Zzzzzz…
Posted in Travel on July 7th, 2005 by ДмитрийStill very tired. Not sleeping incredibly well in the hotel.
A run-down of the past couple weeks: we continued to play house and get comfortable, finally sorting out the book collection. Celebrated my birthday with Salvadoran breakfast and German dinner. I decided I need to start exercising a little if I’m to continue with this non-stop culinary tour, but first I have to procure some biker briefs to hold my thighs apart since my own skin isn’t up for the job at the moment.
David drove me up to Raleigh at the butt-crack of dawn on Independence day for my cheap one-way flight to California. I flew for six hours then drove for four more to spend the evening in Cambria with Ma, Pa and crazy Aunt Kathy. Jet lag was cured by pure exhaustion, since I can’t seem to remember experiencing any at all.
Back to the Bay Area Tuesday to dump the rental car and take a ride on BART into the City the day before a potential transit strike (it didn’t happen after all). Quickly checked into the hotel and hurled myself back downtown to work for four hours. I somehow found the energy to take the street car for traditional Tuesday night pizza.
Yesterday was a very toilsome day at the old office, as was today. I rewarded myself with a medium-rare slab of cow flesh from Tad’s last night and some salted chicken, fish and bean cake clay pot in Chinatown tonight. Breakfast was at It’s Tops. Two or three more culinary outings before I head back to Fresno Saturday to finally pick up the car which I’ll be driving back to Charlotte…
Hopefully I’ll stop being so tired before the real road trip starts…
