What am I, *stupid*? Of *course* I'm going to Japan. Right?

(I will miss the familiarity of my life. I will miss my loves. But I know
myself -- I would regret it forever if I said no. I'm going. Or so say I
in this moment.)

Hell yes!

Japan is really, really different. I've liked it the times I've been, enough to pay to go back next year even.

My $.02?
I think you should go.

pipe down, you're going already, even if i have to drag you to the airport. plus how are you going to get me the list of gifts I plan to demand if you don't go??

And besides, I'm still holding your record player hostage.

Of course you are.

If going to Japan is something you'd like to do, I think this sounds like a great opportunity. It is a long time to be away from home, but I'm betting it'll be totally worth it.

Yes! Get some nice pearls while you're over there. Very affordable.

Has anyone ever told you you're really cute?

Awesome! It's about two weeks, right? Sounds like a great opportunity and not terribly long.

If you don't have a passport, get one now. Mine took forever to arrive after I applied.

What a wonderful opportunity! If you want to, I think you should definitely go. *hugz*

Well, not recently (due to he fact that I shocked everyone by shaving off my rather heavy beard, which I am now growing back).

Thank you!

Yeah, well, here's a recent observation. LOL!

I don't know what this says about me, but when I first saw this (before your earlier post, because of the way LJ works), I assumed you were being offered at least three months (my initial guess was a year) in Japan to be concerned about being away from home that long. I definitely think you should take it.

It does seem like one of those, "Unique opportunity," thing.

And yeah, you'll miss your familiar life and your loves, but it's only for a little while, and think of the, "I'm back!" sex after!

You and [livejournal.com profile] someotherguy had the same thought; imagine that.

I had it too, for what it's worth.

What I need to say, though, is that from your writing tone in this post, if I hadn't already seen your previous post on the topic I'd have the impression that you were pondering a couple of years in Japan, rather than a couple of weeks. Are you a little bit ambivalent about this, or am I just being oversensitive to linguistic cues?

So, apart from missing home and your loves, can you think of any good reason to NOT accept this offer?

Of course! It's a great chance to experience something trily different. I'll be going to Tokyo for a week in September, and I'm really looking forward to it. So far I've really enjoyed my trips to Asia.
