My Trip

So work is sending me to Japan for 2 months and I needed a way to keep in touch with everyone, hence this blog. Part “hey, I’m still alive”, part diary, part travel guide, part chance to prove I’m not truly illiterate – however you look at it, the intended goal is to entertain. Apologies in advance for when I descend into a morass of homesick whining.

So long and thanks for all the fish

We’re done here for this contract! It’s been fun, but it’s definitely time to turn out the lights and go home. Now, how to empty the apartment back to its “furnished” state and pack all the acquired junk into the 4 bags the airline will let me have ... I think we’re going to introduce the Japanese (who generally value brand new things) to several concepts: a yard sale, “free to a good home”, and a pre-packed camping box. :-)

And no, I never thought that that quote would ever be appropriate in my life. But it’s oddly apropos right now.
