Missing my son


Eating Contest © Copyright 2004 Mojoey

My son left for Japan in early August to be a teacher on the JET program and even through he has spent the last four years of his life at Berkeley; I still managed to see him quite often. Now two months have gone by and I miss him so. We have talked a few times, but there is no longer a jump in the car and go see him option. I really miss him.

This picture is from an ill-conceived eating contest held in July. My son is in the big cowboy hat at center screen. There was quite a crowd that night, but no real winner. I think everyone ended up tossing tacos that night.

On the upside, my family has a AoE tournament scheduled for tonight. I’m playing the Vikings and predict a horrible defeat for my team.
