Music Monday: New York, here we come

Posted by Kerry Freeman

I am mostly a home body. I am also terrified of flying. These two things have resulted in my only having travelled as far as I can reasonably drive in a day. (And, no, driving more than 12 hours in a day is not reasonable.)

Later this week, however, my fifteen-year, self-imposed ban on travelling by plane will end. My husband and I will go to New York for the first time. I’m excited but also extremely nervous. I mean, come on, New York is HUGE! Here at home, I’m considered a city girl, and my home town metro area has maybe 300,000 people. There are EIGHT FREAKIN’ MILLION people in New York City. The mind boggles.

In honor of our trip, this week’s song is Empire State of Mind Part II by Alicia Keys.

Wish me luck

P.S. Congratulations to Sadonna, who won the giveaway of Bella Leone’s short stories, and Amilyn, who won the Manga & Romance bloghop grand prize.
