I took #66 bus in for Figgy doctor appointment--H. couldn't make it because he got booked near the last minute to work an event in North Brunswick, writing 60-Second Novels.
I'm in the waiting room, waiting my turn. What a nice business lounge--at 100 Park Avenue, between 40th and 41st streets, a block away from Grand Central Station. I always think of my Irish grandpa, Jim Mahon, when I approach GCS from this side of Park Ave. It's because Sis has told me a story, something about what Grandpa said as a new immigrant when he saw Grand Central. Have to ask her to remind me again.
A complimentary coffee machine brewed espresso for me to pour over ice in a white cup. A nice Dell desktop computer is mine for the using right now.
I was going to head home and work on Anthony's book in Montclair, but instead, I brought my laptop in and will walk over to the NY Public Library and write there for a while. Punchy is at her last day of Steve and Kate's Camp for the summer, and H. can get her by 6 p.m.
Tomorrow we leave for Cape Cod. And once I have finished Anthony's book--and I'm nearly there--I intend to start hunting for a full-time job [again, but this time with more gumption and determination]. I love the buzz, energy and sophistication of NYC. I love the coffee bars on every corner [originals, not just cookie-cutter Starbucks]. I love walking by lunch carts. I love seeing what people are wearing.
My turn.
