money can't buy happiness. it can, however, rent it.

Hello Friends!

Our second blog is dedicated to showing you what we actually do to survive in the big city.

We realized that moving to NYC is more like throwing money into an endless vat. So, to pay for our rent and food...this is what we do!

Erica continues her love of coffee by working at Starbucks:

Kathryn incorporates her love for music and coffee by singing at Luna Espresso!

Kathryn also pays the bills by babysitting and being a server at Big Daddy's Diner...known for its delicious milkshakes.

And...Erica got a job at the same restaurant as a hostess? 

Although we work hard day and night...we still manage to find time to watch many a TV show and, of course, have a dance party. 




Stay tuned for our next blog, which may include a musical selection. 

Until then, we will keep singing the Braves tomahawk chant.

empire state of mind.


So many things have happened to us since we've been here that we decided to just compose a list of the top 10 biggest happenings!

1. Moved to NYC at...no later...than 4 AM! (city that never sleeps?- we didn't)
2. We saw KRISTEN CHENOWETH and LAURA LINNEY on the street!
3. We successfully moved our 7 foot couch into our apt after two days of trying.
4. We've seen a total of 6 Broadway shows (collectively)
5. Went to a live taping of David Letterman
6. On our 2nd day in our apt...our roof fell down. yeah. (see below)
7. We were prayed for at church by a woman we saw on Broadway the night before.
8. Speaking of church, we found our perfect new home church and couldn't be happier!
9. We went to the Wild Nothing and Stars (one of our favorite bands!) concert and the lead guitarist of Stars ended up crashing on our couch.
10. Best of all- we both found our survival jobs within the first week of being here! We don't have to sell our souls to pay rent...at least not yet.

Until next time!

Love from NYC,
Erica & Kathryn
