randomness

Randomness post.
It's gotten very hot here. Still the rainy season but today was GORGEOUS...even though it was technically 100 degrees. Little to no humidity, so bathing in the sun, for what we could, was extremely nice.

But I really need to post things so enjoy a randomness post.



nom nom nom. Pizza from the bread section in the grocery stores. Japanese= obsession with bread. All kinds of bread. except rarely bagels (much to my despair). Cold pizza covered with crazy stuff is included. The left one was good and normal but the corn and seaweed (sea grass as one of my friends accidentally called it) was a bit...weird. The right one has egg on it. No joke.

Nom nom ice cream- vanilla, chocolate and almond! Actually very good- also excellent for diet control :P

Emiko asked me to grow a giraffe. And so I did.



The Japanese walk their dogs. But they also walk their cats.

This cat gets a lot of outdoor action. It's out a lot on its leash.


Speaking of getting a lot of action, manholes get a lot of action. The Okazaki ones are really nice.


Okazaki castle, the flower festival, and the famous hanabi (firework festival) all in one on a manhole.


This one is from Nagoya. I thought it was just plain amusing.

Took that manhole on the way back from the Volks store which was found when exploring Nagoya. Found quite a few things actually- the second secondhand shop in Osu Kannon, the Tenshi no Sumika Volks store, Jesus Diamante.....
Got a wig, stand, and a few accessories for assembly (need to restring my one doll Sakura). Linn is currently sporting her new Alice outfit that I had crescent (shopping service) ship finally to me here. Also her new wig. This one is by far the best- and the greatest purchase.
She's sporting the Volks brand...all the way :P

Speaking of dolls, planning to go to Home Town Dolpa Osaka 6 and extremely excited about it. May be able to see a friend in Kyoto that day as well. So just throwing it out there- could get outfits and such if any of my friends may want anything. No pictures are up yet, but throwing out the offer.

And now I sleep. I have quite a few things to post, so I will try to post at least picture posts!
