Wednesday, July 30, 2008. And making it national for JETs throughout the country, saying goodbye to friends (Edel left on Sunday :( and hello to new ones (the first of our two new Honjo people arrives today! Converting my students` musings (example: "What put in question is not understood only from it") into meaningful English for an upcoming speech contest and, oh so happily, rowing again! Wednesday, July 16, 2008. Stopping for a seaside Lawson's break on our way there. A scary and strange float. Yo...

Sunday, February 24, 2008. Last weekend I went to Yokote's kamakura festival, for which a few parts of the town are filled with igloo-like snow huts. Friendly locals manned the huts (very homey inside! An inside look.surprise! You have to take off your shoes. A small shrine kamakura. We finally made it inside one! Amelie, jon, owen, cathy and edel. I was very disappointed when I discovered this snow sculpture was not a rabbit, as I had hoped from afar, but pikachu. My favorite picture from the festival!

Tuesday, March 25, 2008. We can now all have an answer to that plaguing question - what the heck was doug's spirit animal? According to Jesse, whose animal expertise I trust, it was a serow. In its native language). Mystery solved! Monday, March 24, 2008. Which I declared to be Doug's spirit animal. Mystery spirit animal running away. At the zoo, I was convinced I had found the spirit animal from the day before. I had never seen one before, it was called a capybara. Unfortunately, my friend Maiko pointed...

sophie in akita: December 2007
http://sophiesaffron.blogspot.com/2007_12_01_archive.html
Monday, December 10, 2007. Maybe I should backtrack a little. "What is a love hotel? I can't believe I'm leaving for Thailand next week - it is totally surreal to think that in a short time I will be lying on the beach IN THAILAND, going snorkeling, visiting temples in Bangkok etc. CRAZY! Friday, December 7, 2007. Baby, it's cold outside. Akita is getting ridiculous amounts of coverage in the nytimes. here. You can compare with my own pics of the exact same spot (taken back over autumnal equinox). In oth...

Maritime Fun with Cap'n Guthrie: Where I've been
http://cleverbeans.blogspot.com/2008/02/where-ive-been.html
Maritime Fun with Cap'n Guthrie. Now having sailed SIX! Of the Seven Seas. Saturday, February 09, 2008. Well, well, well. Look what the cat dragged in". I shuffle into the back of the blogosphere, collar up as if splayed across a neighborhood watch sign, and sit down. Wooden foldout screeching a protest and shifting slightly to the right as I sit on empty air and crash to the floor causing a disturbance that draws no eyes from the empty room. It boggles me to jumbles. I will share with you. I've never ea...

Maritime Fun with Cap'n Guthrie. Now having sailed SIX! Of the Seven Seas. Thursday, July 19, 2007. I can't tell you how difficult it is to play the role of punisher and punished simultaneously, to be the one standing shipside of the plank with a scimitar:. Ye broke the cardinal rule of music blogging: not hosting yer own MP3's. Whats worse, ye been using Badongo, putfile and (Spits on the deck) RAPIDSHARE? No no I swear! I'm getting to it. I'll start hosting as soon as I can, I swear". I readjust my cap...

Monday, July 2, 2012. She sat atop layers of messy blankets, sheets. And watched him with hands curled behind her knees, tightly. To try and harness heat and sweat inside of her palms. To prove to herself that she wasn't dying as he. Stuffed records, ties, a few books, clothing into a laundry basket. Laid a wrinkled grey suit on a hanger over the top. Paused at the Otis Record. Left it. I'm disappearing he said. Like you asked. Don't pretend you're a magician. She's been dreaming of strange days.
