When I got to Japan, blogger just started presenting itself in Japanese. This was good in one way because it forced me to figure out Kanji I hardly ever see, and it was bad in another as I didn't have a clue about commenting and the like. Thus, I wouldn't respond to people's comments because I never knew I had any, and you had to have a google acct. to post. However, but annoying points are gone know as I receive an email know whenever I get a comment (to my cell phone, no less) and you don't need a google acct. So, comment freely and I will be sure to reply to you (eventually).

So, what's been happening lately? It's been getting cold. Stupid cold. I type this under the warming glow of my kotatsu with about 3 layers of clothes on and my Kerosene heater begging to be turned on. We've already received about a metre of snow on some days and it's always about 8C when I get up. But, the temperatures vary wildly during the day. Mornings may be cold-ass cold, but mid day will be summer hot. What the hell Japan? Whatever, I'm just going to bubble wrap my apartment when I get some tape.

I have a lot of back entries that I need to put up, but I think I'll do that kinda slowly. I also have a new camera, so I should finally get some good pics of my town and great kids up before the semester is done.
