I've been told it takes five years here before you can officially call yourself a New Yorker. I'm coming up on four years this summer, but according to Time Out's "Do you belong in New York?" quiz, I'm just passing through anyway (my total score was 57). Hey, I can't say there's not some truth to this diagnosis, but surely it counts for something that my first child will be able to say he was born here.
Say what??!!!??? I hope you're saying what I think you're saying! If so, Mazeltov! You know, I don't feel like an "Angeleno," but my son was born in Panorama City, CA (if only it were actually panoramic). At any rate, there will now be a real New Yorker in your family, huh?
