A happy news chaser, to clear your palate.

I bought a 30GB iPod yesterday to replace the one I lost. I also bought a new pair of Sennheiser CX 300 earbuds ($40 and they're the best I've ever owned). With the store points I collected from that purchase, I picked up an expensive and beautifully crafted and designed leather case for a mere 45 yen.
For the first time in ages, tonight I'm having dinner with my best friend and her cousin. That might not make you happy, but it sure makes me happy.
The book publisher for whom we're going to produce a podcast is mere centimeters away from approving the budget. Boy, will you be surprised when I can finally announce the company's name.
As previously mentioned, my home computer is fixed, and I didn't lose any data.
I'm going to take the kids to the International Tokyo Toy Show over the weekend, and the above-mentioned best friend and her daughter might come along. I think I'll be able to bribe the kids into helping with a videocast, on the condition that I let them do it in Japanese.
Life is boring, repetitive, lonely, soul-draining and tedious for me lately, but it won't be that way forever, and things could be a whole lot worse. I just need to make an effort to crawl out from under this rock.

I'm sure you have enough fans to help lift that heavy rock off you.

I just looked at my Frappr map for the first time in ages and the same thought came to mind. Here I am feeling really isolated, overworked and empty lately, and holy cow, there are a lot of people out there!

I'll be waiting for that videocast…
and don't lose that brandnew ipod now.

I love those earbuds too.

My life:
Boring – check
Repetitive – check
Lonely – check
Soul-draining – check
Tedious – check

Join the club! At least you've got all this cool blogging and podcasting stuff, heh? It sure livens up my days. Thanks.
