Updates, updates and pictures!

My worst-case scenario, upon getting back to Tokyo, was the find my little apartment overrun by hordes of cockroaches. However, I haven't seen a one (yet!) and does it ever pay off to clean before leaving! I got in yesterday a bit after 6, stopping at the combini along the way because I didn't think I'd find it in me to set foot outside again, and didn't do a blessed thing except shower, eat and read until 10, when I felt it very reasonable to get to bed.

Many things have I to write about, but I'll save the book and movie reviews for later. After all, I slept hardly a wink during my Chicago-Narita flight, which gave me time to watch 5 (five!) movies.

And now, ( hair! )

( luggage! )

( accomplishments! )

( new toys! )

I still have to unpack, then go to the bank, get some groceries and pay my electricity bill.
