3rd year in Japan and each year I was on a busines trip somewhere for early April: the time of the 花見 parties. This time I was home and got to drink myself silly on a tarp under the cherry blossoms.
On the border of the 目黒川, I got to take some nice photos with the president of the 写真倶楽部.
2 weeks ago I went to Hiroshima for the weekend with my girlfriend. We had dinner (and innumerable drinks) with a friend of hers on Saturday night in the 本通 area at what must be the restaurant with the most perfect レバー焼き鳥 I've ever tasted.
Anyways, I received as omiyage the following which made me laugh a lot:
It's a set of senbei rice-crackers inscribed with examples of 広島弁, the local Hiroshima dialect. Whenever we're in Hiroshima, my girlfriend reverts to her roots and drops the Tokyo accent she acquired, especially when she's with her high-school friends. I'm usually totally lost...
Just a random conversation during one of my team's daily meetings at work:
Colleague: We have a problem with the *censored* server.
Boss: Where is that server located?
Colleague: It's in the Intellectual Property room, on the 2nd floor of the Reliability building.
Me: Yeah, you know that place? It's right next to the office of Lost Causes.
We always have lots of fun during our daily meetings.
