Slow day...

Dear Nicky,

Your Granny came over this afternoon, and that always puts your mother in a good mood. Considering her anguished state yesterday, anything would have been an improvement. I ran some errands and paid some bills and got us some submarine sandwiches from this place called Vito's. They were really good. I ate a whole one myself and it got me through the whole day, but it made me very thirsty so I drank two liters of Diet Coke in a short period of time. Your mother and I went into the city together this afternoon; that was the last time she'll be in the office for a while now, barring maybe the occasional meeting or something. We talked about Hawaii on the subway ride. That never fails to boost our spirits. We're going to take you there in a year or two. You'll love it. In the meantime, may God bless and keep you.

Love,
Dad
