So here I am, using one of the only 2 terminals at work which can access Livejournal and similarly essential websites.

Work is work, no need to say anything much about it. Would get tedious very quickly anyway.

I live to prep for The Japan Trip (TJT).
Already begun Research proper on all the dinky addresses/places and maps/direction to these places. It is incredibly excite. Yes, everytime I do any prep work for TJT I occupy that Happy Place called the State of (Occasionally Perpetual) Psych.

Although the Japanese addressing system still worries me very vey much.

Google Maps will help me through this. (That and their fabulous function where you can drag and drop a little human figure onto the map and 360 degree views of the actual place will load. I have not come across something this insanely awesome in a while. You can obviously look left and right however, you can also look up, up, up, down and stroll down the street. It's like ALMOST BEING THERE my good people. Good God, Google is an Entity of Utter Kickass unto itself. )

Lunch break is ending so I'm off to bum around Tokyo for a bit before getting my ass back to work.
(Holy Crap, the blasted air-conditioning around the computer is goddamn freezing. My fingers are going numb like I'm in Paris Disneyland, during winter,  sometime in the evening.)
