Free Day!

Today I had the day off from work which was awesome! I slept in until 11, I woke up because someone was knocking on the door. Turns out it was one of the landlords and two people who were thinking about buying the building. Apparently they'd told Jules about it and she said someone'd be home, but she completely forgot about it and forgot to tell me. They didn't stay too long, which was good. They looked around and asked some questions, and then left fairly quickly.

After that Jules and I got ready and went into the city to run some errands. We went to Chelsea Market to look for a specific juice that Jules wanted. I hadn't been there since freshman year and it was Jules' first time there. I think we found the brand of juice that she was looking for, but they didn't have the flavor she wanted. After that we headed to Whole Foods to pick up ingredients to make breakfast for dinner - we made french toast, eggs, and bacon. So yummy! I suggested to Jules to cook the eggs in the bacon grease (which she'd never done before) and now she's saying she's always going to do that. Score one for me!

Other than that, today was a fairly relaxing day. Did a lot of reading which was nice, I don't get much time to read these days. I did pick up a bunch of books from The Strand for 50 cents or a buck each, which was awesome, and I've been reading those on the subway. I finished Ender's Game and Sarah's Key, and now I'm working on 1984. I'm going to raid Jules' book selection next once I'm done with this one. Seems like the only time I can really read is on the subway and on my lunch break. I'll sit at the table in the kitchen at work and read while I eat, and a couple people have commented on that. Nothing negative, just people find it kind of funny/interesting that I like to read on my lunch. They usually comment on how it's rare these days for people to read physical books, as opposed to stuff on Kindles and e-readers, and also that it's rare for people in my generation to read versus being on their phones. It's just a nice break, I suppose.
