Red Alert


Good news, everyone!


I'm coming home for Christmas... again!

That's right, I'll be in Toronto for a whole two weeks starting on December 18th, returning to Japan on January 3rd, 2007 in the wake of my 27th birthday.

God. 27. That's starting to sound old.

No concern. I'm healthier, wealthier and wiser than I've been in past years, so I'm ecstatic about the chance to walk again through the historical chronicles of the life I had before I turned 25 and escaped from Ontario. I realize that it's only going to be about two weeks but it's the best I could do with my job schedule. After a short winter break in the hostile Canadian cold, I'll be back to Japan to finish the last 3 weeks of my contract before I depart to the exciting world of Southeast Asia with my reliable wingman Jacob Goldfarb.

27, though? At least it's not a prime number. Like, you know. 29.

Well, I'm off to work. Today I have quite a bit of free time to study, and my friend Ai told me that if I can memorize 20 new kanji characters, I win a free beer. Not a bad deal!

Start thinking of the things you want to say to me when you see me...

This just happened outside of my apartment as I was writing this:
