Hidemi and I played "no english" last night. I speak Spanish and she speaks Japanese and we have to work really hard to understand what the hell the other is saying. Dinner burned while we were signing and struggling.
Ive been getting all kinds of freak out emails from friends in the US and Canada about the "election". Here are a few excerpts from them, and this is the last time Im going to blab about it. After this post Im going to pretend that Ive taken my medication and everythings hunkey dorey... The president is swell!
I love this one- "oh, matt! i'm so depressed! i heard about two words of bush's victory speech in the car this afternoon and burst into tears. i think the general feeling here is like no one's in charge, no one knows what to do. it's like being a kid but with no grown-ups around; all the adults have vanished, and we're all bewildered wondering who's going to tell us what happens next. even the reformist organizations, like moveon.com and impeachbush.com are silent. the websites are down or neglected. it's so lonely. we're all isolated in our
basements waiting for the remaining signs of the apocalypse."
another friend says
"I have been making pipe bombs all night. I don't know, people are just depressed really. The upside is that it is a better set up for 2008 and it makes Bush have to deal with the problems he has created in the meantime. Keep on Rocking in the free world "(Japan).
Heres another "sheeeeat, vavy. i really thought people were smarter. the only thing that has made me feel better was watching steven colbert thank the red states on behalf of the blue states for "saving us from ourselves" on gays and terrorism.  it's the closest to a fuck you as i've seen, but i can't bring myself to turn on the television much right now, so it's not saying much. the south park debate between the Giant Douche and the Turd Sandwich was pretty funny shit too. maybe you should start setting up the tokyo chapter in some global refugee program for stunned and battered liberals like me and jesus.  in case they find my Darwin sticker. 
i mean, they'll probably just incinerate me, but whatever.  plan B in the house!
drowning in my soup, L"
Theres been a flood of hits on Immigrate to Canada websites from the states. Canada, you should totally take us. The good states are the ones who like hockey. You could have all your players back too!
Ok thats it.
