I had dinner last night with ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
rivka and curiousangel, who visited New York for the day with their Spanish exchange student, Maria; cattitude, roadnotes, and baldanders. We went to Trattoria Spaghetto, which they were very pleased by, and talked for a couple of hours over antipasto, various pasta dishes, and then dessert. Cattitude had spent the afternoon wandering around town with them--it was the 12-hour tourist New York, counting dinner--and they were all happily tired. It was good to see Rivka and Misha again; Maria was very quiet, I think both because she was quite tired and because her English isn't very good yet and it didn't occur to me or Roadnotes to mention that we know Spanish until Cattitude and I were on the subway with them back to where the bus left from.
Other than that, I had a very quiet day, on purpose--usually I exercise on Saturday and go thud on Sunday, but this week I needed to go thud early. I emailed a bit of copyediting (the author had told the managing editor, but not me, that she was happy with the edited galleys), and an invoice for that and the other MS I'd done for Diane thus far, and otherwise just futzed around, put away laundry, and played with LJ.
