Okay okay - I hear your complaints and I'm trying to write more. Sorry Cindy. It's just that nothing incredibly interesting is happening to me latley. I think that everything that happens to me is pretty interesting, but that's beside the point.
Last week was spent in Tokyo. The usual stuff went down while I was there. They have really beefed up customs at Narita airport and I got a full pat-down. I think maybe a full "rub-down" might be more appropriate as the customs officer totally fondled my manhood - twice! Don't be fooled buddy - the weapon I'm packing is totally legal. :)
The taxi driver got lost on the way to the office and we only got there eventually because I just happened to see the building out of the corner of my eye. That is always my fear. Tokyo is so hard to get around and they rarely speak English. But they are too damn polite to tell you they have no idea where your trying to go, so they do their best which sometimes results if you not getting where you need to go. If I was particularly motivated, I could probably just walk next time. Or maybe have someone show me how to use the subway to get there. I didn't get home until 9:00 or 10:00 every night, so I had just enough time to run grab room service before bed. Pretty boring.
I did get a chance to get reacquainted with an old friend of mine - exercise! I had no idea how much I missed running until I spent some time on the treadmill. The gym of the hotel has an amazing view of the city - it's really neat to watch while you're running. It put me in such a great headspace.
Anyway, so this weekend has been pretty mellow. I picked up a really cool book called Friends With You. From what I can tell, these two guys (Samuel Borkson and Auturo Sandoval) started out making these weird little stuff animals that gradually developed into some really neat graphic art and full blown installations at major modern art museums. Anyway, I've been trying to study art more because I like it but I'm ignorant. Not sure if this book helped or hurt, but it had pretty pictures!
