Flag Day.
37th Ave. Sidewalks absolutely clogged with Asians, a little early for عيد الفطر, or so I thought. I saw a man taking a smartphone video of the crowd. Braunschweiger, hot dogs, peppered Brussels sprouts and cling wrap from F’town. Saw a handsome man in सागर/সাগর, but one without a beard or mustache, not the usual one. An ambulance was loudly trying to pass, but the vehicular traffic was so thick that motorists had great difficulty moving out of its way, and police officers were intervening trying to direct traffic. I saw a cute slender lad in the doorway of অমৃতা, where he apparently works and was apparently about to leave, and then in the subsequent commotion, later encountered outside, and my hand wound up brushing his תּחת.
