Whee. First actual Japanese class last night. Way fun. I find I am slightly advanced for it, but at least the written part is entirely new to me. Another one tomorrow. We shall see how that goes. 
Back in the USA.
This time I didn't tone my appearance down one bit for the customs people. Last time I came back from ROC, they fucked with me endlessly. So bad, I thought I was going to get arrested or end up on the do-not-fly list. That time I was pretty square looking on purpose. Don't want no shit, don't bring no shit, know...

where'd you go?
Chuck Palahniuk is so fucking rad.
Both the stories and the 100 shot-bottles and body parts thrown to the audience make this cat more of a rock star than your average bookish-type.
So damn cool.
It made the zoo that is bumbershoot tolerable. Well, too bad he's not there again tomorrow

On Tuesday went to Purple. Nice place. Met a really cool woman who lived in Japan for a while so we compared notes and discussed film (her major).
Another good dork night on Wed. Also saw Decemberists. Too many bloody jocks there, but still a great show. Got a massage and checked out pictures of my masseuse on the road (in their...

Dork Night was insane.
The cards everyone wrote up for 1000 Blank Cards were so funny that my head hurts from laughing so much.
Merritt gets an award...I'll let him explain why.
Next week should be pretty trippy if things keep escalating like this.

Sorry I missed it. I'll keep an eye out for the next one, 'cause playing card is what I do. In between other stuff.

Lots more space in the house now. I am now 99.9% drama free.

Absolutely. I had much fun.
Sweet. Had the fried organic oyster mushrooms at Tea Pot again. They are rising up the ranks of my favorite vegan restaurants.
Yesterday was Yoga, a bit of T'ai Chi, then weights and climbing. Darcie was my partner in crime for the last part of it. Very festive.

Well, I just had 8 types of Chinese teas.
2 Hong Cha (red teas)
2 Pu'erh Cha (aged teas...one green, one black)
2 Oolong Cha (60%-70% oxidation teas)
2 Ali Shan greens that were skunky and cool.
I have enough of a charge in me I could run all the appliances in my house.

how was your day?
tawnya:
Thanks he's a super momma's boy.
I got to brutalize myself yesterday. Did the usual morning yoga/aerobic/pilates thing and then later went to the gym for a total-failure weight session (as a warm-up) and did some lead climbing to top it off. Fucking excellent time.
Today I am supposed to start the day by climbing for a couple of hours. Let's see if that actually happens

ANNOYED.
My workout routine has been fucked all week thanks to work and other stuff.
I will probably do some lifting tonight, but it is just a snack when I need a feast.

The Korean place under Buddha on Cap Hill rules. I got the tofu hot pot and a big-ass mung bean pancake thingie and oodles of kimchi. I feel pretty rad. The clock is ticking to see how long until the pain sets in, though. Heh heh heh. I better sleep alone tonight.
merritt:
Kimchee is sooo nasty. A friend opened a jar in my kitchen and it smelled for an hour. He stuck it in my fridge for an hour, and my fridge smelled for a week.
committedsavage:
You eat enough and you start to sweat it out. But that's fune since it is SOOO damn yummy.
I speak it like a 1 year old. Food, a color, 1,2,3.....head shoulders knees and toes.
You coming to geek game/going away party on sat?
