Breakfast at home: something flakes. Lunch with Joel and Ena at Pancho's. While we were eating lunch, Joel reached in the pocket of his pea coat which he hadn't worn in years and pulled out a wad of papers. He turned up a ticket to some show (probably Broadway), receipts from places in New York City, and two crisp $100 bills! He says he must have had it all this time in his pocket and forgotten about it. How fortuitous! On our way back to work, we saw a bunch of cops and cop cars on 9th Avenue asking people questions. Joel wanted to stay and rubberneck, but Ena and I dragged him back to the office. Dinner at home by myself: leftovers. Patrick went to a reading by Justin Chin, Sara Seinberg, and two others. He says Justin's work made him cry, but he didn't get to talk to him. He chatted with Daphne, got a slice of pizza, then came home. Made a purchase from officedepot.com. I've made purchases from that site in the past and had no trouble, but this time it was awful. Probably the worst e-commerce transaction I've had in several years. I will definitely not be returning to officedepot.com soon.
