Posted on March 2, 2010 by baudattitude

Some things here that didn’t deserve a full post. Watched “Tokyo!” last night, which is a collection of three short films set in, well, Tokyo. The first of the three, titled “Interior Design”, was pretty good, though I thought it … Continue reading →

Japanophilia; reasons why

Posted on January 16, 2009 by baudattitude

I have not lost my way.

Ontamarama

Posted on July 25, 2008 by baudattitude
