So, I did a no-upper-body-stuff workout this morning: ( details )
After exercising, I met
cattitude for a quick lunch in Chinatown. (I may have overdone the stairs walking down into the 6 train station: 51st Street is deeper than 33rd.)
Eating at Excellent Dumpling was quick enough that Cattitude had time to walk around with me a bit before going back to work. We went up Lafayette Street and wound up wandering into the REI store. I am now a member of REI: I am generally in favor of co-ops, and we were getting enough stuff that it seemed plausible financially. In some weird way, this balances having found and thrown away my long-useless Yale Co-op membership card (it's not so much that the card expired, though it may have, but that the organization no longer exists, there's a chain bookstore in that space on the campus instead).
From there, traveled home, looking at some flowers (more crocuses and daffodils, a few early forsythia and late snowdrops on LaGuardia Place, and more fritillaries) on the way and stopping at Grom for gelato. The flavor of the month is a serious dark chocolate with candied orange; it goes well the pink grapefruit sorbet.
