some days....

Tokyo, 2007.11.16

Recently, I was heading into the office for my 'normal' 09:00 (I fairly regularly start at 07:30 as well) and there was the usual crowd hanging around having a smoke.

There was also one guy with the usual suit and briefcase vigorously chugging down a beer. I guess some days are just worse than others.

There's also a young fellow who seems to have taken up residence in the unadorned brick plaza between the different office and commercial buildings in the complex where I work. This morning he was lying on the cold bricks, soaking up some sun.

Harumi seems like a long way from anywhere you'd want to try to survive on the streets, but what the hell do I know.

rand()m quote

One day you will take a fork in the road, and you're going to have to make a decision about which direction you want to go. If you go one way, you can be somebody. You will have to make compromises and you will have to turn your back on your friends. But you will be a member of the club and you will get promoted and get good assignments. Or you can go the other way and you can do something [...] for yourself. If you decide to do something, you may not get promoted and get good assignments and you certainly will not be a favorite of your superiors. But you won't have to compromise yourself. To be somebody or to do something. In life there is often a roll call. That's when you have to make a decision. To be or to do.
-John Boyd, US Air Force
