...In a different city...

Last night Doris, Nadia (Patrick's Daughter), and I went to see the "Sex in the CIty" movie. Alright get your cracks in now I'll wait...

The movie actually wasn't bad, Doris was more critical but she is a die hard fan of the show. What was interesting for me was seeing this movie that is so centered around the city of New York, in a city that almost couldn't be geographically further from it. The movie really makes New York look gorgeous and does it in a way that is true to form. The movie made me a little homesick.  It made me feel really lucky to grow up near such an incredible city. When I watched the movie and saw the sites of home, I was reminded of my own experiences and memories from New York.  I have stood on the Brooklyn Bridge on a sunny day and marveled at the Manhattan skyline. And like the cinematographer did in the movie; I also avoided looking at the Verizon building.

It's kinda hard to miss though isn't it?
