An Irishman in Tokyo
Been stood up for an hour here at Shannon's today. I am not upset, though: It's about time I sit on this end of the waiting game, the way I am always late for everything. Besides, it's a good time to unwind in the midst of a whirlwind trip around Japan. I have but a couple days left of this stay, and I am about ready to get back to my routines in Seattle. The drinking and eating, seeing so many people on the street, riding the trains... it's all fun and games, but I can see it would be too much pretty fast if I lived here. At the same time, though, I do love the city. I am never going to be ready to leave here -- there is still so much shopping to be done, for one;)
Some American r&b crap is playing over the speaker, there're a couple of scottish guys sitting next to me talking gossip, they seem more adjusted to this Tokyo life than I am - come to think of it, of course they are; I am the foreigner visiting here, they live in Tokyo.
