The only thing worse than needing a shot of whiskey to get your day going, is needing a shot of whiskey to get your day going and not having any.
Outside, snow is falling heavily and it isn't long before a chunk of it has slipped inside my dress shoes. A flake hits me in the eye, and my coat is completely surrounded. I am under attack. Luckily I am from Miami and know how to deal with snow.
At the entrance to the train station, I run into Aliza A. She is waiting for the Yeshiva University (her employer) shuttle van to pick her up. I talk to Aliza for a bit, mostly about the material makeup of my hood, which she has asked about. As we part, she smiles and warns me to stay warm. "You too" I holler behind me as I go in. Sometimes, a short moment with a friend can make all the difference in starting your day.
