Chris: Happy Turkey Day all you Americans out there.
Chris: I've got some good news and some bad news... The bad news is I'm not going to tell you the good news yet.
Chris: Lots on the go right now. I'm thinking of venting... but I can't right now.
Chris: Fair enough.
MMMBopBOY: Just check it out on YouTube then. Complete EP! I didnt buy it either, they rip people off on the shipping charges! I once bought 2 CDs, had to pay full separate shipping for each, and they refused to send the order until both items were available so they could ship them both together and save! *New album next May available in stores*
Robin: Hey, sorry for the cheeky ad on your page, but its for charity!! Am trying to draw as much attention to my charity site, with loads of amazing signed items up for auction. Come along and have a look :) Thanks Rx
Chris: OK, but do I have to buy it too? It's not that I don't doubt it's musical integrity I'm just short on cash right now. Maybe if people come to my art show I can afford to buy the album.
MMMBopBOY: Hey! Don't forget to check out the new Hanson EP, "Stand Up, Stand Up"... available now on their official website..!
Chris: Hey everybody.... chirp, chirp, chirp... Well I guess there aren't that many people around anymore. I'm ok with that... *tumbleweed*...Helloooo?
Chris: Better mood today.
Chris: Today I went from glee to grump.
Chris: I haven't visited any new washrooms lately. I have to make that a priority.
Chris: They're probably all grown up now, with lives of their own. We can safely say that we taught them a little something and made the world a better place.
Allison: I miss Melissa and Teresa. Do you think they've forgotten us?
Chris: In class right now and I can't pay attention. What should I do? I know I'll cause a scene, that should help me focus.
Chris: So tired right now.
Chris: Up late working on the Japanese Snack book. Allison's gonna be mad if I don't go to bed soon.
Chris: My allergies are horrible right now. Feel yucky.
Chris: Back to school and starting with a crazy busy schedual.
Chris: Last minute change of day plans... doh.
Chris: Hot and tired right at this minute, in 10 minutes who knows.
Chris: Hmmmm, not sure what to type here but I'm sick of reading about being back... sort of. I'm back 100% now and I'm heating some really old chilly on the stove... is that smoke I smell... gotta go.
Chris: I'm back... sort of.
Chris: I think this might be spam.
Prentice: Sorry. It's a dangerous business going out your front door.I am from Western and also now'm speaking English, give please true I wrote the following sentence: "If your debt has gotten out of control you need to seek credit counseling or even bankruptcy."Thank you so much for your future answers :D. Prentice.
Chris: Me too, and my head hurts still.
Allison: I'm sooooooooo tired!
Chris: True enough, since that last tag many things have in fact "happened" so I feel better.
Allison: We went to Disney Sea!!! That sure happened! It was super-duper-awesome-fun good times!
Chris: I need something to happen.
Chris: So you think I should sit in a room with strangers and read comics?.. That sounds interesting.
Brent: What to do next... Have you been to the Manga Kissa?
Chris: Japan is great so far, just wondering what to do next. Any suggestions?
Chris: Sorry about the vast number of pictures in the last blog, it just had to be done.
Chris: Due to popular demand (Allison) I will herby stop posting a million backdated blogs about my weekend adventures and instead just post them later in lighter doses.
Allison: Nooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Chris: Just had a great long weekend in Northern Japan. You'll know all about it when I backdate 37 blogs detailing every single minute.
Chris: Going to Akita this weekend. Don't know what I'll see but I know I'll see something cool.
Chris: Just relaxing at home right now. Waiting for housekeeping to call and come in and clean the place. It's so awkward to be here when they clean, I feel like a slob.
Chris: Gonna slow down the posts a bit. Allison thinks it's getting out of control. I think I agree.
Allison: oops. I guess you didn't get that email they sent us warning us they were bumping Rogers accountholders to Flickr "Regular". Hmmm.. perhaps you should be mad at me for not forwarding. :-(
Chris: I'm super pissed at Rogers and Flikr right now.
Chris: is sticking around the house today working on computer stuff and book stuff. Yup I'm in Japan and I'm wasting a day. I feel guilty.
Chris: I've just added more blogs to see instead of the last 10 blogs you'll now see the last 15. I do this because I've been updating like a mad man and I don't want anybody to miss out.
Chris: Just hanging out today working a few things as well as going to take my new lense our for a test drive.
Chris: Everything seems to be back up and running.
Chris: It appears the folks that run this blog site are having some technical issues so that means I have to slow down the updates for now. I have a bunch to do so when it's up and running again I'll be sure post them up.
Allison: Nope, not true. I readjusted the air conditioning in my office again to make it cooler. I was feeling rather hot and sweaty after the subway ride this morning. It was unbelievably hot in the station. That is all I have to report. Oh, and lunch was yummy.
Chris: She has lots to say, she's just shy.
Allison: I have nothing interesting to blog about. I'm at work. I figured out how to readjust the air conditioning in my office today. Just in time because it's been pretty cold in here and today I'm wearing a sleeveless blouse. Nothing fun like "limp" cars or blue monkeys in here. Sigh.
Chris: Fair enough, but I have to not only devise a plan, but also a truckload of courage.
