Dinner and Cookies

I had dinner with Cynthia; she showed up, we found a Seven Eleven where she got a cup of coffee, and then walked to Namaste Jalsa to pick up our takeout order, and back to the Patent Office. There was a little drama because the dinner didn’t include plastic utensils, and neither of us had brought silverware, but we checked the doors in three kitchenettes (on the fifth, fourth, and sixth floors), and found a couple or wrapped packets of plastic dinner utensils, so we were able to eat. I had mulligatawny soup, and then a spicy eggplant dish; she had bread and korma. Then I presented the chocolate chip cookies, one for each of us to eat then, and a baggie containing four for her to enjoy later.

She drove me home, and we hugged goodnight.
