. nelson pointed out that here the moon is the other way up.
. the bugs in the terrarium at the train station are killing each other. bug body parts are all through the sawdust. i find this very distressing.
. this week is not so bad: one day on one day off two days on half day training in tokyo then a day off.
. nelson & i went to shosenkyo gorge 'the most beautiful ravine in japan.' it was pretty cool. temperature wise too, the mountains are much more reasonable than kofu basin. there's a little shrine at the start with Y1 coins stuck in all the cracks in the rock face. the map had pictures of monkeys, but i didn't see any, though i spent much of the walk calling 'Watashi wa saru ga suki desu!', & 'Saru-san wa, doku desu ka?' (the japanese lessons are paying off in amusement for me at least, if not actual communication).
. i think i'll go make more gyoza now.

It's sad about the body parts, but bugs in a terrarium at the train station!? I think that would be one of my few motivations for ever going to work.

yeah, the bugs were cool. they were fighting bugs! and sometimes they were loving bugs! they were fed on small jellies! but now they're mostly strewn in pieces in the sawdust.
