Just go in with tongue. They won’t do the kiss greeting next time you see them.
or will they
Either way, spike wins!

This presenting the cheek thing always gets me to. I never know what to do, usually go the peck.

If they’re wanting a kiss hello, give them one they’ll never forget!

Just press faces together slightly, you can kiss the air if you want but there's no need.

I actually find greeting Americans the most awkward because there's no real clarity. Do you just gesture awkwardly without touching? Do you shake hands? Do you do the side-hug thing? It's always different and always a little stilted IMO

Here you just kiss everyone and it's fine. It's the standard

there have been so many missed fist bumps, handshakes, loud claps, hugs and elbow bumps in my lifetime.

had lunch at a french bistro. first foie gras in a long time

then coffee and walk through the park

a lot more tourists than i expected

economy must be robust

Yeah I tend to do the press cheeks together thing. Glad that’s apparently acceptable. Another issue is I tend to naturally want to hug when doing this, which isn’t really part of it.

I would think the kissing thing would annoy you cuz of your height.

The hug bit is the bit I enjoy. Bitches be getting hugs. And an awkward cheek peck.

I had a handful of gals there for many years that for whatever reason, greeting included a cheek kiss. Nowadays, just my MIL.

So i got an invitation for the final of the polo championship here in Buenos Aires. They do it a the gorgeous campo de polo in the city, and its supposed to be attended by a very rich crowd.
My own president attended the semi finals and it might appear today.

I hope they have free booze.

Waiting for Papa Wease to get here so we can go to Lowe’s and get some 4x4s to finish out our back porch. We had a guy do an addition back in the spring and he did a shitty job.

After we finish that, I’ll be hanging Christmas lights on the house.

Good call. It took more than 30 minutes to find 3 of them that were actually straight and not twisted.

been about 7 weeks since my AC joint sprain

been consciously not exercising it, been sleeping on my back only, and hoping it nurses back to health

still not 100% but was well enough today to attempt some situps / core exercises again

badly needed

as being idle for almost two months has led to what i think is some mild sciatica

getting older sucks

gotta fight inactivity

managed some planks and situps and back feels a bit better already

hope when i wake up tomorrow i am not in pain

ready to work my way out of this again
