The Arepas Bar with Bianca

I did NOT want to wake up this morning. But I prepared myself for a long day and off I went to pick up the keys to our apartment. The super let me know that the top lock needed to be changed. Boo. So tomorrow we're going to move in our stuff at 6pm. He also told me that we might want to get bars put up in our window to the fire escape, but that cost $250. I went to look at the apartment and the tub was dirty. Did some homeless person come take a bath? Idk.

Got to work and ate my oatmeal. Then I finished creating some excel files. Had a lunch meeting with my supervisor and then group meeting after that. My boss said that she's happy I am working for her and that she might have some upcoming projects she could potentially have me work on, which is awesome! Finished up some more work and then left to meet up with Bianca. I read some proposals on the way, something I wouldn't have been able to do in Cali.

I got to the restaurant ("Caracas" in Manhattan) and was happy to see a familiar face. We talked about our adventures as we waited to be seated in the cute & tiny arepas bar. She told me about her upcoming work, getting ready to leave NY, and I told her about me getting settled in NY. We were finally seated and ate delicious food! I got a chicken avacado salad arepa and she got a chrizo chicken chimi churri arepa. We also ordered tostones with some salty cheese. As Rachel Ray would say it, "Yumm-o!" It was really nice to hang out with Bianca and hope to do it again soon!!

Now I'm on the train back home.. about to read some more proposals.

G'night, New York.
