mean, it is filled with hipsters, who are fairly depressing and absurdly disgusting people. those of you not in NY may know them more as 'scenesters' or as 'those trust-find kids who have too much time on their hands and too little to do with it other than think of absurd descriptions of their "style"'. My style, if I move to Williamsburg, will henceforth be known as 'post-apocalyptic pirate Dwight D. Eisenhower unicorn-hunter who wants to be a cosmonaut'. Since that is generally too long to say with any frequency, I will look for housing elsewhere.
