Singapore Sling

We’ve been airborne for maybe an hour. Hangin in the front row of economy. They still give free drinks and little care packages with a toothbrush and a microminiature tube of toothpaste. Took enough seroquel to allow me to sleep at the drop of a hat. 250mg in case you want to play along at home.

I guess I will try to eat some lunch and drink a Singapore Sling:
created in 1915. dry gin, Dom Benedictine?, Cointreau and cherry brandy shaken with lime and pineapple juices and a dash of angostura bitters and grenadine. I’m not sure you can make a stranger cocktail based around gin… questions: just how girly a drink is this and how many mini umbrellas will it have?

Yeah. So I hope to upload this once I have wifi. Wondering if I should have lugged Mason & Dixon (the book) with me. I wanted to leave space for vintage Japanese electronics and mechanical pencils though.

ok time to eat.

Attempt to log my trip to Japan

I’m waiting in a cab to go to LAX. Flying from there to Japan. Hoping to catalogue this journey in full multimedia and may or may not distribute it on CD-ROM at a later date. I am quite sure that my main interactions with Japan, outside of knowing awesome Japanese people, have been through video games. Also, big fan of ninjas. This is the prototypical boring blog post before something exciting happens that I won’t write about.

oh and there will be photos.
