My Biggest Regret

OK it's not my biggest regret, but one of the biggest regrets I have in my life thus far is that I didn't live in New York City for any period of time. Living on Long Island my entire life I've been there hundreds of times but I generally keep to Madison Square Garden, my 5 or so favorite city bars and concert venues. I don't think I've ever actually gone in just with the agenda to explore and just get to know it. So I'm considering it a New Year's Resolution to make a few extra trips to the city this year with absolutely no agenda other than walking around and checking stuff out.
