R and I made a new friend today and have a date for midnight - oh adorable hipster boys, unite and take over. [[he asked in broken English if Ridge and I were 'brothers' [he meant 'siblings'] and I said, "not exactly" but thought that was the most accurate description of our relationship anyone could possibly muster and insight into my gender-swapping-in-personality]].
On the way back, we are walking, and there is a very drunk mexican man, probably in his 30s. Taps R on the shoulder. "Hello!" Hello, we reply. We really can't cross the street. It's like frogger death over here, even though I'm learning the rhythm of the cars. And he stumbled out into the street saying, "Maximillion!" and stopped the cars putting his hand out. Looked over at us with the most friendly smile I have EVER witnessed, and waves for us to go. He stopped an escalade and a whole row of cars. For us. It was beautiful [and we felt white guilt like nothing before].
By we I mean I, but probably R as well. You'll have to ask him to be sure.
Off to digest and soak my infected wound in antiseptic!
