Busy day

Gallery hopping in Central. Going-out-of-business-sale at a bookshop (picked up a Lonely Planet for Mongolia, and a book of art critic Hou Hanru's essays). Hanging out with Lily. Getting to see the inside of the Landmark construcion site (I even got to wear a hard hat). Lunch at a Korean surfer bar. Saw the Pancakes and PixelToy at Times Square. Listening to the new Anticon release at White Noise Records. Sipping cafe au lait while cats jump over my feet at Cat Store/Meow Cafe in Causeway Bay. Checking out the lamps and computer animation of designer Akin Vong at the Habitus design gallery in Sheung Wan. Thrilling at the 2046 posters that are up already in the subway. Back to Causeway Bay for drinks with Lenny et. al. Then to a moving-out party in Tsim Sha Tsui for Ryuji, a young Japanese guy who works in HK for Bandai Toys. The party was full of young, drunk Japanese kids, and the moment we entered and people noticed me, three hammered guys joyfully called out in unison: "Aaah! Lost in Translation!"

Awkward and special.
