Hi Mommy! I tried to call you last night, but you must`ve been busy. I am doing well. I got your comments on the blog...I keep forgetting to check it/post. I know I`m bad. Anyway, we are drawing near to the end of Japan, which is very sad. I just got used to this country! All the Japanese I learned will be useless (and by all I mean the 4 words I know). I am looking forward to some non-bland food and the ability to keep my shoes on inside. I`m also hoping for no more communal showers. I`ve definitely seen enough naked Asian ladies. I hope Taiwan has a similar subway system, because I feel like I`ve mastered Tokyo`s. Well, maybe not mastered...but I can find my way around. I got my nose pierced the other day. Don`t freak out. The place was very clean and nice and safe and the guy spoke wonderful English. He was actually Italian. Anyway, it looks adorable and barely hurts. I went to a baseball game last weekend and it was so fun! The stadium was huge and full of people. It was great, because I could be a loud, obnoxious American and not feel bad about it. We met up with Jeff Noetlich last weekend and hopefully we`ll see him again tonight. I don`t know if you remember Jeff, but he was in Heywire my freshmen year and then moved to Japan. He`s been showing us around, which is great because he speaks Japanese really well. He took us out shopping past a Krispy Kreme and the line was around the corner. The wait to get in was an hour and 20 minutes. It was so funny. When they buy them, they hold the bag out in front of them to show off their doughnuts. Well, I`m running out of time at this internet cafe. I miss you a lot and I`ll try to call you again! Love you!

Hi Kyle,
Thanks for writing to me on your blog. I feel so bad when I miss your calls. I was presenting at our international conference in Minneapolis and couldn't answer the phone. I had a woman from Katar in my session and she wants me to come there and certify some of her teachers in our program. Very cool! I might soon be an international presenter. I am glad that you are having a good time and staying safe. I was concerned about the protests I heard about in Japan over the shooting of the Japanese journalist in Myanmar. I hope that you did not have any contact with that unpleasantness. If you try to call me over the weekend I should be able to talk, unless you call on Sunday when I am traveling to Philadelphia. I will be back home on Tuesday night until Friday when Bill and I leave for Virginia for ten days. We are driving, though so I could talk on the phone. We are taking our bikes to ride some trails in the Shenandoah mountains and we're also planning a balloon ride over Monticello. It will be fun. I am missing you, my daughter. Love you! Mom
