Welcome back Kotter.

Yeah, it's been a while.

It's been a crazy summer where plans were made, changed, remade, and changed again. I was going to work in Ireland, I wasn't, then I was, then I decided not to.

I'm here in New York, kicking like always. I have moved from the Bronx to Manhattan (cue other 1970s sitcom music) to the Washington Heights neighborhood. I'm just north of Harlem at 150th street and I have a great view of Yankee Stadium (old and new) just across the Harlem river. I'm not too far from my original New York roots.

I got a job, but the only downside is the location: New Jersey. I call it purgatory, because you're almost in New York, but not quite, having only a spectacular view reminding you what you're missing out on. That's why I'm living in NYC, so that I can partake in the wonders isle.

So why I'm posting: November is National Blog Posting Month. My fellow blogger Family Phil brought this fact to my attention. You're suppose to blog every day for the entire month of November. I didn't realize that until today, so this post is meant to actually be posted on November 1st. I'm retroactively posting this. So yeah, look for more of me.
