Ruby Foos etc...

Made some Indian food from a box because no one wanted to go out for pizza or order chinese in time. Watched the news. Finally decided to put a coat on to go out. I must be adjusting to NY weather, I've been walking around in just slacks and a sweater the last couple days. It's been just above freezing. No scarf, no gloves. When it drops back into the 20's I put my warm weather gear on. The bar this evening was Ruby Foos. The quality of these places seems to be getting better. This cocktail party was put on by White & Case. The associates there were surprisingly cool. Of course the actual work is the same as everywhere else. I actually stopped avoiding attorneys abot half way through the night. Unbelievable. The decor was a lot of red candle light in a fairly japanese looking place. It was clearly a sushi-specializing establishment. The bar wasn't exceptional. Had a screw driver, scotch, champaign and a "ruby foo" which is something red in a martini glass involving vodka and plum juice among other things. Also ate a bunch of sushi, sashimi, coconut chicken, and random vegetable things wrapped in green rice paper. Not atypical for these events, but somewhat higher quality than the average. I guess I'll do some reading tonight before bed because I'm feeling really guilty about my performance in Con Law. Not that more reading would have helped that, but any motivation I can get at this point I'll take.
