Back in Calgary… maybe even sadly back in Calgary. It’s a good place, but the romanticism of a new place and a beautiful girl still carries. No complaints there… I’m not sure what the future holds here. … I was saying that before I left… but before I left I thought with confidence that I’d be shutting this website down […]

I haven:t been proof reading, and I:m making the same mistakes over again and again. I refuse to relearn typing for a Japanese keyboard layout. Rain yesterday. Masaharu calls sometime when we:re still sleeping to say, if it keeps up he has plans for us. It rains all day. The sun sets and it only rains harder… We pick up […]
A Night on the Kakegawa Touge
Since I arrived at my new in-laws… time is just flying by. I can:t believe our shower was a week ago… it could:ve been yesterday. Japan is starting to grow on me. Sumo was something… a 5+30 wake up that day, to get us from Yoshiko:s house, to the train station, and then a two hour ride on the Shinkansen […]
Does that FAT man have something on me? Sumo.
Yoshiko:s love of sleeping way in gives me lots of time for writing lately. Hit the ocean yesterday. Tonnes of sand, gigantic caltrops (??)… beautiful waves… but pretty bloody windy and cold. I took some pics and we got out fast. Afterwards, picked up the guys, and met Hitomi for 100Y Kaitenzushi. That sushi on a conveyer belt that rolls […]
Use Your Power For Good
Tried to run an all out car day yesterday, as a sort of escape. Went drifting at Motorland Mikawa with Masaharu and his old Sunny in the morning. The boro boro style at best. Left the gas cap 2hours behind in Hamamatsu. Left turns were sloshing gas all over the track... they punted us, and we couldn:t rig anything up to make the officials happy. 3500Y gets you one hour on the track... run as much as you want... small track... 2nd gear action, third gear if your ballsy... built just for drifting. Another 2000Y gets you your second hour [...]
Motorland Mikawa with Masaharu
Arrived in Hamamatsu, and met Yoshiko:s immediate family, and some of her distant family. My ability to speak Japanese may have improved, but listening to full speed Japanese is still a major stress. I guess now I can understand how Yoshiko felt in Canada. Japanese keyboard is different… and I:m using some archaic form of notebook that can:t even wrap […]
