With the cloud cover and on-again off-again rain, it's like a steam bath outside right now. Absolutely terrible weather.

I saw a new couple walk past me on my way home from the gym tonight. By "new" I don't mean they were shiny and fresh-out-of-the-box, but in a newly-formed couple kind of new. Of course I don't know them, but I'm guessing by the smiles they both wore as they were talking that they haven't been dating for too long.
Thin, happy smiles, tinged with equal parts nervousness and awkwardness.
I used to think those were the best smiles in the world.

Because I'm reading that stupid book I can't get myself to stop thinking about bananas. It's starting to become a real problem. It's like where there's the JR train, I see a steel banana that carries passengers instead. And where there are sarari-man walking around in ties, holding briefcases, I see a ripe, yellow cavendish sticking out of the suit, head waiting to be peeled. I'm even talking to my friends about bananas. They both gave me this "Uh, dude, are you really talking to me about bananas right now?" look.

My friend told me in Bali that he can only give it his all or nothing at all. I wasn't aware of it then, but I'm much the same way.
It's either you're a homie, or you're Jolly.
There really is no middle ground.
