Over an hour later. Impulsivity, I got dressed in a flash and decided to go to my alma mater university. I could have driven, but had an urge to take the train. I got to the train station to literally find zero parking spot in the no permit needed area. I drove around it maybe four times and figured maybe the trip was not to be. Everyone parked there is in the city (NYC). Instead, I went to my downtown area, a touristy area with a major league university of its own. An even more prestigious university. Now I'm in a local pub restaurant having a salad...Um, and a beer. I don't feel guilty. It's the sane expense as the parking at the train station and roundtrip train ticket to my alma mater. I would have eaten lunch there, anyway.

Yummy salad with chicken, walnuts, gorgonzola cheese, spiced pear. And...beer. Only one, I promise.
