Today

It's been amazing here recently. Great weather, great kids at school (well mostly great), great husband (as always!), great friends, great food....the list goes on and on and on. I got some of my pictures back, and I really liked about half of them (which isn't too bad I guess). I still have more that I want to take - hopefully this weekend I'll get some good clicks. I learned a bit about night photography during the Kurama no Hi Matsuri - most of my pictures turned out like sh** but I got ONE good one. one. But it's SWEET! It's the first picture I've taken with a really long exposure time, and I am so excited about it. I'll put it up soon - as soon as I feel like dealing with my annoying scanner. I was going to put a good link on here too of some night photography information that I read a while back, but I can't find the dang site! I think Xian sent me to it at some point in time...

Throwing trash away in this country is craziness. We have this crapped out monitor now (thanks to little Shisa-chan), and it will cost us probably $30 just to throw it away - plus shipping to the place that takes old computer stuff. Thank goodness the students at Kyodai (Kyoto University) have a "student dump" behind one of the old decrepid music practice buildings. The monitor will join it soon.

I have to stop typing now because Shisa thinks that my moving fingers are a game, and it's nearly impossible to finish a word.
