CONSIDERING DIURESIS

Naturally I was high as a kite when I returned from the pub crawl. No booze, but some caffeine before I left, then more caffeine in three different places. And I had avoided coffee, because the diutetic effect of coffee only takes one to one and half hours to manifest itself, whereas tea can take up to four or five hours. Drinking establishments usually have peeing facilities for men which are reprehensible. There's a reason it's called "the bog".
Shan't provide any details. If you're male you know.
And possibly you contributed to that.


Imagine what an endless parade of frat boys and marketing department types can do, if they actually have the decency to do it inside, instead of out there in front of children and horses.


Got home less than four hours after I had that first preparatory dose of caffeine.

A thoughtful man (not a frat boy or marketing type) times himself.

I haven't been to the head in one bar in six years.


While smoking my pipe I got to see two almost naked people, several rowdy white folks, a few skateboarders, and a friendly local with whom I often exchange 'ni hao' because I know he's a Mandarin speaker. Other than that I don't know anything about him. He could be from anywhere north of Canton, China is vast and there are many non-Cantonese speakers. I've heard him speaking Mandarin. Of course that doesn't mean much, he could be Cantonese. I've also heard Cantonese people speaking Mandarin. Usually when dealing with northern mono-linguals. Many times. So he might be fully metropolitan.

It is quite possible that many Cantonese men don't venture into bars at night because they know that's where very moist frat-boys and marketing types go.


The bookseller and myself do a pub-crawl every week. Neither of us over-indulge (except for caffeinated beverages, of course) and we have never been like frat boys or marketing types.
I thoroughly enjoy smoking my pipe while waiting for our pub crawl to commence, as well as watching the local wildlife. Who largely ignore me, except for little children walking home with their parents, who may never have seen a briar or a quiet Caucasian.

Neither of the two almost naked people paid me any attention, which is good.
I'm not social to naked people except under certain conditions.
I am kind of stand-offish that way.


For much of my life I have not been naked.
