too cool

Sometimes I think my life is too cool for me. I'm not sure I can keep up.

Today I went for a walk, gave directions to a beautiful Peruvian man who was lost, and ended up going to Muay Thai kickboxing with him and his 4 year old son. Then, after kickboxing, his son wanted ice cream, so we went to 7-11, and, as I was holding the little boy so he could see into the ice cream freezer, one of my Japanese co-workers walked into the 7-11. Here's me, in sweaty gym clothes with a gorgeous Peruvian man, holding a 4 year old child. Start the rumors now. Maybe I should've showed him my bruised knuckles as well, just to make sure the stories are juicy.

Aside from the terrible reputation I will have at my work now, how cool is it to go to an actual kickboxing gym in Japan? They said I can come back and practice with them whenever I want, despite the fact that they're training for actual matches, and I never actually want to hit anyone.
... and I really do have bruised knuckles.
