We Live Where We Are

Apology is Policy

I want to apologize for the lack of pictures posted lately. Originally, I wanted this blog to be more photo-oriented, and I swear I'll get it back on track for all you casual readers. I'm a bit limited at the moment, as I can only access the internet from my work computer, which operates entirely in Japanese. Julianna and I just recieved our "gaijin" alien registration cards, however, so we're now eligible to get broadband set up at our apartment. But it might take another week or so.

I'm here at my school now, pounding out the details for my self-introduction lesson. I gave two short speeches this morning. The first was at the teachers meeting, and I stumbled through my notes in haltering Japanese. I think it went over rather well, considering. The second speech was a brief self-introduction at this morning's all-school assembly. Naturally, I got a few laughs when I had to adjust the height of the microphone. And the students liked it when I dropped the obvious Ichiro reference in regard to Seattle.

More later...
