You know I'll manage to visit at some point, and who knows where I'll end up in the next year anyway. We're adventurers!

I loved NYC while I was there, I am sure that the homesickness will subside and you'll be a man about town just like in Juneau in no time at all.

Coney Island is fabulous! See the sideshow!

And, don't forget I might be visiting in December. Sadly we all have jobs that are NOT in NYC, so we can't be there all the time. :(

As Sheila said, focus on the things you will miss when you leave NYC, like wonderful food and people watching.

Differences:
Juneau - People get uncomfortable if you watch them.

I'll get pictures up on facebook of my apartment nicely outfitted!

I don't have them yet though.

And I had a nice conversation with this older lady (about 70+) on the way to IKEA the other day. She convinced me that I need to go to Coney Island for the day. So I'm going to try and recruit a person to go with me.

The other thing I do is always look at people to see if I know them.

I've been getting a LOT better at that.

It is a hard habit to break.

Hang in there. You'll get used to it, but try not to get too used to it. Not smiling at strangers might be normal in NYC, but it's not normal in most of the world. No one wants the smiling-at-strangers Myron to disappear without a trace in NYC.
