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.
