White Powder

Yesterday I had a two hour lunch.  One for meeting Ersela to exchange ARE study guides and to talk about why I don't like it here, etc.  And another because when I returned, the lobby of the NYTimes building where I work was closed, tarped up while the NYPD investigated a "suspicious package".  Apparently someone mailed people at the Times envelopes with white powder, which turned out to be nothing.  In the meantime I wandered around the Muji shop, and waited on a long line to get on a freight elevator back up.  It was odd, seeing cops with their cases of who knows what, labeled 'emergency wmd bla bla bla'.

That's what you get for working in a high profile building.
