The morning started off with the police in my apartment building around 8:30 a.m. on my flood trying to calm down a women in her room who had some mental issues. She had been screaming and constantly banging her door shut and I guess someone called the police.
She’s still on my floor.
But the morning improved after that.
I took a nostalgic walk down into the heart of Oakland where the campus of the University of Pittsburgh is. I stopped at a bar named Hemingway’s. I have not been in Hemingway’s in maybe two or three years. Donna, the owner, was behind the bar. We talked about the old times, when I was an undergraduate and then a graduate student at Pitt. That was around eight years ago. And I spent a lot of time at Hemingway’s in those days.
