I'm s...i appreciate the advice, rashad and janelle. I'm such a city girl...grew up in dc, and this is my 2nd time living in ny...but this is the 1st i've been so fearful of all the craziness. It's definitely age. And probably just that I'm actually in Hamilton Heights...a neighborhood I know very little about. I like BK, b/c it's familiar to me...and I can get a cab--if I fib the driver (which has worked 9 out of 10 times I've tried it.)<BR/><BR/>Rashad--nope...i'm not coming back to DC. I'm done with that city.Papier Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07960620022982227174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-187501116550077868.post-6505107396758773312008-06-26T14:11:00.000-04:002008-06-26T14:11:00.000-04:001) its an age thing and living alone thing...come ...1) its an age thing and living alone thing...come up with a plan that at least makes you feel safe. I find walking through a neighborhood like I know exactly what I'm doing (and that I belong here) tends to work. <BR/>2) these things happen in waves. And in any other city just because you don't hear about the atrocities doesn't mean they don't happen. <BR/>3)okay since I'm a Harlemite I'm always going to advocate for my 'hood. Besides..if you're out partying late at night, cabbies ain't going to Brooklyn! HA!<BR/>4) don't listen to Rashad. lolJanellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15883345504272856768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-187501116550077868.post-83659903482093158252008-06-26T12:19:00.000-04:002008-06-26T12:19:00.000-04:001)you gotta pray2)maybe try to get a group of folk...1)you gotta pray<BR/>2)maybe try to get a group of folks you talk to on the phone, while walkin home, so they can account for your whereabouts<BR/>3)come back to dc, the supreme court just ruled that we can pack heat like Nino Brownn baby!rashadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01384684218145041166noreply@blogger.com
