It is 5:56 AM on Monday, May 8th. It is a little later than I’m used to for a blog post; the household is going to wake up in about thirty minutes so I don’t have too much time. The weekend went quickly. Friday was Cinco de Mayo but we stayed in and did nothing…… Continue reading Journal Entry – 5.8.2017

つみきのいえ (The House of Small Cubes) – ‘One Life’ and the brevity of life
Last night I saw the short film つみきのいえ, ‘The House of Small Cubes.’ It is of an old man whose village has flooded over may years and so he continually must build another level to his house to stay above water. In the middle of every cube is a trap door leading to the lower,…… Continue reading つみきのいえ (The House of Small Cubes) – ‘One Life’ and the brevity of life
Journal Entry – 5.4.2017
It is 5:42 AM on May 4th 2017. Life has been a blur recently and I haven’t had time to write a journal entry. This is the month where I turn 40. This significant birthday has been looming on the horizon for some time now and made me feel as though I had turned forty…… Continue reading Journal Entry – 5.4.2017
Estate sales
Last weekend I came across two estate sales and decided to have a look around. Estate sales are much better than garage sales: at garage sales people are usually just getting rid of junk, things that are not very useful but at estate sales everything is for sale as the owner has passed away. But…… Continue reading Estate sales
Journal Entry – 4.15.2017
It is 5:10 AM on Saturday morning, April 15th, 2017. I’ve had my shot of wheatgrass, meditated, put way the dishes, and still have time for a journal entry. Today is the first day of a different schedule. Saturday Japanese class starts today for my son so our normal Saturday routine of karate followed by…… Continue reading Journal Entry – 4.15.2017
Journal Entry – 4.6.2017
It is 6:01 AM on Thursday, April 6th, 2017. I’ve been awake since 3:30 AM; I stayed in bed until almost five trying to go back to sleep but then decided to get up and start the day. Today will be a busy one: I’ve got a travel fair in San Francisco in the middle…… Continue reading Journal Entry – 4.6.2017
Journal Entry 4.5.2017
It is 5:11 AM on Wednesday, April 4th, 2017. The past month or so has been a blur and I haven’t been in my routine of waking up early and thus haven’t written. My 40th birthday quickly approaches but I’ve felt like I’ve already hit it for a few months now for a couple of…… Continue reading Journal Entry 4.5.2017
Journal Entry – 3.18.2017
It is 6:45 AM on Saturday March 18th, 2017. The past two weeks have been busy and gotten me out of routine. On Sunday, March 5th there was the Fighter’s Cup which was definitely new for me and left me pretty sore for the next week. I’m really glad I did it and even happier…… Continue reading Journal Entry – 3.18.2017
