I am back in Vancouver. My flight went extraordinarily smoothly, the cherry blossoms are still in bloom, the walls of the room I will stay in are yellow and yes…it is nice to be back. But I miss Japan already. I just looked at my last post – the picture. It is almost from a story book. I get to go back. But then after that? On the way to Narita I was thinking to myself – this year, it has possibly destroyed my ability to settle down somewhere normal (ie. Canada)…settle down? I am contemplating how much I want to do that.
In the cab this morning we drove by the Dunbar houses on hills – large, 3-storied, lawns, landscapes, etc. The dream house but how much work? To pay for it and to keep it up. Then you have this huge house for your children to stay inside of all day and run around the spacious rooms but…you are chained to that property.
Anyway…sidetrack. I am falling asleep and need to stay up for 6 more hours. What to do, what to do…shopping? I need to shoes. Since I can’t keep my eyes open at the computer it might mean that I should hit Gravity Pope…
