Rachel in a Chick-Lit

Hello close family and friends!... a.k.a. probably the only people who will read this!

As most of you know, I moved to New York City over 2 months ago. While I've enjoyed recounting the same stories over and over again, I've decided to start a blog.

This blog will include details of my "exciting new job" as a literary agent's assistant, trying to find work in a city suffering badly from the recession, my new unpaid, full-time job of Jewish online dating and other random stories that I think you should be made to read.

Before I begin, I feel I should explain what exactly a chick-lit is... Chick-lit: short for chick-literature (think chick-flick, but books). Includes books like Bridget Jones' Diary and Confessions of a Shopaholic. These books are always about very imperfect women trying to make their careers, love-lives, etc into things to be proud of. This now describes me...

I've recently graduated college, recently moved to Manhattan, and recently became single. I am supporting myself (mostly) for the first time in my life and discovering that one package of spaghetti can make a lot of meals. I am the ultimate/cliche chick-lit character!

So, draw yourself a bubble bath, pour yourself a strong cocktail and bust out your Virginia Slims, cause I've got some blogs comin' at ya!
