being that today was monday, i figured my roommate would leave early morning and go to her first day of work. i even thought i heard the front door close. but when i woke up i realized she was still at home. she didn't leave until 2:00, and was surprised that i was still home, then remembered i told her i work from home. she went down to MIT for the very first time to file some paperwork. i left the house to deposit a check and get some groceries. my roommate came home around 5:00. we chatted until 6:00, then i made some shared lasagna for dinner. she made a plate of stir-fried asparagus. we ate at the dining table, which i haven't used for years.
