I never took care of my knees —
Now they’re crunchy and grumpy as bees.
Oh, I’m just thirty one,
But the dying’s begun,
And in my day we walked ten miles to school in three-hundred degree weather and there was only one gender and movies were better and now I can feel a draft from under the door, do you want me to freeze?

All in jest, of course! We have as much to learn from those who have come before us, as they have to learn from those of us who came after :)
But seriously, take care of your knees, kids.

Was I a Model in Japan?
During my time in Nagoya I worked and lived at the strangely famous hostel and café Nagonoya. With its chequered floors and florescent lighting it felt quite dated, but I think that was supposed to be part of the charm. The dorms were always fully booked on weekends with domestic tourists and there was always a buzz in the downstairs café. Camera crews were constantly in and out of the place interviewing the Japanese staff members who worked the café. I think it had something to do with the egg sandwiches. At least that was what was on most of the merchandise, except for that one dishcloth with the owner’s face on it. Was I being employed by a local celebrity?
