A typical day outside of Tokyo

…Charlize Theron is doing a commercial for bodywash here in Japan. Mmmmmmm……yummy… (her…not the body wash…I’m pretty sure that’ll taste like fragrant soap).

Oh, and if there is one thing I like, it’s the soundtrack they use for Japanese TV. Depending on the scene, I’ve heard in the past hour, Sabbath, Faith No More, video game soundtracks (from Tekken, Final Fantasy, and others), and movie soundtracks like Resident Evil and such (yes…I recognized the Resident Evil theme…). I wonder if copyright laws are a tad different here or US TV just doesn’t bother getting rights and will make their own.

But anyway, yes, this is late…but I was dead tired last night. I actually fell asleep before 10pm last night. Ugh. Still tired today too, especially after the morning meeting combined with a 2 hour presentation/Q&A this afternoon. I knew I was beat when my eyelids were getting heavy with just one medium glass of beer with my yaki udon (pan fried udon noodles, this one combined with squid and cod roe) that I had on the way home. Yow.

However, I decided to beat my sleepiness and update :) I know you will all thank me. It’s ok. I do it all for you, my readers. All…what…like what…5 of you? Heh heh heh.
