If I had photo-shop skills (chicks only dig guys with skills...) then I would have super imposed Mr. Heston running towards the Colonel. I would have wet myself, laughing at my own ingenuity...or something wink

I went...

Do you see how good you are? You not only made a day for putting stuff off, but you embraced it fully, by refusing to update. You...you're good. wink

Happy Tuesday (tuesday, get it?)

so it seems, everyone, myself included, would like to have some musical talent and form a band--except hollygolightly, who would like to dance to it.

bluesky-on vocals
loslope-lead guitar
hellosushi-bass
delihound-drums or maracas

icantplayguitar can dance with holly, and woo her with his fluent japanese. she won't know what he's saying, but she'll like the way he says it.

Band names?...

Getting ill, like the sick anticipation that big life changes bring? Is that what you mean? Just remember, there's always lots of natto around the corner smile

Anyway, do you have the schedule for your first few days in Japan yet? I assume you're arriving at Kansai Intl. If it's anything like when I first came, they give you a few days to chill before orientation and the start of work. Perhaps I could meet up with you then? I'm on vacation more or less and could easily come down. Do you know where you'll be living in Osaka?

Remember people saying "Psyyyych!" or "Rad"--- I love those words.

Are you almost ready for your trip?

Oh, also- did you ever look into teachamerica.org?

i need to step up my study of the language, but it appears that i am too lazy...

I'm glad that someone else recognizes that fact that dominating the world doesn't equate to forgiving one's student loans. Tricky!

it never ceases to amaze me:
In his memoir, "A World Transformed," written six years ago, George Bush Sr. wrote the following to explain why he didn't go after Saddam Hussein at the end of the Gulf War.

"Trying to eliminate Saddam...would have incurred incalculable human and political costs. Apprehending him was probably impossible.... We would have been forced to occupy Baghdad and, in effect,...

My embaressing not embaressing thing is two fold:

1) Having poor spelling / grammer (but still picking up other people about their`s)
2)Talking on the phone (but I think that`s a generic male thing, no?

my hubby got a new tattoo, and i am very envious.

i have taken out my piercings for my job, because they got sore taking them in and out. no funky hair colors, and tattoos are not premitted to show at my japan job.

I FEEL UNDECORATED!!!!
and mine is either amused or annoyed at my constant trying to "get around" the restrictions--maybe i'll just...

Nah, he does stick his tongue out like that, though. wink

Are you getting happy-scared-excited yet? About the move, not my husbands' weird sexual habits.

Where the hell did that come from? I have no idea.

You are so brave to do that. I would be shit-scared by now. Way to reassure you, right? I'm sure youknowwho will be fine. I'll keep an eye on him, and make sure he feeds bo and jo. robot

As a five year old, I snuck out behind my neighbor's shed, with their six year old, where we climed a pile of old boards and spied on the naked neighbors behind us. I shouted "whooo-whooo!" and slid down a plank, where a nail caught my thigh, and ripped open a five inch gash that remains to this day. Interestingly/coincidentally enough, I lived in that town for five months (my dad was being transferred to our future permanent home) and years later (25) I transferred to that exact town, where I now reside with my children of that age. Hmmmm.

I love dogs, period. Have a great day! smile

I felt the exact same way about Chris Cornell (pre pretentious Audio Slave). I wrote a song about that exact thing as well. smile
