The last 2 days have been way busy. Took clients out for dinner last night, to Pastis. After that we spent some time in the neighborhood, had a couple drinks at the Gansevoort penthouse bar. We actually ran into Alison Hannigan - Willow from Buffy - in there, cool



Went to Il Buco for dinner tonight. Fabulous Italian food.

I usually go to the movies on Sunday nights, but since I went to bed early last night, I decided to go today instead.

I saw Proof, with Anthony Hopkins and Gwyneth Paltrow. It was OK.

It's been raining all evening, but it seems like it's stopped now. 84 F outside, I think this is one of the warmest Septembers on record in NY.

Getting ready to go to bed. The weather is still pretty nice, 71 F right now outside.

A friend from L.A., Marlena, was in town by surprise this weekend! We went out last night, it was fun.



Went to the San Gennaro Festival in Little Italy today. The festival began in 1926 and is held along Mulberry Street between Canal and Houston Streets. It's one of the oldest feasts, attracting more than 3 million people every year in September.

No major news. Going to bed soon today.

Everything went OK yesterdcay, but we need to do some training today and take care of a few tweaks.

Got back to the hotel around 2:30 am, and we are meeting again today by 8:30.
