it’s official,

It’s official, get me the plaque, the wall-mount -we’re going global !

It has now been confirmed. For the sake of your entertainment; and for a hopeful ‘up’ in readership numbers for pity’s sake I can now say that my boiler has gone to none. It is dead.

Is it all that bad? Is this how the story will end?

I have learned a few things here on my very short and miniature hotdog sized tenure here in Japan that it doesn’t work (okay, it doesn’t work for me/it’s not worth) pulling the curtains off the rings over things that you can’t control. That is, freaking out like frankenstein over a problem/sitch is not the way to handle.

What am I trying to say? Aside from tremendously enjoying writing this post and blog, I am trying to tell you that I have already had surprises and disappointments during my time here. Internet, water, surprise payments for things, expensive payments for things, welcome and unwelcome visits by bugs in my house, etc. (Though the good news is that I am now friends with more insects than I ever was before and I can now not ever complain to you about my being lonley)!

So. I am, as a hard eastern European lad, now resorting to life as they do in countrysides and countries and varietous places. Hot water by boiling, etc. And showers by boiling. I’ve had all this time to boast to happy ears about how I studied other cultures in Uni (that be University), and how I’ve travelled to loads of unforgiving and interesting places -can you say that you’ve slept in a room with a tarantula AND a lizard (or several lizards)? Maybe you can. And if that be so I want to be your friend.

This now, the hot water naught, being the situation I will allow myself the excuse to treat myself to a few more than normal meals out, counselling via skyp e (haha), a re-working of my contract with my agent, and any some things that will ease the stress of not have HOT WATER throughout the winter here.

I can’t tell if I’m shocked.

But the bright and tight news is that I am still in Japan, the food here tastes great, and I have wicked holiday plans. Hoping that any soiling of planning is kept at a bare minimum.
Anywho..

I am glad to be your entertainment -and I am continually being cultured and prepared for whatever next life passes on by to me.
Are you enjoying yourself wherever you be?
I hope so.

Life is only worth living every day.

And golly did I just have a good dollar’s worth of a chilled maple/vanilla convenience store latte. Now you have yours.

Until next crime,

ciao !
