[livejournal.com profile] roadnotes and I got together last night for dinner and conversation. Much catching up (it really had been too long since we'd seen each other), and the evening ended with her saying she'd email me in a day or two. She didn't want to be out late, and I'm still tired enough from last weekend that I might have been willing, but am glad I didn't.

Good fish for dinner tonight: [livejournal.com profile] cattitude came home with some nice Dutch-style herring from Russ and Daughters, and we had herring sandwiches, on good Jewish rye bread. This was all prompted by his disappointment with a sandwich he had earlier in the week. Furthermore, there are two more herrings, and half a smoked whitefish, waiting for future meals.

For a little while this afternoon, I thought Cattitude and I might be having an unexpected [livejournal.com profile] adrian_turtle overnight: her airline had gotten her as far as Philly and then started cancelling flights to Detroit. But when I did the research on times and train fares, it didn't seem like a great idea, once I realized that she was thinking in terms of staying over here, and then going back to PHL to try to get a flight tomorrow morning (we're closer to Philly than to Boston, but it would still have been 2+ hours each way, with luggage), not in terms of giving up on her trip, and breaking a return to Boston here in New York City. This all involved several phone calls, in part because I had easy internet access and could look up things like the Orbitz customer service phone number, and whether the flight she'd been told to stand by for was cancelled (yes). The last I heard, she was in Charlotte, and optimistic about reaching her destination tonight.

I went to the gym after work, despite being tired, and had a good workout, but somehow my knee started hurting about a minute after I finished my end-of-workout stretches. gym numbers )
