twenty-eight years and a million words

Toronto, 2007.09.19

We spent the whole day sorting out the stuff in my storage unit. In addition to the teak tables, it seems that I'll be sending a dozen or so boxes full o' junk to Tokyo.

I also managed to find a good home for my bike and my "old" monitor (by which I mean the then-year-old monitor that went into storage when I left).

I'm shipping it all with an outfit that I found online. It's going to take a dog's age to get out there, but that's to be expected when you're crossing a large continent and the largest ocean in the world.

Tonight we went to the Orbit Room to see LMT Connection play. My mum was unable to go due to a migraine, but for Ken and me it was another in a string of shows going back to '92 or so. It must have been a dozen shows for Sailor Yoon, too. For Mari it was the first show, of course.

Apparently the baby was kicking up a storm throughout.

I bought a couple of CD's to support the band and to bring their music with me back to Japan. They're likely rarities on this side of the globe, I reckon.
