Sherry arrives

Today I went into the office briefly and then headed to the airport to pick up Sherry, a colleague and friend who's been in Europe on business for the week and is stopping off in Paris for a few days. In Seinfeld speak, it was the perfect airport pick-up, except that Sherry hasn't had her back the whole time she's been in Europe, so there was much time spent haggling with the baggage people over it. (They lost it on her way to Hungary...bummer.) Oh, well, at least it's a good excuse to shop in Europe!

At lunch Sophie told us that today is the "day of nice driving" or something -- basically it's one day when everybody's supposed to drive friendly. One day. I love the fact that it's actually a dedicated day, like it's official or something. However, it still didn't stop the guys from honking at us in the pedestrian crossing at the mall. How hilarious.

Sherry and I went by the apartment quickly after work, but I still wanted to go to French class. If I head to Israel, I'll miss two more classes, and I've already paid for all of them. I'm glad Sherry was cool with it. After class, Sherry and I met at the Indian restaurant where the waiter's always been really nice and likes to practice his English. Then a brief walk home, and we called it a night. Long day for both of us!
