Accomplishments of the day:  finished my homework.  woo hoo.  Went to  
Borther's BBQ - honest-to-god real NC barbecue sandwiches.  It was so  
good.  Stuffed my face and burnt my tongue, they sure put alot of pepper  
in there. 
 
Anything else?  Not really.  It's a very drizzly day.  I'm waiting for  
some real rain (well, I'm not really, but I'm sure it will come).  Meg  
Ryan is being filmed in Washington Square Park, and yesterday the film  
company rented out part of my church as a holding area for extras.  You  
see, we were supposed to tour that area for an orientation for the soup  
kitchen the Catholic Center runs on Mondays, but we weren't allowed in.   
That's one of the things they get for paying a thousand dollars. 
 
Anyway, the soup kitchen sounds like a good thing -- they try to run it  
like a restaurant.  People are seated a table at a time, and servers  
bring the food to the table.  When they leave, each person is given a bag  
of cookies.  I'll be able to do the whole thing on Monday, because my  
Complex teacher is Jewish and is out for Yom Kippur.  Usually I'll only  
be able to do prep or cleanup due to that class.
