Yeah, Japan was amazing! I was really hoping I'd have the blog up and running by now so I'd have something to share, but it's been a struggle since I got back. It's been nothing too terrible, just too many life changes happening at once for my body to handle in stride.
My goal is to get a gallery of pictures properly edited so I can share some before Christmas. Trying to learn a ton bunch of Adobe programs I'd never touched before with an exhausted, ADHD-riddled brain has been a Sisyphean task thus far.
In Japan I didn't wind up making it any further south than Osaka, but I definitely will be back. Sapporo Snow Festival and Southern Japan are near the top of my to-see list.
Cool. Post 'em up when you get the chance to ready them. I love checking out cool pictures from peoples travels. I have tons of cool pictures from Honduras, well, I think they are cool for those who never experienced turd world countries it is quite a shock to see how people live outside of the states. Actually, most of the world outside of the states and some modern countries in europe etc etc are shit holes.
Adobe (photoshop for me) is a bitch to learn, so many freaking menu's and effects to use and stuff to tinker with. I feel your pain there heh.
You like living in LA? Seems like such an expensive dump to live in... unless you are super wealthy that is where you can just ignore the problems and live it up. I have a good friend who I was in the service with, whos is always inviting me to come to San Jose and stay indefinitely, which I'm sort of tempted to, maybe get a high paying job at one of the tech places, but I figure it would be too rough, landing 100k there is like probably equal to making a measly 30k here in pa.
I even turned down a federal job in DC that paid 60k because it kind of wasn't enough to get a house, move the family into a NICE part of town, deal with the traffic, etc etc... 60k in pa is golden and in DC I would be basically barely above the squalor line.
Anywhere in your travels you would want to live... I mean that were nice enough and decent enough for an american to relocate to?
