well i've been back in vancouver for over two months now, and really - i haven't accomplished anything. my efficacy as a deadbeat is unparalleled. bow down before me. i almost got a job up in the north west territories doing some consulting, but apparently they only wanted some one from that up north area. i also really need to get a new bike, my current bike is a death trap - i felt bad cuz i made my ladyfriend ride it to her place of employment today. you have use a sledge hammer to pound the crank that falls off every 12 minutes.
next week i gots to take a tesl course, so that i can teach english with increased efficiency. also that i can get a better job, or at least freelance better while i'm in japan. little known fact about barcos - i speak japanese. yet i never really tell people that much, because there is this god awful stereotype of nerdy white guys in love with japan. the worst part is that it's quite true. 90% of the gwai lo i meet that can speak japanese are soggy point-dexters.
despite all this i'm still doin' super and really couldn't complain - talks to ya soon kids.

It was just brought to my attention that I never apologized for embarassing you that night. Though seething with rage, the last thing I wanted to do was prevent you from apologizing, presuming you wanted to, and so, had my seeming unrepentance inhibited you from saying sorry, then allow me to apologize, both for embarassing you and for not apologizing for it sooner. What I did was thoughtless, rude, inconsiderate and just generally mean. It obviously provoked your response but, that said, your punishment in no way fit the crime. (why I don't believe it was rational) At the time I felt infinitely more so entitled to my outrage than you to yours. Thanks to a bit of friendly coercion, I've thought about the aftermath with a more level head and can somewhat appreciate your perspective. However, I can't, if only for principle's sake, forget about it as I feel as if you've yet to apologize and still insist it was deliberate. However poor my joke's taste was, and believe me I regret it, I could never forgive someone for doing what you claim to have done intentionally. Is that so hard to understand? Anyways, this is MY ammends. ...?
