bearshortyLast week was Janna’s birthday, so today a few of us got together for a nice brunch in West Village in Manhattan to celebrate it.
The day was all rainy but I actually liked it. It was the kind of rain that set the mood for a nice melancholy day but it was really soothing. And it wasn’t raining too hard when I was walking around in the morning getting the gift card and finding the place.
And on the bus on the way to the city (trains weren’t running today so it was bus for me), I actually managed to read. I get motion sickness usually on the bus or in the car if I try to read anything but this time it was all right. Maybe because I was reading a graphic novel, not an actual book – but that was fun. I actually finished the second volume of Sandman today – I think I read half of it.
Brunch itself was delicious. It was in this tiny little place with twelve tables and one waiter. I had a salad and an omelet with mushrooms and a crepe. And mimosa. There was just Janna, myself, Yeva and Vito and it was very cozy. I got a ride back halfway and scouted out some bakeries too.
And when I got home I even put together my Cold War class for tomorrow – the last lecture for the Global class.
So overall, a very good day.
