| Had to catch the 8:00 AM Greyhound to Pittsburgh, so woke up at 7:00.
At 7:45, I thought I'd reached the bus stop, only to find it had moved 1.5 miles away. There was absolutely no sign of this when I came during New Year's! No choice but to walk. Took 30 minutes. Naturally, I missed the 8:00 bus. The next one was at 10:30.
I'd told Section Chief T I'd arrive at 2 PM, so I had to let him know I'd be late... I tried calling twice in State College, twice in Lewistown, and once somewhere else. No connection.
Arrived in Pittsburgh at 4 PM. Called him up immediately, finally got through.
Since I was late anyway, I got a haircut and met Mr. T at 5 PM.
He was wearing a long underwear. Suntory whiskey on the desk. I accepted
a cigarette Highlight. About 20 Sunkist oranges were placed there. He said
he bought them at the supermarket. We ate them together.
Relaxed, had a glass of Suntory with anchovies as a snack. Then went out. Couldn't find a Japanese restaurant, so went to a Chinese place. On the way, Mr. T bought bourbon. Ate Chinese food to our hearts' content with beer.
Stayed at T's place. Webster Motor Hotel
