Thank you for your comments, I shall perservere with my writing. I just tried posting and lost a big 'ol long one, titled 'Quite a Leap' as I went from talking about tonight's dinner to the situation I find my life in now. Too bad, it wasn't a bad post, but it went wherever the lost posts go when...

OH My!
Oh my! It is very hot and humid again, back to running the AC full time. Oh my! The Japanese PM has resigned, yet again! Another guy just resigned just a year ago! I can't keep up with these guys! Two guys in a row have whimped out as the leader of this country. They threw in the towel, shamefully...

The Cicada's Mournful Cry
I rode around running errands this morning. Although it is hot again, there is a hint of cool and a promise that it won't last. The weather report says heat till the end of September....but the cicada's mournful cry states otherwise. It is very different, the cry in mid-summer and the cry now. Today...

The Best Breezes and Light of Hope
The light in this picture reminds me of a totally different place. It should belong to white washed buildings in some square in Barcelona, or along the Mediterranean in...France. I have been to neither place, but we have images even of places we've never been. You can tell the source of the light...

Rainy Sunday, and 'gaman'
Today it rained all day but has cleared up now this evening. It has cooled down considerably in the last three days. What a pleasant surprise! I was sure we would have to deal with the heat wave until mid September. I think it will probably get hot again but this is a nice reprieve. Today the high...

Saved by the Supermarket!
There was a mouse lying around the office, not doing anything so I nabbed it and brought it home. I can post in peace, at least for now. I felt really excited about this post yesterday, and today it is a race with my waning enthusiasm. OK so here is the rice. You can tell in the second picture that...

Today is cooler, well still hot, but cooler, the high is 30... I hope we don't have any more days 35 or over, but I am sure we will. This is the moon on Saturday evening. These two are evening shots again. I am afraid I am going to have to cut this short as my mouse went out on me. I thought I was...

Anniversary, non-trips, and being worn out by the summer
I just went out on the veranda in the hopes of the possibility of postable pictures, but there were none... Never mind today is our twentieth wedding anniversary! This makes me smile despite that I am worn out by the summer heat. We are going to a movie, I only know the Japanese title except that it...

Olymp-pinks
I am happy to be in the same time zone as this years Olympics! It has provided me with hours of viewing pleasure! I love the swimming, and the Judo, although I don't understand the rules that well, is really interesting to watch. I took Judo in college for a semester from a Japanese intructor. I...
