Yesterday... early morning rush to DCA, but I ran and made my flight. In Newark... barely missed a connecting train, so I had to wait almost an hour for the next one. And my hotel... Augh. Tiny dilapidated four-story, no window, no a/c, burns on the plastic sink.

OTOH, I rushed to the theatre district (past "Spamalot"...) to have Chinese food for lunch with sinboy and rosefox. They looked settled and happy. And we walked by Rose's park, afterwards... :)

Work-wise... success! We drilled into a regolith simulant... pre-chilling the drill helped avoid getting it stuck in its own cuttings. Although we may have used too much LN2... -110C is sub-Martian, mostly.

Then a quick dinner with elissaann near her house... she was delightful and vibrant, as usual. Back to Honeybee to retrieve a lost notebook. Then to McNulty's for coffee for patgreene, walk across the Village over past NYU (heh, was stopped and asked for directions...) and finally to McSorley's. A pilgrimage, it's where I was introduced to beer at age 20 by a close friend.

Now... back home today, about to board...

Yay! for the work success. Glad that you were able to connect with multiple NYC friends during a very brief stay there. *kiss*

Anyone that has travelled with me has noted that I try to fit as much into a given day as possible, so as not to lose opportunities... life is short. =)

I will consider myself duly warned.
