June 2008

Daniel-san came over. He left in such a hurry, and the trip back the other month were short, but this time around things were different. Using his words: “I got closure (from Japan)”.

This vows good for me. Cautiously good, is what it vows. I’ve been depositing monthly in the happiness-bank of Japan. I expect some kind of turnover when it would finally be time to cash out. The question is just how big my return on investment is.

Daniel were reluctant to drop his formula for happiness here, or actually, I forgot to ask.
But we did have a nice dinner. Had some kind of skewers. He had cow that may or may not have been massaged in Kobe.

No pictures. My cellphone were turned off by the caring people of Softbank, and my camera was gone.

Have I been avoiding a connection at home?
One might say so. But no, mostly it stems from my inability to “telephone”.

I mail.

That’s what I do on a cellphone: I mail.
Talking I don’t care that much for, if talking means spending more time than giving directions or saying “I’ll be late”.
It’s not that I am afraid of the phone. I just need to see people when talking. Mouths moving, or whatever.

…and that is why I haven’t ordered internet for half a year.

Now I have, though. Should be up in a month.
