I like how you can walk down the street in Tokyo and see Tommy Lee Jones in a Coffee billboard. The whole Boss coffee campaign is great. Tommy plays a regular guy, sort of like a Japanese guy. But he's the man behind Boss. Does that make any sense? TLJ always plays a boss type of character, but he's juxtaposed as a foreigner in Japan. He sometimes sheds tears in the commercials.

That’s Nao with the special rice. I got some special rice too. Mine had crab. It’s strange how a typical “food court” can be so good in Tokyo. Fugu. I’ve never tried it and it’s supposedly great. If I can it together, I may try it. It’s cool how you can see the fugu when you’re walking down the street. I guess the fish do all the advertising for this shop.

People walk on them, bikes ride on them, and birds pick at them. I scored today. You're seeing the product of three different front yard's fruit. I...
Guess what? It’s guava season. See the haul? What I do is walk down the street and around the corner, and look on the ground, there’s guavas, down the street the other way, there’s two more homes and the trees shed fruit that sprawls on the sidewalk. People walk on them, bikes ride on them, and birds pick at them. I scored today. You’re seeing the product of three different front yard’s fruit. I don’t pick them from the trees at all, since that would be fucked up of me, but if they’re on the ground, it’s fair game. Notice how some have stripes and some are smooth. It’s weird how some trees give up bigger fruit, some more round, and some look like tops. I’m sure it’s probably the same breed of tree, but each acts differently. If you’re into guavas, then this is the time to hunt some down. Eat just the middles! Some guavas are red in the middle, but these stay light. This one organization does some mapping of fruit trees.

Yes, I have a few skills. I actually made this soup from scratch. I don't really know what I'm doing and I didn't want to buy anything, since I had some medium old veggies in the fridge, perhaps about to go bad, but who knows some are irradiated, and might last forever. I have no exact clue as to what I used, I just chopped a lot of vegetables, and sauteed them until the onions carmelized, then I...
