My bills are paid; my itinerary is complete; most of my packing is done; my classes are finished. It’s been a boring day. Never even went for a walk; it’s been threatening rain all day. Finally decided I had to get out, so I went to a workshop (?) at the Apple store about the new iMovie. Not something I really want to think about now.

Tomorrow I will water plants; run the dishwasher; do a very small load of laundry; get my hair cut. Then it’s just a matter of packing those last minute things. Beginning on Tuesday (I hope), I’ll be blogging at http://ruthek.wordpress.com/ Japan is 13 hours later than we are. I’ll arrive in Tokyo about 3 am, my time, and it will be 4 pm Monday.
