The Septimus Notes

|3 arguments, a museum, and a present.|

B brought me a present today just before we left to go see Le Grand Voyage at the MoMA. If you know how much I hate receiving presents (note: I love presents, just hate receiving them), then you can understand my intial concern when he let me know of his intentions on the phone. So what did he have in his hands (both hands) when he called me from the lobby to come downstairs? Orange Juice. Vitamin D + Calcium Enriched. 4-1/2 gallons. That's a good gift. A great gift. We share a similar passion for the beverage.

And then we went to the MoMA. The movie was sold out. So we toured it a bit, talked in French about Cubism and Chagal.

And then we had our first argument of the day. About why one should(n't) make haste in leaving a museum or a store when it's closed as opposed to meandering and taking one's sweet time (and the time of the employees of the establishment).

And then we had our second argument. About why one does(n't) reserve the right to assume certain privileges over service employees because one has spent this or that sum of money in this or that store.

And then we went to the Time Warner center and in Borders we had our third argument. About why one should(n't) read "Classics" instead of more contemporary literature.

And then I remembered that A once bought orange juice as a gift. My therapist will enjoy the coincidence.
