Just a thought...

Just a thought....

"Looking up Japan on Google Earth again?" Judas, the bag of chips asked.

Just wishing I was going.  Oh well.

"What's so great about Japan, anyway?" Judas, the bag of chips, wondered. 

I was young, about twelve, when I first watched Akira.  It was just the beginning of my fascination with Anime and Japan.  There was a show, KOR, that made me really wonder what the culture was like over there.  And then we learned a little history in school... and it escalated.  Now, I want to go there and drink Tea.  I want to see the castles... and I just want to be there.

I suppose, liek everything else, the grass is always greener on the other side.  I've been known to jump proverbial lawns to get that greener lawn, and found it's just as brown as the old one was.  Maybe it's better not to go so I can keep the idea in my head that it would be amazing.

"You know, I wouldn't give up just yet," Judas, TBOC, offered.  "Hey, so you doing a reading soon?"

I think so.  I just got an email from this little place in town that would love to have me.  He sent me three dates, so I guess I should pick one.  I'll have to look at a calendar. 

"Can I come along?" Judas, TBOC, asked.

"Sure," I said.  At least I'll have one person there.  I wonder who would come out on a Tuesday evening?  Or anytime, for that fact. 

"Hey, by the way, I think your Imp pissed your turtle off," Judas, TBOC, said.

I looked over and there he is, the turtle, looking at the water from atop his rock.  I asked what had happened.

"The imp was trying to rodeo ride your turtle."
