trains are tiring

Wow I'm tired. It's unbelievable how tired one can get after taking the train for 2 hours and then walking 15 minutes, and then having a 90 minute job interview, which includes a 5-minute video demonstration and Japanese introduction! Thankfully I opted for the more expensive (much more expensive!!) option of taking the bullet train back home, so I cut the commute time from 2 hours to 45 minutes. Gotta love the Shinkansen!! But the whole day's worth of train rides cost me about $60.00 round trip! What an expensive job interview. Plus I was hungry because all I ate for lunch was a small egg salad sandwich from the train station convenience store and some chocolate.

oh and something funny. My bullet train was number 666, and I rode in car number 6. And 6 has always been my favorite lucky number. good sign? I hope so!

But I'm home now, tired and dizzy, and ready for some wine and maybe an episode of White Collar... if I can stay awake.

more on the job interview and other stuff later...
