危ない所

Some of you had me going for a minute there ... yesterday I was about 5 seconds away from just getting up and leaving this place for good. But that'd be like killing yourself because you're depressed. It's a permanent solution to a temporary problem!

I like to have somewhat of a plan (though the perfect moments only arrive when they're not planned for), so here's the "skeleton" of what I intend to do:

- Wait here for another month or so.
- Live in Japan for a couple years, level up
- Come back to the US with more skill, money
- Do whatever the fuck I want.

Anything more specific than that is relegated to more immediate events. For example, looks like the weekend of June 17th-19th (or 20th, or 21st) will be the next Philly/New England trip. Hey, that's in 2 weeks!

Ooh, one of the old ladies here just gave me a piece of cranberry bread. I wonder if it's because I'm looking particularly emaciated, or what. You know what I had for dinner last night? Bread & olive oil, and then 2 cookies. Don't get me wrong, it was all very good.

Wouldn't the world be a boring place if everything made sense? If all music was in 4/4, and no one ever considered that raw octopus might be really good to eat? Hooray for the manic end of the emotional pendulum's swing!
