Happy Spring

Can't believe spring is here, crazy how time flies. The weather thankfully has been warming up and even though it's still raining sometimes, it's mostly pleasant enough to go for a walk sans the jacket.
We got to know a couple of neighbors a bit more and found out that one of them is a cat sitter on the side. We are located in the most pet and kid-friendly neighborhood of Brooklyn so he takes full advantage and has been cat sitting for 20 years. Apparently one can earn a lot of money doing that since people who live in New York travel a lot. That makes sense. Let's see if my next blog entry mentions any cats or dogs for that matter.
We've been meeting new people thanks to one particular friend who painfully tries to mix everyone he knows in hopes of some merry-making. Sometimes the new people jive with us sometimes they say two words in as many hours. The funny thing is too that the people we meet are so diverse and do totally different things. For example we had dinner the other day with a radiologist who is also a pilot on the side (yes, he's got too much time). Not someone we would usually run into in SD, or maybe we would? Don't think so.
We've also seen the wedding and Middle East news along with everyone else and that's about the most TV we've watched last month. We have been going out to dinner/drinks with friends on the weekends a lot and trying new places. So far, nothing to brag about. Hoping next weekend we can finally make it to the MET which we still have never been to. Guess we have different priorities. I'll let you know if we end up there.
