A Japanese Adventure: A Celebration
http://ajapaneseadventure.blogspot.com/2010/06/celebration.html
Saturday, June 12, 2010. I guess more accurately here is good afternoon, but I slept in 'til noon today. It's such a glorious day outside, so perfect with my sliding doors open and looking out at the mountains and city (of course unfortunately with a few electrical lines in the way.). I've got a load of laundry in the machine, ready to hang in the sun. I guess it's such a glorious day because I had such an amazing time last night. A sort of celebratory evening. A celebration for what you ask? I GOT A JOB!

Wednesday, January 28, 2009. I dare you to read the following excerpt from a piece John Updike wrote for the New Yorker about the pleasure of drinking water and not immediately realize how thirsty you are. If you'll excuse me, I have a date with a water fountain. Great post found via Serious Eats. Tuesday, January 27, 2009. Get back to you later. Thursday, January 22, 2009. That's Monsieur Milo to you. Tuesday, January 20, 2009. I was pressed into our crowded, but silent employee cafeteria. With lots of ...

A Japanese Adventure: Beginning to End
http://ajapaneseadventure.blogspot.com/2010/06/beginning-to-end.html
Monday, June 21, 2010. Was posted on the JET Programme website. It's from one of my absolute first days in Japan at orientation. Was interesting to see and think about as my leaving is quickly approaching. I've been in contact with my successor this past week. It's crazy to think about how many things I want to tell her and help her with! There are many things you have to learn as you go, but I'm trying to give her as much help as possible as it's a big transition! See you in a few weeks people!

A Japanese Adventure: Perfect Friday
http://ajapaneseadventure.blogspot.com/2010/06/perfect-friday.html
Monday, June 28, 2010. Well, this weekend was huge in reminding me of the reality: I’m leaving in less than three weeks. I have two weekends left in Japan and then I’m out! Mt Fuji has lost most of it's snow! Climbing season starts this week. I'm actually going to a festival. On Saturday that celebrates the beginning of the climbing season! So much junk food! I got a traditional outfit called a jimbei. I wish I could have practiced English with you more! Second year students (juniors). For almost an hour!

Unlimited: Milo's Birthday Bash
http://kristinsutter.blogspot.com/2010/02/milos-birthday-bash.html
Friday, February 26, 2010. In case you were wondering, Milo turns 3 this Sunday. We let this fact slip to Milo's daycare. Today while dropping him off this morning and were sent the pictures below about an hour ago:. Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's steak on that platter. Knowing we were in trouble, Andy and I had the following conversation via Gchat:. He's never coming home. We can't beat that. We definitely have to get a birthday banner now. And a party hat. Dinner from paulina meat market for milo tonight.

Friday, February 27, 2009. Current(ish) T.V. Theme Songs I Love:. How I Met Your Mother. I always make Andy listen to this and sing along with me. Also one of my favorite tv shows on right now. Makes me feel like a badass. I'm still not sure I like this show too much but I absolutely love the song. I have no idea why. So catchy! Premium channel shows always have kickass intros. I'm no superman. True. Another HBO show with awesome credits. Hot. Annoying. and a little creepy. Wednesday, February 25, 2009.

A Japanese Adventure: Daruma
http://ajapaneseadventure.blogspot.com/2010/06/daruma.html
Wednesday, June 30, 2010. Long ago when Paul was visiting, I bought my first daruma. On So call it a wish or a goal, but it's officially set into stone! It is said that in order to motivate Daruma-san to fulfill your wish, you must promise him full sight upon him granting your wish. So, Mr. Daruma, please give me good luck and I'll give you sight, partially granted by Sharpie, Inc. When you buy it, it looks like this with no eyes. Thats awesome. Makes me want a daruma.
