Aug. 14th, 2008 05:32 pmToday I got up at 6:25 am, and then spent 4 hours in the airport, but didn't actually go anywhere. What was I doing, you ask? Having a short, but far overdue visit with my beautiful sister who had a layover on her way from Shanghai to Boston. It took much waiting and confusion and a $20 phone card (since I had my cell, but Em did not) but we finally met up. We just sat down next to the moving walkway and chatted, but it was great to catch up and actually be face to face.
On the way back, Cy called me right as I coincidentally was getting on the train, so I had lunch with her, and then went to Japantown, with the idea of doing some research for my current translation and buying the new issue of Glamorous with Namie on the cover. (I was successful at the latter, but not so much at the former.) I also bought some apple tea, which completely reminds me of my time at Bunkyo High, because I used to buy those paper cartons of Apple Tea to have with my obento all the time. On the train home I happened to be sitting next to some Germans. Listening to them made me think of Andith, and smile.
