Empire State of Mind::New York City::

New city, new friend. Marie-Joelle Parent is a French Quebec reporter who moved to New York less than a year ago. She's the first NYC correspondent for Sun Media, Canada's largest newspaper publishers. She's been very welcoming and invited me out last night to a friends red themed burlesque birthday party at Kiss and Fly in the Meat Packing District. We danced the night away then cabbed it over to 1 Oak. Look out for her, she's going to be big.
