Maintenance work on 34th Ave. (5268–69).

79th St. (5270–87). Misbehaving dog (5270). EHSQ at G🏫. תאומא, Ch’z and I were the only ones present and we drew seasonal pictures. We’ve been doing much singing since Ch’z has essentially taken over as regular preacher, and he’s even made songbooks. JH G’market (5271–82, 5284–87). Damage to IS 145 (5283).

Post‐collision but possibly parade‐related police activity on 34th Ave. (5288).

37th Ave. (5289–95). اپنا بازار expansion (5289, 5295). Chocolate/nougat bar named after public‐domain gunmen, and chocolate‐covered peanuts, from DR. تاجور was there carrying things around (5291), including trash out the door. All ice cream was gone and its freezer was warm and empty, so I asked cashier E’vine (805) if ice cream will ever return, and he smiled and was quite friendly and informative in telling me how the freezer needs repair because it is on at all times. He also struck me as looking handsomer and even younger than usual, probably a result of changes in my brain when someone is friendly and engaging. Activity where my favorite حلال cart used to be (5292). I was walking briskly and went around a slow‐moving senior who greeted me after I passed him, and lo and behold, it turned out to be J’n R. who chatted with me despite his being eager to get home and sleep. Mixed‐meat Franks, overpriced olive oil, a mixed fruit bowl and a mixed fruit parfait from F’town. Woman in wheelchair fumbling with keys (5294). C’los(?) was there lumbering around.
