Orgasm count: 0I have to admit, my heart rate of 36 confuses me a bit. Has the bartender of this small, charming, and wooden hangout laced my opulent gin and tonic with heroin? Granted, it may also have something to do with a certain inherent imprecision to an app that measures heart rate via a soft touch on my phone's camera. I'm nonetheless off to a confusing start into big data's vast universe.

Orgasm count: 0The quasi-religious atmosphere of shameful anxiety produced by Berghain's waiting line has brought my drunk back down to a pleasant tipsiness. The line appears to be moving particularly swiftly tonight due to its bouncers ruthlessly thinning out large swathes of the waiting public deemed unfit for the club's sophisticated and precisely understated cool. I guess this is what it takes to get named Berlin's "coolest club" by Rolling Stone.

Orgasm count: :( At some point you gotta leave, I'm telling myself, unable to feign any further interest in how my friends are doing on Nike+ or how my distance score compares to theirs. I'm taking this taxi now. I'm babbling something about Turkish politics to the taxi driver, which was induced by the fierce Negronis and mai-tais Panorama Bar was serving.
