Also, a weird thing happened while I was out earlier - I was walking down the street sneezing and some random guy behind me said "salud!" and again when I nearly tripped while sneezing at the same time. He struck up a little conversation about some things and we ended up walking for about a block chatting. After a minute or so he said "I'm not even sure why I'm telling you this, you just seemed like you'd be someone nice to talk to."
I can't even tell you how I probably would have run away before it even got that far in the past but today I just went along with it to see what would happen. I feel so much more open to the world (cheese alert!). That's pretty neat.
