labor day weekend

labor day weekend bagel and i sampled korean, deep-dish pizza, and hamburger cuisines and melon and moon cake and i had my first black and tan and we napped and watched the borgias and other scripted television and slugged around and went morning bicycling at the rose bowl. i bicycled twelve miles on my new swobo, nina. we took the wrong freeway home and ended up at the foot of a very dramatic mountain wildfire, with big black plumes of smoke. it reminded me of niu mowang (牛魔王), the bull demon king from the classical chinese story journey to the west, who lives on a mountain of fire (火燄山). The flames that can only be put out using a magical fan which is in the possession of Princess Iron Fan.
