I had such an amazing night last night...I hate to "cheapen" it by sharing it with the WORLD but, what the hell. My special lady, Cara, cooked a very lovely dinner last night. I left work around 7:45 to head over to her place in the city. A couple of subway stops later and I'm in Queens! Not my proudest moment, ha ha. I did get off at the right stop but it didn't feel right, I got back on and as we were leaving the station, I saw the train I needed to transfer to, what an awful feeling -- by then, of course, it was too late.

I wanted to show up with a bottle of wine and/or flowers but because I was so late, I just wanted to get there. So, when I got to her floor, I just grabbed a flower out of the hallway display (classy). Agh, I hate being late but it all worked out and we had a lovely evening (if I do say so myself).

[L to R]: Bob, Cara

It was getting late and it was a school night, so back on the subway I went. I heard the train come into the station and I ran to catch it, then, across the way, I noticed the other train was the same train line -- I was standing in the wrong train, again! Had its doors closed, I'd be going back to Queens at 1AM. Whew!

I get to the Port Authority, they have everything blocked off because it's after hours and I go through that maze only to realize that the buses stop at 1AM...it's 1:10AM...DAMN! 11 years I've been here and I always thought the cutoff was 1:30AM...live and learn.

I walk out of the bus station a beaten man and I broker a deal with a cab driver to take me back to Hoboken...it wasn't a good deal, ha ha. But after all the traveling screw ups, $40 didn't seem so bad.

Thanks Cara for a wonderful dinner:)

OK, that's all I got! Have a great weekend.

Best,

Bob
