Now entering my last full month living in Japan. Sending e-mails back and forth. Sitting and listening to podcasts while eating "home alone set" (pizza and cola for one). Will make sure to pack in more on the next 41 days...

Or... maybe not...

Surely I have control over how I use my time. (Convincing myself... slow going!)

There's a typhoon outside and it sounds kind of crazy, but I think it's just my imagination and exaggeration of car/rain noises going wild. Must emphasize: no floods, no damage. Just the mind of a lucky person who doesn't know how lucky she is to be where she is, and not where she is not. ..

...fuckin' ellipses!
