State of My Life Address

1. On 2 February, I sent in my application to join the 69th Global PB Voyage, leaving in mid April and returning in mid July. I'm applying to be a partner for Hibakusha, special guests who lived through the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and/or Nagasaki, in getting their stories out to the world via the intertubes.

   Don't know yet if I'll be accepted, but I'm optimistic.

2. I live alone now that Soness is on vacation for two weeks. I'll be able to hopefully adjust my schedule to wake up earlier and be more rested for morning meditation.

3. I haven't yet told my student+friend Emiko that I may go on PB, but I have told Traci.

4. I-group hasn't met in a while, it seems; we keep cancelling for low attendance reasons.

5. I've not yet been in touch with Hinako, on whom I immediately developed a crush when I met her over a month ago. I have her contact info now though, so I may email her.... I haven't yet, though cause I don't want her to say "no" or not even say anything.

6. I met Joanna and Tallulah on Wednesday, totally fell in love with Joanna solo on electric cello (and looper) so when she finished her set, I went immediately up with cash in hand, "I want your CD" and she was like, "wow!" and when I heard she had another CD, I pulled out another 1000 yen. "I'd like your other CD too," and got some pics and hugs and it was great. Went to see them again in Kichijoji last night for their last show in Japan for a while. Hung out with them + Mike, who was helping coordinate+translate for them, and the band Hekireki, members of which work in a cool bar in Kichijoji that doubles as an interior store during the day.

7. I've barely started a project to rewrite my journal index using Python + Django. It's just got a Hello World to show that it's running for now, so I shan't link it yet. django.robnugen.com

8. I've got to move a bit of money to the US to pay for my Amazon Storage, about $4. The money is so minor; it's the currency conversion that's more of an issue. Actually I don't even know that my GoLloyd's account... in fact, I'm sure my GoLloyd's account is pointing at the wrong account number cause they closed it without notifying me when I had zero balance. Wamu customer service went down the crapper and never looked back.

9. Currently girlfriendless, though sometimes Emiko and I are a bit cuddly. I really don't know what she'd like optimally, but I'm enjoying the non-committed platonic play.

10. My computer CD drive doesn't always read CDs and doesn't usually spit them out on the first try.

11. My iPhone has a buncha games on it.
