Hey Everyone

[claymander]

First, I'm writing to let you know that I've re-contracted with JET, so I'll be here until August 2009. Which gives all of you more of a chance to visit me! You can join the proud ranks of one particularly awesome person ^_

I thought story was kind of fucking adorable. Your reaction made me seriously lol in a kind of embarrassingly noisy way.

OMFG I can't believe you're going to be there until August '09. Enjoyyy!

P.S. I think "Spring came. Freddie, the leaf, was born on a branch of a tall tree." should be counted among the ranks of the finest opening lines in literature, akin to "It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife" or "Lolita, light of my life, fire of my loins."

Why do I imagine Andy Bernstein getting really excited about this?

Yay, maybe I'll be able to make enough money to go and visit!

Wow. That was such a very Japanese attitude. The only western author that I know of who presents that companionability of death in a way that approximates the Japanese style is George MacDonald.

Connie told me you had decided to stay on another year. Good to know.
