WordPress changed their front page, FaceHole changed a lotta stuff, the rains at night have kept me in and the attempt to write a straight article for a mineral/lapidary magazine has semi-warped my thinking process.
about the only thing i know is that Allen is working at Travel Menu, Peter Hodge left for the coast and the Beaver a few days ago to do maintenance at the place and Neil C hasn’t screwed up at Ocelot yet..’met KG at Bistro Cinq a night or so ago for long neglected ‘catch up’ talks…she’s off to Dusseldorf soon for a talk on communications in the Latin world….my question…what the hell did latinas do before they had mobile phones? if they’re not eating ice cream, they’re yakking on the phone..
the vendors, i.e., the maya ladies in the park are cranked up for tomorrow’s invasion of the cruceros…the cruise ship passengers hauled into town…an event more important than the inauguration of the Corn Princess or whatever..we’re talkin’ $$ here, in short supply lately…ask me..my pockets are empty…you wanna be a writer? fine…let’s see..this month i’ve made about $7.65…more or less…whoopee! laissez le bon temps roulez!
umbrella #5 is holding together…good thing(see above)..seen around town, a LOTTA half price sales..’specially in the jade stores…Bodegona! listen up!…half price sales on booze, goddammit….cigarette prices up 50%…por que? waitin’ on 1/2 price offers for ladies of the night, but haven’t heard of any…(see above)..i warned you, at the beginning..this is lame …kinda like the Antigua Shooting Range…bang bang…if this month gets any slower for a lot of bars/restaurants, there’s gonna be some belt-tightening and/or hari-kari next month…aside from a few stalwarts, such as Ricardo’s Tabacos y Vinos and Hectors, O’lot and dos Reilly’s…you tell me..damn glad i’m not holding any of their paper/notes..
