Yo. I have the memory of ... I don't know what.... an animal with a very short term memory.
Anyhow, I remembered it was Halloween recently. Ended up at the bar district with my bro's friend who's lucky/unlucky enough to be in the pay of some huge corporation that owns the world. So he's visiting. I take him to Victoria peak, and we all ooh and aah, and I marvel at how amazingly beautiful and at how close at hand the beauty of this city is. And also marvel at how big cities like this endlessly tantalize, and so rarely give back. Often the only time you get a moment to experience the city (New York or Hong Kong) is when looking at the massive thing from a distance and the rest of the time you're nose down in your own shit.
Anyhow, hit the bar district and the police were routing everyone this way and that like NYC at New Years. So I steered us away from the main circus and ended up at a bar higher up. My bro's friend has this thing where he needs to know the name of every waittress who serves him. Its supposed to be a human gesture, but often it comes off as either aggressive or slightly horny. Actually, he's just pure naivite. Lovely dude. We had some random drinks, then ended up with some absinthe in us.
Yum.
Hugs all. Work continues to suck over here.
