So I’m going to see the Star Trek movie tonight and I’m really excited. I don’t go to see movies that often but I didn’t want to miss this one on the big screen.

The sun is out today and it is warm enough to forgo the black scarf/shawl so I decided to eat my salad in the park-like area across the street from my office.
