Who: Clare & Joel What: Brunch Where: Local, in Silver Lake When: Backdated to yesterday, which was Sunday 7/26 Rating: Language, if anything
Clare had two things on her plate this Sunday: The fun thing was meeting friends in the afternoon at Echo Park Lake and the less fun thing was bullying Joel into finally sending her the latest chapter of his book. Since Echo Park was near his neighborhood, she decided to kill two birds with one stone by meeting him for brunch. Sometimes it was easier to see clients in person than to let them keep blowing off emails and texts, which was exactly what she was hoping would happen with Joel. Besides, she hadn't seen him since he had returned to the States anyway, so they were overdue for a meeting.
She had told him to meet her at the restaurant at 11:30, so at 11:25 she was outside by the door. She was very rarely late for anything, which was a personal point of pride considering how terrible people in Los Angeles were about arriving on time, 'traffic' and 'parking' being frequent excuses. Since she had a few minutes, she looked down at her phone and scrolled through a few emails.
