Visible from the heights..

I usually don’t put much faith into web petitions, but in this case I think it is worthy. So instead of spamming your inboxs with this, you can follow it here:

Take a moment, sign your name and think about helping.. just takes 2 minutes.

Well it was a short trip, too short for the flight time, but just enough to provide some culture shock that I knew I would have, well a head of time, and let me get really home sick.

Sorry to all those I didn’t get to see. It is difficult to come in on Wednesday and leave on the following Tuesday and squeeze you all in. And thanks to those that were able to squeeze in some time at the last minute.

Some highlights: Chuis! .. Hot Chix in Yoga .. fat chicks everywhere else (not quite a highlight!) .. Buying clothes that actually fit me. ( I had forgotten what pants that don’t fall off when you take your belt off, feel like!)  4$ red bull and vodkas.. Suprising the hell out of the 3rivers folks at a mexican restaurant after a seminar.. Spending time with my folks .. actualizing and the cessation of a major issue that has plagued me for about a year.

Lows: Hearing amazing stories about my past that never occured.. TSA.. flirting fat chix at bars.. a$$h4t yuppie kids at the galleria that think they are bad asses, even as they run away ( I blame you urban outfitters…) My favorite pizza place in Clayton being run into by a car and being closed while I was visiting! grrr..

That’s about it. Like I said the trip was too short. But with my plans to return on or  after the new year, it was a nice escape from Tokyo. Now I am just waiting for my lady to get back from thailand so I can tell her how much better a trip to thailand would have been, sorry folks but beach and jungle VS stlouis.. you do the math. ( And hopefully I will get some yummi thai fruits..)
