All-nighter

May 21, 2005 – 1:16 am

Can’t remember the last time I pulled an all-nighter and actually went to work the next day, on about 1 & 1/2 hours of sleep and a hot, hot shower. Hmm, actually it may have been the last time I did a super fast takeover announcement, back at HSBC.

Luckily, this time wasn’t work. A childhoon friend of mine had come to Japan for a two week vacation with her husband, and we wound up sitting in a restaurant talking crap about people and personalities and why people act the way they do or find certains annoying or stressful. Such as my friend who had started researching half a year before her trip, packing two weeks before, and stressing out completely the night before, vs her husband who tossed everything into his bag in two hours and slept like a baby on the plane.

After the restaurant tossed us out a 1am, we bought some more sake and headed to their hotel, and before I realized it was getting light out. So me, in my brilliance, forgetting somehow that I was going to die because I’ve been working 17+ hours every day for like forever, suggesting we cab it over to Tsukiji and see the tuna auction (which I haven’t seen before, was always meaning to see, but could never imagine getting up at 4am and making my way over for), and then eat sushi at Sushi Dai. Stupid. Must’ve been the alcohol stripping me of common sense.

Well, to be honest, it was pretty cool, and I took my first pics with my cellphone camera. Man, tech is really amazing. I wish I could implement something where I could send mail from my mobile in and it would dump the pics and mail as an entry into this blog.

Check this out.

Anyway, to work.
