This whole Bobby Fisher thing is so ridiculous it is funny.
It was a chess game for Christ sakes!! He is not a murder, thief or a terrorist, he is a chess player and the greatest one alive at that!! The only thing that he has ever done wrong is speak his views. By that reasoning I should be on the most wanted list along with most of the Canadian population!!!
Bloody pathetic!!!

...

I measured the length of JiXiang last night and by my unofficial not exact calculations she has grown another 3 cm in not quite two weeks. This does not surprise me as she is eating TONS and her bottle consumption each time is 30ml over the books recommended dose for an 8week old and she is only 7 weeks!
It is stressing me out in the pumping area. I am doing better though. The seven hour sleep she gave me really helped. I needed the sleep to catch up. Unfortunately last night she slept only 4 hours straight.

Recycling has become a really big thing here at work. This is not a bad thing at all!! The problem is that there are tons of different garbage cans all labeled for different things and I can only understand half of the labels. Sometimes I ask, the rest of the time I guess.
The city is starting a new recycle campaign in April. Basically they are adding another garbage day.
Now it will be:
-Twice a week burnable garbage
-Once a week plastic garbage that contains this special label on it.
-Once a week wood garbage.
-Once every two weeks paper and cardboard garbage.
-But STILL only once a month for major recycling - cans, glass, tin and pop bottles
This once a month one is a real hassle!
Li was bitching the other day about it.- Dont these city people realize that Japanese houses are pathetically small!!!
I now have 4 different garbage cans on the balcony (one is for diapers), four different garbage cans in the kitchen, cardboard stuffed behind the book case and a bag hanging off the kitchen door for other paper garbage. Bloody hell!!
AND to make things really confusing, the water bottle and the cooking oil have to be recycled on totally different days even though they are made from the same type of damn plastic!!!
I am going to take silly pictures this weekend for you if the computer is working. The mouse died and Li screwed things up completely thinking he could fix it.

...
OHHHHH!!
It snowed this morning!!
Due to my shitty sleep last night I had to confirm this with one of the guys at work this morning and yes IT SNOWED for all of about 10 minutes and melted before it got below my balcony, but the point is that it snowed!
The strangest part was that there was not a single cloud in the sky when it did. It was air snow as it was sooooo DAMN cold this morning!
