VISITING AKO



Stopped by Ako to say goodbye to Nick and Kanako as they plan to head back to Perth in a week or so. Thinking about who arrived at the same time with me at the same time in Japan, one person was Nick, great guy, and it was always funny that we were roommates in Yashiro and Kobe. Then for the others who all left, Nancy, Zainabu, Susanne, Yuri, big Nick, Aaron and Kristine (my drunk karaoke partners) and others, its funny for me to think that me and Daniel are the only old foggies left (and Andrea too!), I would never have imagined that. Funny how life takes you. Well still in Japan for a little bit longer, so it was good to catch up with some good ole friends and some new ones at Minato's. Then later couldnt pass up the opportunity to eat some of Minato's fine cooking! I still think he cooks up the best okonomiyaki, even had to order my "mondaiyaki", my special problem order. It was also nice to get some of those old skool Asahi posters that I have been wanting for the longest time from Minato, Minato you are my hero!

HOLY SMOKES!

Back and connected to the rest of the world! Yes, I am still alive and got a new apartment too. Got my internet today, courtesy of the slow ass NTT and YahooBB service. Will have to mark this day in infamy. Signed up almost a month ago, the NTT guys came in looked at the phone jack for 2 minutes, said it was blah blah type, then in the afternoon the YahooBB modem arrived, jeeeez! Took long enough! Anyways enough rant, its finally here and I am able to check my mail, chat with my friends, call home, and play wow. Now I will be distracted by the evil internet. Anyways its great to be back online!
