You called me last night on the telephone
And I was glad to hear from you 'cause I was all alone
You said, "It's snowing, it's snowing! God, I hate this weather."
Now I walk through blizzards just to get us back together

We met in the springtime at a rock-and-roll show
It was on the Bowery when it was time to go
We kissed on the subway in the middle of the night
I held your hand, you held mine, it was the best night of my life.

'Cause everyone's your friend in New York City
And everything looks beautiful when you're young and pretty
The streets are paved with diamonds and there's just so much to see
But the best thing about New York City is you and me

Statue of Liberty, Staten Island Ferry, Co-op City, Katz's and Tiffany's*
Central Park, Brooklyn Bridge, The Empire State where Dylan lived**
Coney Island and Times Square, Rockefeller Center
Wish I was there

You wrote me a letter just the other day
Said, "Springtime is coming soon so why don't you come to stay."
I packed my stuff, got on the bus, I can't believe it's true
I'm three days from New York City and I'm three days from you

'Cause everyone's my friend in New York City
And everything looks beautiful when you're young and pretty
The streets are paved with diamonds and there's just so much to see
But the best thing about New York City is you and me

'Cause everyone's my friend in New York City
And everything looks beautiful when you're young and pretty
The streets are paved with diamonds and there's just so much to see
But the best thing about New York City is you and me.

These notes are marked 'return to sender'
I'll save this letter for myself
I wish you only knew
How good it is to see you

See you.

These steps I take don't get me anywhere
I'm gettin further from myself
One thing is always true
How good it is to see you

See you.

I'm done resenting you,
You represented me so well.
And this I promise you,
How could I end up in the hands of someone else?

These notes are marked return to sender
I'll save this letter for myself
I wish you only knew
How good it is to see you

See you.

I got great news today. Well, as far as I can tell, so far at least, it's great news. Only time will tell I supose. I shall celebrate it alone. Maybe I’ll buy myself some flowers. Though, I don’t much need them, as I have Singapore orchids from when I was about to die of a cold from the in-laws. Probably not chocolate, given the cluster of stress zits (gross, I’m well aware) that I have going on on my face at the moment. Maybe a pair of new hair clips? Perhaps do some washing. Perhaps get some sleep. I think about 10 people have told me that I look crap today. That does much for the self esteem. Really, it does. SlashEndSarcasm.
Just a note, when entering HTML into Serendipity admin (eg to insert an image) you should before and after. Just in case you care. It's a technical tip, and according to Alec, these occasionally help people.
Spent a lot of time exploring Internet Banking today. I found it terribly exciting, though I can more than understand why perhaps you would not. Ever so glad I only offered to bring the laptop, and not the laptop and projector back to head office, as the bruise on my leg from the edge of the laptop shall be insane by morning, this I don’t doubt.
I picked up my Star of the Month’s yesterday from the space where my team used to live. It’s cold, and lonely without them. Two of the awards are mine, but my favourite by far, is the one awarded to my team which technically no longer exists (both in name, and in members), from the ex CEO of a company that doesn’t really exist anymore, oh, and the spelt our name wrong. But I still love it. And perhaps, once we have a new team, the new MD, will award us an award at some point in the new Brand. Or something.

Much thanks to Grim
