The day I didn't wanna die

Life is like this...without the speech. A wrong turn a miss step a late alarm....changes everything. We don't even usually realize how close we were to oblivion.

Where Japan excels (anti-semitism)

Dear Mr Jew,

You in the WRONG place peed.

Mountain View? Isn't that Google Headquarters? :(

This guy wouldn't even be doing anything illegal if he were in Japan
That makes me sick.....living in a country (Japan) that is so fucking backwards

Narcissists are Awesome!!

Blogging in Japan

My ridiculous schedule has created a problem.

Even in the quietest moments..

Even in the quietest moments..

It's hard to hear anything over the noise that has become the Jblogosphere. 

 I never forget why I'm here because it's my job that keeps me here and it's a job I deeply love. This site gets more hits in 2 months than my old blog about English teaching got in 3 years. I've never been able to deal with that. It shouldn't be that way.

 But then again news programs don't open with the "feel good story" they close with them. Drama sells.

Funeral for a Friend (in Japan)

"You're a bluebird on a telegraph line
I hope you're happy now"

 I was getting checked out very blatantly by Elton John himself.  I'm in great shape now but in 2003 I was even better and younger and Elton John was giving me a nice smile and looking me up and down. I was a big fan of his but I'm not gay and it took a few seconds for me to realize who he was.

Punching,Drunks,and Greasy spoons

I am using sparring/fight gloves now because they are so light you can snap your punches. I will have permanent scabbed and bloody knuckles though but meh....it's worth it. A good side effect of doing this in such a confined space is it keeps my elbows in and I'm generating power through my hips instead of my arms. The hits are much harder. The diet is in full bloom
