another two days of work...

Monday and Tuesday, and I will return to Friends tomorrow. This is my first day off since the day before Thanksgiving. Whew! Pretty exhausting. Not much to report as far as "my life" goes. There is not much of it.
 Saturday evening I did go to the reunion party at East River bar in Williamsburg, but did not stay long. Had one or two nice conversations with old friends, but not too many people were there--at least early---and I was pretty fatigued from the three sessions of the day, plus the five day work week at Friends. So fairly early I jumped on the J train---got off at Essex Street, the first stop in Manhattan, starving, and went to their underground newly opened food court for some quick food. The underground has many quick stops and one or two large bar restaurants, but in reality it seems like a very cold place. No real sense of style, or identity. But on this Saturday night, it was packed---amazing! I guess all you have to do is open a place, in NYC and people will come. Well, we will see how it is all developed---it is very near La Flaca--my friend Bob's restaurant, which I usually visit around once a week, so I should be around there soon. After the pizza, returned home.
  Sunday was a strange "rest' day, my body was pretty tired---so I did not think I could make it out to Brooklyn or other parts of Manhattan. Instead remained on the upper west side and spent much time in my apartment. I watched some football at a nearby bar, for a while, but found that place fairly uninteresting. Things perked up when I received a phone call from a French teacher at Friends, asking me to sub for him. That is about all I can say about the day.
  Today a few sessions, then not sure---will depend on what my body tells me. Might head to Friends for the end of a basketball game there---will report soon.
