Finally finished the Runaways issue this morning. My finger tips are numb from gripping my ink pens too hard and my wrist is killing me. It was an extended holiday in Japan starting last Saturday but I didn't get to see the light of day since I was so freakin' busy. Think I'm gonna let off some steam by doing some shopping. I need some new clothes for the summer anyway.
I've booked my ticket backhome in August. Just for 2 weeks but I'll be back in Toronto in time for the fan expo so I plan to check that out for a day. My sister's wedding is on the same weekend so I'll probably hit it on Friday all jetlagged. It'll be good to see some old faces and see what's new with comics. I haven't really read any in a long time. In fact, come to think of it, I haven't picked up anything here as well in a while. I used to pick up Afternoon every month but I found that I was only reading Blade of the Immortal and some random gag strips from it that I stopped. I flip through comic magazines at the local 7-11 cuz, y'know, that's free but I feel like the dude at the register is always eyeing me to buy it so... haha.
What else have I been doing... Oh, I attended a friend's wedding 2 weekends ago. Congrats, Matt!! I wore my spankin' new suit to it which was kinda cool and different. It's been about 3 years since wearing one and it felt kinda nice actually. The wedding was in the Grand Hyatt in Roppongi which is probably one of the nicest and classiest places to get hitched. My first time to see a shinto style wedding where the bride and groom were decked out in wedding kimono's and a very foreign progression of events leading up to the exchange of rings. No kiss! Well, they made up for it at the after party.
Oh, crap. I just remembered I need to get my J-passport... Man, looking at all the documents I need it's gonna be another marathon around Tokyo. Yay, me.
Tak
