Operation Try To Find A Girl begins in a Coffee People by my house. They didn't have any apple fritters, though. The people behind the counter talk of early relationships, and some patrons to my right discuss evolutionary theory. They're making assumptions involving a long list of logic mistakes, and it's driving me nuts. The Reedie in me is about to jump across the cafe...

So enough with the moping, already.

I'm tired of it, and you should be, too. It's no way to get on with your life, and a stellar way to stagnate. You sigh and you smile your sad smile; make comments suggestive of your heartache yet answer no questions: your whimpering is only making you a figure of pathetic irony. You have a chance to start...

It was obvious that I was in a certain amount of trouble.

A cool breeze had been blowing in off the coast of the little beach town I had found myself in; the sun was an hour from setting and casting its yellow and pink shadows over the horizon. The temperature was a touch above 80, and the humidity just a little sticky. All in...

Imagine that the world was once young.

Imagine that 100 million years ago, give or take the time for a lunch break, a Great Ancient Dragon Of Organic Limestone And Granite roused himself from a deep slumber and flew into the heavens, hungry for the meal of Stars, Planets, And Meteors that would sate his mighty appetite and allow him to live another 100 million...

I'm packed! Well...kinda. Okay, not really. However, I have sold some stuff and that's a kind of progress. In a way.

10 days to go. Then I can proceed to forget the drama here and re-enter all the wonderful drama I left behind 2 years ago. Still, things change, and people can, if they have the impetus and you allow them to.

I was looking...

You know why I never write? Cuz' no one reads this. I should go get a livejournal or something and drop hints around my friends so I have impetus to describe my life in a series of clicks and clacks.

I'm a level 45 shaman, now.
I'm ready to leave this place where people talk too much.
I'm traveling to many foreign places on the...

Nightmare Before Christmas.
Senorita Ballerina making a move.
Tasty ramen and sauce katsu made by old Japanese ladies.
A massage.
Being teased.
Witnessing excellent fight scenes and the birth of a modern legend.
Vanilla Creme Frapaccino.

This has been a good day.

From Japan, in just about a month, I'll return home to Portland. In an effort to become a more fulfilled and complete person, however, I'll be stopping in the following places on the way:

Vietnam, Malaysia, Sri Lanka, India, Turkey, Italy, Spain, New York (a country in it's own right)

Feel free to tag along.

On a different note, a person who doesn't appreciate country...

Oh man.
I went to the States and gained 12 pounds of lard.
All I did was eat eat eat. And eat s'more.
I can barely fit in my skirts anymore...on the other hand, my butt is more rounded. Hmm...

I've decided to stop using the JET program as a stalling device and get on with my life. Something about a continuing education and an actual career prompts me. Four feet of snow and wicked cold helps make the decision rational. Mexicans aren't built for all this. Samuidesuyo.

If you love someone, but they rarely put forth the effort to keep in touch or show...
