So, during my short trip back home, I went on a mini-adventure of sorts. I instinctively got on the 6 Train, though I wasn't sure why. And I instinctively got off at Bleecker Street. Again, I wasn't sure why.
And I just walked. I was going to head over to Broadway, ...

My brother's flight came in this morning from Narita. :D

CSHL.
So, lucky me, I got to wake up at 6:07 (it's a prime number) on Thursday and stroll on over to the LIRR station. It was a quiet walk, but the icy dew on the grass soaked through my Nikes and eventually stained my socks. Time to bring them home ...

Cookies.
So far, between the Orientation for my Department and the one meant for PhD students, I've sampled what SBU catering can do. They're not quite NYU's Aramark people, but they know how to bake a righteous cookie.
