Since when did 20:00 become “late” for a meal??
The last time I experienced this was when I was 10 years old OR…whenever I’m home in San Francisco.
I mean, there’s clues abounds. The dearth of good late night (or horrible) late night places to eat. When even dives like the Grubstake have queues on the deck, down the stairs and onto the Pine street sidewalk, replete with bums and gusty westerly winds. Its 4-star rating on Yelp BTW is for being open late more than anything else.
I guess it’s this. Either its “ignorance is bliss” or I’m not dead old enough to be here in ess eff. For the former, since I’ve been to a lot of Asia, LA and New York, I’ve gotten used to living life and being sociable. If I never left San Francisco, I may have thought that running home before the sun went down and not staying out past 20:00 was normal too. For the latter, it seems like people can be full of life when they’re elsewhere. Once they’re in SF however, they mutate into TV watching homebodies with no souls. Bah!
This blows! Time to get back to Asia! Anyone hiring out there?

Let me know if you find one of those jobs. And I forget. What methods enable you to travel the world again? Job? Vast personal wealth? Running from the law? I’m telling you, after hanging out for several months in Oklahoma, I’m really missing Asia! I hope that changes after I move to Florida…but does it really? No. Nevernever.
How do I travel? Well, I think its more #1 and #3, and MUCH less of #2. Cheap international tickets and FF miles.
Nothing in the US will ever compare to Japan, even to the small town in Kyushu you were in. Any chance you can go back after your degree is done?
not sure about going back to my little town, but hopefully I’ll go back for some research opportunities. I can’t go back teaching English. I need to “upgrade” my cool.
