lunch

Popped by the apartment this afternoon to have lunch. Had a nice bread that I got from the French Bakery (although it was not a French bread, if that makes any sense) with some cheese and jam. Read my New Yorker magazine for a while (yes, the same one...). One of the side benefits of living close to the office. A nice change from eating out for lunch which is good but gets a bit tiring after a while.

The weather has also improved a bit so this evening it is nice and sunny and quite pleasant. I went down to Lafayette square for a bit and listened to the concert - it's every week for about twelve weeks from April through June - but was not really digging the music and for some strange reason there were very few people there who I recognized so I called it quits and headed home. Maybe I'll head out later for a drink at the bar down the street. It's called the Voodoo Bar II and I've yet to set foot inside - it looks a bit sinister!

I moved offices recently as the result of a reorganisation and that resulted in me getting an "inside" office to my chagrin. One benefit of it seems to be that the temperature does not get below freezing due to the cold air-conditioning because there is no vent in the office. Also no window or view through someone else's window to distract me from my work. Some benefits. Hopefully I'll outlive my two plants in my new cave.
