ah, eff it! this kinda junk happens everywhere in the world (but probably a bit less in japan). getting mad, sad, or just beating yourself up over it only makes you tired. really really tired.
at least that's what i've been telling myself, lately. year 4 in japan for old vets like us can be taxing--i guess when it gets TOO taxing, it's time to bounce the eff out ninja-style.

i keep my pics small on purpose. not sure why. maybe so others can't use 'em without permission, i guess, but not really for that reason.
but thank you for the super nice words on my blog. being that i also appreciate your photos, i am quite happy to be complimented by someone else who loves to take pictures. it's like were both part of some secret, super nerdy club.
keep your head up over that bike. it's junk, but not super-bad junk relative to some of the other injustices in the world.
i never asked, hows the new job?
