BOOM, baby!
I've been browsing CNN.com's international edition every day just to make sure the world isn't ending without my knowledge while I'm over here. I'm not sure if what I read is reassuring or not. Every day... and I mean EVERY day... since I've started reading, the "major headline" spot has been held by a story titled "X Explosion/Assasin/Attack in Baghdad/Israel/Palestine kills X civillians/diplomats/soldiers." Please. Please. This is going to sound terribly naive, shallow and racist but why can't the middle east just fall into the black void of non-existence? Instead of making me care more, reading about all this violence is just making me hateful and cynical. I'm sick of it. Isn't enough enough already?

Oh, and in other website news, my Weather.com page for Tokyo's weather says that today has an expected high of 76 with Thunderstorms and wind... yet right now the posted forecast is 81 degrees (feels like 85) partly cloudy. And 74% humidity. UGH. Hey, HEY, MR. WEATHERMAN. I want my freaking Thunderstorms NOW!!!

Well, whatever, I'm off to see what freaky breakfast awaits me today. Bwahahahah!
