Mum nagged me again so here is the latest from Japan

Although she did show remarkable restraint and managed at least 7 minutes of normal conversation before bringing up my lack of bloggage. As usual my excuse is sheer laziness. That and my english is getting worse and worse. Seriously. I am relying on downloaded podcasts (that is like recording a TV programme except it is a radio show and I play it on my ipod, Dad) to maintain my english ability, which might not be the best idea, especially considering people calling in tend to introduce themselves as 'Sheryl off of Yorkshire', or 'Matt off of London'. It is that or Japanese engrish, sorry engLish.

Speaking of, while I was christmas shopping I came across this in a perfume display:

I didn't have the heart to tell the cashier what it said. Although seeing as it was surrounded by other perfumes that weren't in boxes you would think they could figure it out.

Someone who is good at figuring stuff out is the Grublet. I usually let her out of her cage for a run most evenings, and the other day while she was exploring my bedroom, she found the box that I keep her food in. The box with a latch. It took her about 12 seconds to chew the lock off and dive on in. Unfortunately, the lid locked behing her. heheh. I like this photo because she looks really shifty. Sorry its on its side - laziness again :)

And finally, this was from about 3 weeks ago outside my apartment. I didn't have time to get my proper camera so this is from my cell phone. It really doesn't do it justice. Haven't seen a good sunset since, mostly because if it isn't raining its snowing!
