JOURNAL: AUGUST 10, 2009

Posted on 7:44 AM by Unknown

Aug 10 

   Had a glass of absinth [sic]. Saw no green lady...Taste sucks but I might give it another go.
   Had a narrow scare with the metro inspectors this morn. With only one stop to go two plainsclothed men announced they were checking tickets...I clumsily flashed the day pass from yesterday mixing it up with my hostel receipt so as to distract the an from peering closer. It worked. Whew! I was so relieved and glad to get off that train without a fine; what a start to the day that would've made.
