37th Ave. Mixed fruit bowl and cheese ends from FD. Cashier نسرین\نصرين was getting a little too chatty, telling me where she lives and saying she had seen me on the street. Fruit/nut and magic trail mixes from DR (00:40). Sh’leen was present, walking.

Moon over 72nd St. (5158–59).

37th Ave. Berry chocolate and magic trail mixes from DR. While I was on line for the a.t.m. (22:45), that frequent slow customer again asked me if my hat is Islamic, apparently not remembering the conversations we had had in the past, and also asked if the reusable cloth shopping bag I was carrying were a prayer rug. There was also a little confusion between the words ٹوپی‬ and toupée, both headwear. Kl’d was a cashier but not mine (♀). Crushed red pepper from اپنا بازار (‎22:54). Not‐unattractive youngish man in the pepper aisle greeted me in Arabic and, as usual, I responded in Hebrew.
