Can you see me from above? Do you share my frozen memories?

I don't know what to say about today. I overslept. I stayed at work past 8pm as a result. I guess I got stuff done, but I could have done more. Not much to say about today in general though. Came home, people cancelled on us for bowling, so I talked to people on IRC about the B3 tournament, and ended up playing IIDX instead of doing more work (I brought home some stuff to read/write). I'm a little brain-fried lately.

Rather than talk about being blah, I think I will tell you all something useful! Uwajimaya currently has a sale on Giant Rainbow Pocky. It's not quite as cool as it sounds - not rainbow per stick, but you get a Pringles-can-sized can of 10 giant pocky sticks for $3. There's seven flavours. Chocolate, Strawberry, Orange, Blueberry, Apple, Custard, and Maccha (I may be forgetting one, but I don't think so). Chocolate and strawberry are common, and as good as expected. Orange and blueberry are HEAVENLY good. The apple is okay, the custard is blah. Maccha (green tea) just plain sucks, but that wasn't unexpected, I suppose. Anyway, in general this is way cool, I'd never seen pocky in most of those flavours before! It's neat! Go to Uwajimaya and get 'em now! Why aren't you out buying more tangerines????

I'm probably going to Kawaii gifts this weekend, and I hope that they have something similar to what you just described :D

I'm mostly curious about the orange, apple, and blueberry! I already didn't like green tea pocky. it was a good idea, but it tasted like perfume or something, if that makes sense......it tasted more like green tea perfume smelled than green tea tastes.

Dude, if you don't want the Matcha-flavored ones, you can send them to me. :)

An indication that you go to Uwajimaya too much: You find out stuff before the people that actually live there.

They would probably get squished in the mail unless I spent more on shipping them than they cost. :P Besides, have you had the maccha pocky before? They've had it at Tokyo Food Store in the past, I know that's where I first bought it (and ended up having to hunt down people to pawn it off on).

I bought some from Super Tokyo once. They were this kinda bizarre mix of matcha and white chocolate, but not bad.
