" america is sniffly "

---

so cold in the bay area. coming out of a temperate zone and into a refridgerator. or something subtle and extreme at the same time.

and culture shock! reverse culture shock. boo america for being so overwhelming at times.

i went out this morning to get some baguettes and baked goods and my spot wasn't open. in fact it was so not open, it didn't open until 8am. what the deal is that?

if you were a good bakery that did on-site baking for the masses of people who wanted well-baked baked goods, wouldn't you get up at 2-4am and open up at 6? i think so. and in that vein, i was disappointed to the point where i had to go somewhere else.

so over a pretty decent apple danish of some sort, i'm sniffling my way back into this time zone. gotta get a phone today, which is sad because of the convenience of it. sigh.

we'll see how this pseudo-head cold develops. here's to new adventures abound.
