Updates and stuff
I have not posted in a while, so here goes.
To start for everyone I saw while I was home. It was good to see you and I wish I had had way more time.
Some of those reunions were a bit odd, you know who you are. LOL
For those I didn't get a chance to see, or not see enough, blame the cars, the house, the relatives...
I have been back in Japan for about 10 days now. It is frickin cold here, upper 30's during the day, it sucks.
I think I am getting a cold which sucks, but it will let me use my sick time that I couldn't use while I was at home. Bastards!
I am not sure where I am going to be for the next few months. I am supposed to be going to Singapore in the next couple of weeks, and we are still arguing about whether or not I will be coming back in the middle or not. I really don't feel like moving 3 times in the next 3 months. The good news is that it is warm and humid in Singapore so it will feel more like home.
I won't get into the other stupid crap that is going on at work, just believe me when I say that I think they look for ways to make things annoying and difficult.
This past weekend was pretty fun. Friday a bunch of us from work went up to Yokohama to have drinks and food at an English tavern. Afterwards about half of us hopped on a late train to Motomachi and spent the rest of the night clubbing. Then caught the early train back here. The clubs were not places I would normally go, but they were interesting. Some of the things "normal" people wear here are rather ammusing.
The noodle and I are thinking about getting a new car. That will be odd, I have never owned a new car. I tend to prefer old cars, but with me not being there a car that doesn't need TLC seems to be a good idea.
Hopefully my schedule will get organized soon so we can plan the noodles next trip over.
I started getting ready to do my taxes the other day and was working out when I was in and out of the U.S.
You may be interested. Each of the dates listed as "entered" or "left" correspond to stamps in my passport.
That's all for now. See ya.
