Good day at work, met up with an ex-colleague/friend afterwards, Brad. It was great catching up and sharing gossip. Got home not long ago. Chatted w/ Gretchen for a bit. So hungry now. Nice out, walked back part of the way from SoHo, it is so pleasant. I guess I will be out of town, in Boston, over the weekend. Heard Nate will be in town in 2 weeks, that's great, we will totally hang out, do some damage .

Good Tuesday, pleasant and nice. Discovering all the places to eat around the new office. Went to this deli on the corner of 28th, huge variety and very efficient processing people (short queues.) They actually have a good mushroom soup. It's not quite Chili's, but it's close enough. Got a huge bathtub-style container today . And also some other stuff.

Got a txt from Judit about the party this weekend, I guess I should check out train tickets.

Pleasant evening, good dinner with friends. Stopped by a club w/ Jeff on the way home, had a chance to catch up. Hope next time we don't let so much time go by before we hang out again.

My friend Toni from Spain is thinking about visiting this summer. Funny how after so many years, most software still has issues with character sets. Check out how Outlook 2007 struggles below with the opening question mark and the n with a tilde. It looked like this on the incoming message, but if I forward it or reply, suprisingly all the chars render properly. Weird and inconsistent behavior.
