Who Would You Be?

Why is it that I have the entire series of Sex and the City and Friends on DVD, yet I catch myself watching them on tv all the time?  I don't think either series could get old!

As I was sitting here watching Sex and the City today I was wishing I could be like Carrie Bradshaw.  Sitting at my desk, writing away on my laptop and coming up with insightful anecdotes.  I know she is a fictional character and I know I basically do that here and there with my blog, but I'm not getting paid for it!

If I could be any character on tv, I think I would want to be Carrie.  Her great fashion, great shoes, great job and an apartment in Manhattan...what is better?  Although watching these shows I know realistically their lifestyles are not possible based on their incomes, but it makes it all look so glamorous!  I can guarantee, getting there is not so glamorous.  The job that I interviewed for in Manhattan, the salary was only around $30,000.  That is not enough to cover my rent in Jersey, my car payment, as well as a monthly train ticket and all other miscellaneous expenses.  Forget about living in Manhattan and forget about wearing Manolo Blahnik shoes!

For now, I'll be the Carrie Bradshaw of Morris County, New Jersey ;-)
