Do you live around here?
No.
I'm out on Long Island.
My dad works in the area.
We had dinner.
Nice.
Yeah.
- You?
- Yeah, yeah.
I live right down
the street actually.
Oh, wow.
to go with your nicotine?
Yup, I've heard the coffee,
smoke breath combo is a killer.
Yeah, no, I actually
took your advice.
You mean you quit?
If you can even call it that.
- Here you are, sir.
- Thank you.
binge eating instead.
You know what, could we get
the tray of biscotti
and a dozen or so
bear claws, please?
She doesn't like my jokes.
You know, I haven't been,
but I hear it's great though.
Yeah, the staff's a little rude,
but the food's good.
Thank you.
Did they redo this place?
You know, it's been the same
since I've been up here.
How long is that?
Almost a year.
Do you like the neighborhood?
I do, you know,
it's cleaner, quieter,
outrageously expensive.
I don't know, I do miss
living downtown though.
Why did you leave?
Well, my old roommate
got married.
Loser.
And, um, my girlfriend Gretchen,
she lived about
five blocks up, so, yeah.
So, you live in one of those
Brownstones right off the park?
- Wow, that's pretty...
- Pretentious?
I was going to say
impressive, but...
Yeah, well, I'm a big shot
investment banker.
- Really?
- No, I'm not that lame.
My husband was a banker.
Of course he was, Jesus.
No, it's okay,
I didn't get it either.
Well, I did do a semester
of business school
Oh, at least.
- Why only a semester?
- I don't know.
It was fine, but,
you know after...
I just decided to take a break
for a semester or forever,
we'll see.
So, what are you doing
in the meantime?
Just loitering in coffee shops?
Pretty much, yeah.
No, I work for a commercial
real estate firm.
But what do you do,
how do you spend your time?
Um, I'm a teacher.
- Oh yeah?
- Yeah, second grade.
Hey!
No, seriously.
In a good way.
So, what brings you
from Long Island
to a church all the way
on the upper Westside?
Um, well my husband
and I lived on 73rd.
And the group meets up here, so.
And how long have you been
going to Lazarus Lives?
I went pretty regularly
for about a year or so,
but I actually hadn't been
Was it helpful?
Yeah.
I don't know.
It's kind of like Tylenol
or muscle rub.
It doesn't really cure anything,
it just sort of...
Masks the pain.
I was going to say,
"Relieves the pain," but...
I didn't see you there
this Sunday.
Yeah.
Yeah, I don't think
but if you've lost someone...
