five years in Tokyo

twenty-seven years and one million words
Tokyo, 2010.07.18
Today marks the fifth anniversary of my original arrival in Tokyo.
It's not yet that long since I actually moved here—that date is in March—but it was this long weekend, at the outset of the hot Summer's hot weather, when I first arrived for what was supposed to be a six week job.
Five years already, where did it go?? I guess I know the answer—Kenny is almost exactly half that age.
I don't know what's coming of course, and where five years time might find me. But hopefully I've already laid the foundation for that.
