My crush for today:
Mangos! A repeat offender.
And the cobra, with your ankles together.

My joke for today,
qPCR, it's like a marathon, but for your thumb.

So. I'm very behind on my bathrooms.
I paid my 150 passenger fee, drank a mango juice box, and left. And now it's been over a month. All of the utopia has dissolved. But the hyperpigmentation from the mosquito bites on top of mosquito bites still persist. Report on the bathrooms in Indonesia? Not bad. However we stayed in nicer places with hot water... I'm a whiny girl. I didn't have to use too many squaters, which some other travelers voted that these were more hygienic, but I'm yet to be convinced. Although I was impressed with their bucket system for washing and flushing. On an only slightly related topic, I found the Indonesians to be wickedly cleanly. Makes me want to go wash my car right now.

21st Amendment. It was a double venue night, and I was cheering all the way. Originally I chose Thirsty Bear, where the beer is good, but the food got nose wrinkles. Admittedly, their patatas bravas we just so so, and that's my tapas place litmus test. That, and because their bathroom is upstairs, made us migrate to 21st Amendment, yay! The watermelon beer tastes like jolly rancher, and their bathroom area entry way smells like peepee. Nacho said that it was because of the men's room trough system, and georgemichael agreed. I didn't have enough watermelon beer courage to confirm this for myself.

Pyramid brewery has a downward slope to get down to the bathrooms. Perhaps, not coincidental? ps. Rainbow still kicks Berkeley Bowls' arse!

La Corneta's bathroom slightly smells of urine. Beyond disappointing. Although used by the public, I judge the places' cleanliness by the bathroom. Just like I judge a place by the quality of their bread, or steamed rice. Digression! It's too bad. I really have a special place in my heart for La Corneta, because they single handedly got my through my last year of undergrad when I was living with that blue grass annoyance. And their carnitas and salsa verde rocks! I accidentally placed the squeeze bottle of salsa verde right next to my Pacifico.... and in my chomping, inadvertently mis-grabbed the salsa bottle with a hefty gulp. Delicioso.
