Went to Ass’d, Roosevelt Ave., around 03:30 As I was about to walk in, a fairly handsome swarthy man was walking out and was stopped by workers for having forgotten something. I was greeted in Arabic again and so responded in Hebrew again. The three‐pound package of Frankfurters I bought was apparently mislabeled and so I returned shortly after leaving to get a dollar and a half refund. Loud, probably Latin American man on Roosevelt was talking to me as we passed one another in opposite directions, and I couldn’t figure out if he was belligerent or friendly, in part because I couldn’t understand anything he was saying. An East Asian–looking, possibly Tibetan, man standing at B’way and 72nd finished eating from a styrene container, placed it on the trunk of his car and then entered the car and drove away. Obviously, the container and its plastic bag flew off the car and landed in the parking spot. As if in response to it, an apparently Latin American man who was steps away from the spot abruptly began to shout quite loudly and aggressively, using some variation of fuck about every three words. Alcohol. 🙄
I’m beginning to wonder if my socializing revolves around supermarkets. I went to F’town and didn’t see the two workers I’d hoped to see, but friendly Jorge was there as well as an attractive Latin customer in tight trousers (6055–62), so I guess it all evened out.
Commentary
– I like that Jim Henson’s and Frank Oz’s voices are so prominent in the first video but barely a peep is heard from a famous singer the likes of Lena Horne. (00:49)
– So where and when will we meet tomorrow? (23:25)
– C’est la vie. ☹ ¶Unless you want to make your ex jealous by showing up with me on your arm. 😃 (23:36)
