Traveling

So I'm leaving today... in fact my flight leaves in a little over 2 and a half hours. And I'm still at home!! I'm getting ready to head to my sister's house where I'm leaving my car while I'm gone. When I fly back home in 2 weeks, my flight doesn't land until after 10:30 at night so I'm going to have them leave my car at the arrivals parking lot and call me on my cell to tell me where I can find it.

So it's off to 2 weeks of training for work... better be interesting!!!! Next weekend will be time in New York City with my best friend, her husband, and daughter.

See you when I get back!!

Best Cities for Singles?

I saw a link on Yahoo that sounded interesting so I clicked on it. Forbes Magazine has done one of their polls ending with a ranked listing of the top 40 cities for singles. Here are the results:

1. Atlanta
2. San Francisco
3. Dallas
4. Minneapolis
5. Washington, D.C.
6. Seattle
7. Boston
8. New York City
9. Orlando
10. Phoenix
11. Chicago
12. Denver - Aurora

13. Miami
14. Austin
15. San Antonio
16. Los Angeles
17. Houston
18. Charlotte
19. San Diego
20. St. Louis
21. Columbus
22. Philadelphia
23. Tampa - St. Petersburg
24. Las Vegas
25. Baltimore
26. Virginia Beach - Norfolk?
27. Detroit
28. Pittsburgh
29. Portland
30. Buffalo
31. Milwaukee
32. Sacramento
33. Cincinnati
34. Memphis
35. Providence
36. Kansas City
37. Indianapolis
38. Cleveland
39. Salt Lake City
40. Jacksonville

This was very interesting to me, indeed. I think this is one of the first times I have seen my area listed on a poll like this but I just have one question. If it is ranked 26th on the list of the best cities for singles, then why don't I realize that?

This was actually more of a good laugh to me than anything else. I haven't posted in a while so I figured better this than nothing!!
