Italian mall this weekend. The mall. The Primavera Mall. (spring mall) Ahhh, The epicenter of society. Teenagers, parents and children, young couples…. People EVERYWHERE. Crowed mall madness. Awesome. It was, decidedly, exactly like an American mall, without the obesity. It really is jarring I have to say, being at a mall without any fat people. It’s been a while come to think of it since I’ve seen a really fat person. I mean, there are people that are a bit round around the edges…but truly, there just ISN’T as much obesity. It’s nice. Strange. But nice.
I’m not usually a big fan of the mall, but I needed a store called “Media World” Which, is Italy’s answer to Best Buy. And it’s exactly the same really…. What’s REALLY jarring is traveling half way across the globe only to see the same shit. . Sony, Panasonic, you know the usual suspects. Shit,”I robot”, and “Spiderman 2” on the TV’s across the store. America is powerful. Fat, and powerful.
So I purchased my very first espresso maker. And it’s TERRIFIC. When I awoke this morning I made steamed milk and coffee- mixed it up- and I’ve got me a latte. Very delicious indeed. It’s a remarkably simple machine. Everyone’s machines back home seem so complicated, with vast buttons and unnecessary gadgets. My little black machine was cheap, simple, perfect. And it make s delicious coffee.
So I am feeling very at home now. After all, home is waking up and making coffee.
PS: HAPPY BIRTHDAY NIKKI WIENER!!!!
