Halloween KitKat



This one is for my friend the "goddess"

My wife knows how much I love KitKat's . So, this evening after the misses got home. She handed me a "Halloween" KitKat.
That was really cool since my favorite holiday is Halloween.

It didn't quite taste the same as the regular(of course) however, it had a strange yet satisfying taste.

Just got me an ipod touch. Yippee!!!



Well, I broke down today and bought the new ipod touch.

Let me tell you. . . It was money definately well spent. That thing is amazing compared to my last one.
The browser and WiFi works great. Fairly fast as well. Video quality is superb and sound is great.
I first wanted to get the iphone when it comes out here however, I have a fairly decent phone and no need to trade it in. I am glad that I decided to get this rather than the iphone.
The only downfall that I can see so far is the lack of ability to edit your calander. You can sync your calander events however, you can not edit them on the run. The other downside is that it doesn't have the mail function as the iphone does. You can however, just check your mail on line. It would be nice to have my mail pushed to my ipod however, checking online works just as well.

Anyway, if you are in need of a new ipod, I highly recommend it.

Sorry for the poor pics, I didn't feel like breaking out the big camera.

This stuff is worse than drugs. . .


Chocolate. . .

To be precise, Willy Wonka's chocolate. All I can say is WOW, This is amazingly delicious chocolate. I am hooked.

So far, the only place that I have found that has it for sale is Tokyu Hands and it runs around 5 or 600yen. I was at the one in Shinjuku, in the halloween section. Shortly after you get off of the esclator, you will see a display swarming with a herd of japanese people watching this movie on a small screen tv on the display. Once you break through the croud a finally reach the display, be sure that you grab more that one bar. Beleive me, you can't just stop with one!!
That is, I assume, why they have a Wonka bus set.

Toys-R-Us Rocks!!



After all of the hustle and bustle at the house for the birthday surprise, we went to the Toys-R-Us in Fuchu. We decided to go ahead and get Aya's birthday present. No it wasn't the car. We got her a slide set. Will post pics of it soon.

Birthday wishes




Today was Keiko's(my beautiful wife) birthday. I spent 2hrs sneaking around the house the night before setting up the decorations. It was fun though.
On her birthday we decided to go shopping for Aya(my daughter).
We had a really great day. Oh yeah, the cake was superb!!!

A day in Kichijoji





Recently took off for a day in Kichijoji. We stopped off at little place that I have been wanting to try for 4yrs now, I just didn't seem that waiting in line was my thing. This place has a line of at least a 15-20min wait all day and everyday. I finally broke down to try it. I'll tell ya though, it's not all that it is cracked up to be. It is meerly ok if you ask me.
The name of the place is Satou. They are famous for their Menchi-katsu(ground beef, breadded and fried).
Here are a couple of pics and my daughter taking a look at the menu.
