    Starting to feel like summer. Herbs are growing. Different clothes are making their way out of the closet.

    Took a proper day off today. Just made food, listened to some tech podcasts, and zoned out. Felt good. Holidays are always strange for me. I work for a place in the US but am physically in Japan. When I am off in the US, my friends here are working and vice-versa.

    I run into a lot of Japanese websites that use images instead of pure text. It really makes it difficult for people learning the language to look up words in the dictionary or use a translation app.

    Listening to a Weirdos album got me wanting a time machine to go back and see some 1970s punk shows.
