fool!

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Tokyo, 2005.07.19

Well, I've outdone myself. Today, when introduced to someone at work, I managed to call her a fool. It went like this:

(third party): "Michael, this is Honma."

Me: "Dhonma?"

Hommo: "Tonma?! You called me Tonma. It means 'fool'!"

Me: "Great. Perfect, really. Sorry."

The jetlag is clearing up a bit. By which I mean I'm tired all the time rather than just in fits and starts. Though the fits and starts make it worse.

The statistics on sanity are that one out of every four Americans is suffering from some form of mental illness. Think of your three best friends. If they're okay, then it's you.
