In yesterday's episode, we were left with the inconclusive ending where my friend and I decided to go back to Roppongi, on a quiet Sunday night, as opposed to sitting in our hotel room.
I dropped all expectations, played it the same way he was, and I'll be damned if it wasn't one of the funnest nights we've had here. We went on a junior bar crawl, hitting one dead nightspot after another, getting a drink here and there. I chatted up some of the guys who worked in these bars, and they were cool as hell.
That's the upside of Roppongi, is all the English speaking people, it helps a lot. So no matter what, we've always got that. With that baseline established, the rest of the trip is golden and about where it needs to be for one important reason:
I'm on vacation, NOT in Iraq. Better bear that in mind at all times and act accordingly, whether we're club crawling or TV watching or bullshitting or getting more lost and dizzy than Cameron Diaz, being bombarded with lights and sounds and all things Holy Shit.
"What do you want to do today man?"
"I don't care. Let's go get lost again."

Ha, glad I got to read both your latest posts back to back so you didn't leave me hanging, worrying about you not enjoying your leave.

You learn fast, Suspect!
probably helps to be sober...just sayin'
sounds like the madness of before is behind you...
chatting up the "real" people instead of the bar gang seems to be
working for you...
also had a thought about cities--if you two were walking down the street in New York would people acknowledge your greetings? don't know, just wondering...
