* Eating sushi with friends (and bonus if your sushi chef happens to be from O’ahu and talks to you in pidgen!)
* Signing up for a continuing education course at the university (I never thought I’d see the day I wanted to be back in a classroom…but I’m glad it’s happening)

A couple of friends went to Hawaii for a vacation last week. I was happy for them but a little bitter. Why should they get to go? They wouldn’t appreciate delicacies like the Spam musubi and chicken long rice!** They would probably drive right past the lunch wagon without noticing. Who would direct them to [...]

Life really is a cycle. I’ve been feeling sooo much better than I did a week or so ago. Better about work, better about personal things, even better about this blog. I’m so relieved. Yesterday Chris and I met up for sushi at our favorite restaurant (how can the fish and octopus taste so fresh [...]

Last week I learned (through eavesdropping) that there’s a mice problem in my office. Apparently the head of the advertising department has taken to putting out traps and releasing the mice across the street. Ahem.

I feel like I haven’t posted anything of substance here in a long time. I just haven’t had the urge to. Things were difficult at work for a little while and I didn’t do a good job of leaving it there so things got difficult at home. But I think it’s finally turning for the [...]
