I obviously never got around to "an update before the end of the week." Apologies to all who checked back in the hopeful belief that I was not a complete incompetent. There's nothing I can say to make that un-bad so let's just move along, shall we? Part of the reason...
Believe it or not, I actually intend to get an update up before the end of the week. This lack of a steady internet connection is starting to affect me. There's a whole world out there that's not online... and it frightens and confuses me. :O
Well, I'm moving into the second week of being back in the States and re-Patriotization(sp?) continues unabated. The only snag came a couple of days after getting back when I was brutally blindsided by some American super-sickness that my body has apparently forgotten...
The last day in Japan. I'm chilling in Narita airport during my six-hour layover (-_-) wondering exactly when it's going to get real. It still doesn't seem like I'm leaving Japan to go the States for good. Just yesterday I was swimming in the sea at Fukuma beach and...

I called in on Friday and arranged to have my satellite TV turned off as of the first of the month. That means Monday was the last day I watch Simpsons in Japan. Yes, my friends, the end is drawing near. The world is changed. I feel it in the water, I feel it in the...
