Previous Session

RMJ, SenioreC and I met up at the bridge and had a nice, long, tropical heat warm up. Then we went out towards mainstation and on to Ximen. We skated the bullring, and the big plaza. It never cooled off. My favorite thing about the plaza, aside from the skating, is that the fami there is about 3m wide and 10 m long, so when you get refreshments, you have to scrape your sweat onto a line of Taiwanese hipsters waiting to check out with their milk teas and guave juice boxes that contain 2% juice. At that point, it's just sugar water and laboratory flavoring. Also, they have double boilers of tea eggs. I got a pair of them, wiped my sweat on the back of a ximen person, and had some TB's. SenioreC dipped out and RMJ and I wandered across the city back to our hood. We stopped at the Shangri La OK Mart in Datong for more beer. It is so quiet in Datong.
