still no ticket
In answer to your comment Cindi, I:ve decided to actually post on my blog, something I haven:t done in quite a long time. (You can tell by the colon instead of apostrophe that I:m at work)
So, I still have not bought my ticket back to America because I:m still trying to figure out what exactly I will be doing from the time my contract ends and when I hope to be arriving in America. I have my last Taiko concert on July 30th so I will be sticking around Ato couch surfing (or more likely being treated like a queen knowing Japanese hospitality) for a week after I move out of my house. It is going to be a traumatic concert since my taiko group is basically my life here and it will be hard to say goodbye. From there, I:m going up to Hokkaido with a few Yamaguchians. Originally, the plan was to go up for a week or two, but as things progress it looks like only a few days. I was talking to my buddy Dave yesterday, (Hakkodate Dave) and he expressed interest in flying home together. I think it would be kind of fun to start and end this whole Japan thing at JFK together so I:m considering it, but he has lots of stuff to sell in Hokkaido so he doens:t want to leave in August until the 20s. Do I want to stick around that long? But on the other hand, what exactly am I running home to? Organize my storage room? Hopefully this post will encourage my mom to call me at a time I:m home so we can discuss :)
So nothing yet. The longer I wait, the more expensive my ticket gets, but I:m not too worried.

but you are not paying for your ticket home, so why do you care? Oh how I wish I could come to your concert, I wish I could see you play right out front. Please make sure someone is taping it just like Daddy used to do, with YOU right in the center!
No matter WHEN you come home, it will be a difficult transition for you, but if you come home while Anne and I are in Canada, August 6 - 14, you can have a little time to adjust without us (and have my bed. That might be a quiet, peaceful time for you, and you will have a car, no, a car (with PORT 2000) still on the back window, and a truck!...
mmmmm
Yes, you definately have to get someone to tape the final concert! I have already started on the storage room, so don't think you are doing it all.
I"m here in New Orleans, and feel like I"ve been detached from the world for a week. It's been lots of hard work, but good.
I think that waiting to travel home with Dave isa fun idea. To start and end it with the same person. You aren't running home to anything amazing. And I will stay away (but close enough) when you get home, so as to let you transition easier.
I love ya.
Anne
