Typhoon weather

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Tokyo, 2007.09.06

For the record, typhoon weather is fncking ridiculous. It's raining so hard that the streets are ankle deep, but the wind is so strong that umbrellas just disintegrate. And yet it's also warm and humid enough that you're just as soaked from sweat on the inside of your shorts as you are in the knees and shoes. Rrrr!

Character is like a tree and reputation like its shadow. The shadow is what we think of it; the tree is the real thing.
