Hi, Monnie! It's so good to see you posting again -- how is graduated life treating you? I'm having fun in Japan, Ehime is still full of nice people and interesting culture. I've finally figured out that it's rude to talk in taxis because the taxi driver might overhear; big problem with the American instinct that ignoring your host and letting the conversation lapse is far ruder. It's so cool to see this after so long! *takes the opportunity to laugh at everyone who can't just call up the chat logs to see what happens next* I know the timezone thing is still a royal pain, but we should catch up sometime. I hope your life is going swimmingly (Where will you work? Let me guess -- you're coming to Japan on September 3, right? I predict this because my visa expires on the second.) and that all good things are yours. -Mari
