Pick-a-City

Vacation…over.  So the first thing everyone asked me when I was home was, “So, how do you like it up there?”  I mean, it was practically a given.  My answer?  “I like it, it’s different.”  This, of course, is a crappy answer, which just leads to more questions.  And really, all people want to know is “Which city do you like better?”  Be honest, you’re dying to know.  So without actually answering the question, I present to you 10 reasons to LOVE each city.  I thought about doing a hate list, but I’m in a good mood…

OKC  
#1 $5.50 movies, $7.00 24-packs.
#2 The sun.  You can see it…
#3 The stars.  You can see them…
#4 Non-public transportation.
#5 Grocery stores with HUMONGEOUS aisles.
#6 Al, Jim, and the Animals.
#7 Sonics, Braum’s, and ice cream on every corner.
#8 Emily Elliott.  If you don’t know her, you’re missing out.
#9 Air conditioning.
#10 Ability to wear sweats out in public and still fit in.


NYC  
#1 $1.00 Nuts-4-Nuts, $5.00 gallon of fresh honey.
#2 Central Park.
#3 Broadway shows.
#4 Public transportation.
#5 Farmer’s Markets with hot apple cider.
#6 Radio City Christmas Spectacular.
#7 Zabars, Carnegie, and deli’s on every corner.
#8 Scarlett Johansson on Broadway.
#9 Snow.  The enjoyable kind.
#10 You can pretty much wear anything you want.
