And then I thought to myself; "Why is it rude to eat and walk at the same time?"

HOW TO MAKE A GRAPEFRUIT SOUR: Step 1: Get the booze and half a grapefruit and juicer from the waiter and press down.
Step 2: Press REALLY REALLY hard and ask for help if injury seems likely.
Step 3: Pour the juice in the booze and ask for a towl to wipe the sweat off your brow.
Some cultural rules amaze me...this being one of them: In Japan it is rude to eat/drink and walk at the same time? Why you ask? For this question I have no definite answer. Probably for the same reason it is rude to blow your nose in public, or why some Japanese girls walk with their feet turned in. I am guilty of only breaking one f these, and if you know my love of coffee and food you know which one it is.

Lately I have been getting nervous about my job here ending so quickly! Where did the time go? I have 20 days leaft!!! I gotta get better about updating this thing...
