going down to tj again [ingesting]

the day's omen: nopalita locking her keys in the car. this moment foreshadowed how the rest of the day would go. today twiddle thumbs and nopalita and i are driving down to tijuana to see cafe tacuba in concert. nopalita arrived at my mom's house and we were gonna drive down, except she had locked her keys in her car. they were right there on the driver's seat. i thought if she left the car like that, someone would smash her window and drive away with the car. she had a spare key at her house so i drove her home to pick up the key, then she got her keys out of the car.

uh, looks like someone can't hang like they used to

i looked up a place where we could eat close to the border. we went to cliantro live in chula vista. it's vegan and raw. i've been wanting to eat at a raw foods restaurant. the service was very slow. twiddle thumbs hated the food. she didn't like anything she ordered. nopalita thought it was weird. i thought it was good, but not great. though the mint ice cream i had was great! except, i ordered a sundae and i didn't notice all the ingredients on the sundae that were listed on the menu. the ice tea made twiddle thumbs and nopalita very giggly. i don't know what was so funny, but nopalita was crying with laughter. twiddle thumbs turned redder than a japanese drunk on sake. it was hilarious. in the past i have made nopalita laugh so hard that she vomited.

conclusion: we'll never be eating there again.
