rinueFor lunch, I went to Chinatown and bought two pork buns twice the size of my fist.
big = America
pork = barbecue
Chinese = inventors of fireworks.
Then I went to McDonalds (American) and got soft-serve ice cream (so American). The wind kept blowing my skirt up, even though it was long and heavy (it's been cold here, and rainy), and skirt blowing = Marilyn Monroe = America. To top things off, I borrowed a copy of The Straight Story, an American film by an American director1 about an American2 travelling across America3.
Someone set off fireworks to the northwest of me4; I could see the tops of them if I leaned out my window. It was very exciting.
1. Lynch
2. A farmer.
3. On a lawn mower.
4. Therefore not the American Embassy; they all took the day off, with nary a clue on their website as to where the parties would be. American Embassy, you disappoint me yet again.
