I want to smell the leather





I didn't like the pair I bought from Zappos (the one in black). So now I'm thinking one of these. What'ya think?

It's official

This morning, my breath turned white for the first time this season. In the bus, I felt the heater was on. I wore my new knee-high boots. It's officially fall, everyone.

I want them both. Can I?




Because I (heart) Zappos.com, too!

As cranky as bad hummus

I bought hummus from Whole Foods yesterday. The expiration date was November 3rd. I opened it, dipped a baby carrot in it and ate it. It tasted sour. Something stung my tongue. I smelled it. Agh. It was bad. How could I know something that had been sold in Whole Foods yesterday was already bad?? I immediately sterilized my mouth with martini. It worked.

I've been cranky. I've been living and working in this country legally for years. I pay tax. I've contributed to US economy by buying lots of shoes. I have career and life here. I can't get a job in Japan. No one wants to hire a woman over 30 with experience in Japan. I'm a gender refugee. So why does this country refuse to give me a permission to stay a little longer? It's so unfair. I have to fight.
