hard handshakes again

today was a solid return to the ritual - a great breakfast with the chef while posting, and reading leary on drugs, then a quick pass by the legalize marijuana rally to see what was up - not a particularly inspiring display :/

those two events did come together to produce something interesting, however. i think i'm on to something, a method to sort out this drug mess we've been in for the past fifty years. i'll post about it later when i've articulated it well enough.

on my way back home i saw someone hooting like crazy next to a woman with a pram. fortunately for me, he parked his car close by and walked more or less in the same direction, so i made a slight detour to have a chat with him. he was a highly offensive old man, but after i snared him into talking to me i at least got him to agree with me - although i don't know how much good that'll do in reality.

i was shocked at one of his statements, so much so that the correct response eluded me for a while afterwards (don't you hate it when that happens?).
"i don't talk to strangers*."
"yet you don't seem to have any qualms about attacking them with your horn?"

* there's no difference between the words "strangers" and "foreigners" in hebrew, and considering the questions that came after i'm almost certain he meant the latter, which is even more offensive. here i'll give him the benefit of the doubt.

i napped for an hour, prepped my apartment for cleaning and took off for the climbing wall. it feels like it's been forever... i did alright, though. i feel i should've done better, but it's definitely a vast improvement over the last two times we were there :)

i wish i'd put on sunscreen before climbing. i covered myself before the rollerblading group left, so i'm okay aside from the initial braising :P

the route was short (shy of 20km), but smooth and fun. afterwards i broke off for dinner and beers with karnaf, and now that i'm home and showered i'm having trouble getting out for lipgirl's birthday party - but i must attend. coffee should help a little...
