yellow fever

it was california-hot on saturday, and i went to Japantown to the cherry blossom festival.

(last time i went was two years ago with Ro. she’s part-Japanese, so i was totally in the know. )

it’s pretty much like any other street fair. lotsa food. lotsa, lotsa food. also a really bad cover band playing 70s tunes. i felt like i was on a cruise.

what i DID notice was a lotta geeky white guys with their asian girlfriends/wives/lovers.  at first, it was funny. but after about 10 minutes of seeing dozens of “dorky-white-guy-and-asian-girl” couples,  or “ghetto-thug-and-hip-hop-asian-girl” couples, it was a little creepy, and somewhat irritating.

so much Yellow Fever going on.
