Danblog: Repeatitude
http://traylordan.blogspot.com/2009/11/repeatitude.html
Live from Mie, Japan. Tuesday, November 24, 2009. Every year, the somewhere-under-100 Mie JET program ALTs gather in the capitol city, Tsu, for a November meeting, the agenda for which is this: discuss the meeting to be held in January. Mainly they bring us there to force us to decide who will have to give presentations at said January seminar. And essentially, it's already decided, on a mysterious document known as "The List.". Since I'm not a qualified dentist (anymore) I plan to schedule an appointmen...

Danblog: The Swine and the Surgical Mask
http://traylordan.blogspot.com/2009/09/swine-and-surgical-mask.html
Live from Mie, Japan. Tuesday, September 15, 2009. The Swine and the Surgical Mask. Swine Flu is making its way through my school this week, with one 40-student homeroom on a 3-day leave because the virus was spreading rapidly. A few other cases from other classes, all second-years (juniors), have been reported. I am trying to remember to wash my hands more often, and I need to get in the habit of bringing my own hand towel.There are no paper towels and hand-dryers in the bathrooms here, just a singl...

Danblog: I want my money back
http://traylordan.blogspot.com/2009/09/i-want-my-money-back.html
Live from Mie, Japan. Sunday, September 6, 2009. I want my money back. Here now, is a weekend wrap-up:. On Friday, mainly I lost money. Well that wasn't the plan, but a post barbecue trip to the bar led to an impromptu 3-person poker game, a tournament-style hold-em bout that I failed to win. Here is the money (roughly $30) in the original pot. Then I went with a friend to the Port of Nagoya, where we toured an old scientific-explorer ship-converted-into-a-museum. More on that in a later post, perhaps.

Danblog: Home from work ... the rains pick up ... oh right, plus wind ...
http://traylordan.blogspot.com/2009/10/home-from-work-rains-pick-up-oh-right.html
Live from Mie, Japan. Wednesday, October 7, 2009. Home from work . the rains pick up . oh right, plus wind . It's 20 after 5 pm and I've arrived home from work. The rain has been going non-stop since morning, but it is just now starting to pick up. Drainage ditches through the rice fields are filling up but not overflowing. The nearby Seta River is high, but I've seen it higher in periods of heavy rain. A ways to go before even close to threatening overflow. At the moment I'm just sitting at home checkin...

Danblog: Phase shift
http://traylordan.blogspot.com/2009/10/phase-shift.html
Live from Mie, Japan. Wednesday, October 7, 2009. It's 10 to 9 and things are picking up out there. I can hear the wind whaling and bursts of rain up against the window. I just took a peak outside and saw an ambulance or something up the road. Could be unrelated but not sure. The water on the roadway looks gnarly in the wind. More later. And a note to family: If we lose power, I may change over to twitter. See my feed at www.twitter.com/danofthenorth. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
