Manga!

Going away makes people want to feed you. I've had 3 lunch/dinner dates in the last two days. I'm not complaining because I've wanted to visit my favorite restaurants before taking off, but I'm stuffed silly. I'm also slightly worried about the combination of various curries and garlic sauce as I'll be spending somewhere near 22 hours in transit. Me thinks the plane bathroom and I will have several quite unfortunate meetings...

People keep asking me if I'm getting nervous and until 5:45pm today I could quite honestly answer "No, I'm not." But as I sped towards that final dinner date, I realized that all the hugging and well-wishing was set to end tommorow when my family leaves me at the airport. Luckily, until now, my time has been filled with endless mundane tasks and (happily) "one last time" visits, but now this is it. I'm packed, I'm double-checked, paperwork has been signed and I'm leaving. I'm still super-pumped of course, but I have a feeling tommorow will be filled with many tiny steps (ex: 9-9:30 am Breakfast, 9:30-10 am Shower, etc) in order to stave off the big scary that can be hanging out in an airport trying to keep yourself awake until 4 am when you can board your plane. A little at a time and before I know it I'll be in Taiwan, checked into the hotel, sleeping cozily, and getting ready to have my mind blown.

Rob, I'm seeing your comment a little late, but while on the subject porn is hard to come by. They really only have softcore, but it's plenty easy to find. For the hardcore business most people just do what the Americans do...ahhh, the internet!
