A friend of mine wrote me to see if I wanted to go to Design Festa this fall. It’s a craft festival held at Tokyo Big Site convention center in the spring and fall every year. It’s not jury-ed so while one booth might be displaying water colors of birds, the next one might sell […]

My secondary reviewer decided to go to Cambodia. So after she left I just hung on in Bangkok working on projects in an empty hostel that smelled like paint fumes for a while. During this period I was feeling kind of low, but I was passing a guy every day who really inspired me. He […]
On Skype tonight wrapping up a conversation with an elderly lady United Attendant about travel using my frequent flyer miles: Me: Okay, well, Thank you. United Employee: Uh hungh, okay. Me: I really appreciate it. United employee: Okay, Uh hugh, I Love you. Me: Good bye. United Employee: Good bye.
Big News: I’m going to be in the Guinness book of world records, and I didn’t even have to do anything disgusting, friends. I’m going to be in it for doing the most continuous yoga postures with the most people (in the shape of a heart) in the world! If eight year old Emily could […]
I saw this guy in the crosswalk in Hiroo walk right into a cab that was stopped in the middle of the crosswalk. The man was blind and he was mad. I haven’t see that very often. I guess you’re so vulnerable when you’re blind and reliant on the assistance of others, you have to […]
I just came back from Starbucks. The lady asked me if I wanted a bag and I said, bag? I don’t need a cup. I don’t need water. And then I said sometimes I think, and then I gestured like I was opening the packet of dehydrated coffer, pouring out a line of it, and […]
Over my upper lip there’s a super tiny streak of pencil thin freckles. It’s new and virtually invisible to the disinterested, but it does resemble a pencil mustache, on my face, not something a lady usually welcomes. This year with the sun, I’ve only needed to welcome half of it because the freckles have only […]
I took a job at a junior high last week. I guess I just can’t resist the sweet cheesy clam smell of pubescent teens in the summer. Also I’m completely broke. Out of money. Damn. Why me? It turns out it’s hard to make your first million from signing up for medical studies off of […]
I heard there was a place on word-press where you could see the search terms that had led readers to your sight. So people say this might help you with a theme for your blog. I’m lacking a theme and life direction in general, so I thought it couldn’t hurt to take a look at […]
Yesterday the neighbor did something in their apartment and something fell in my apartment. I thought it was funny at first ala Arested Development. Then I turned around and looked at what fell. It was a hairbrush and my i-phone. Into the toilet. Damn. That’s not funny. Full disclosure: This is not the first time […]
