This morning, as soon as I got on the A train to go to work, a New York Times reporter came on and asked to interview me. I was happy to comply, though I didn't feel I had anything fascinating to say--I'm happy just to be lucid at that hour. She explained that it was for a web series about commuting. As promised the story appeared later in the day. Here's my paragraph:

Looking more Williamsburg than extreme Upper West Side, Jay Klein, 26, moved here three years ago because his office was in the area. “It’s about the only place in Manhattan I can afford to live,” he said. “I grew up on the Upper West Side, so I guess psychologically it was important to me to stay in Manhattan.” His job has since moved to Midtown, but Mr. Klein is staying put.
