I never have.
When I was in Italy, though, I would eat two pieces of pizza smooshed topping-sides together like a pizza sandwich. That was goo-oo-ood!!

I'm feeling really nervous.
My trip to Japan is in March and I've arranged to speak with a Japanese woman via Skype to practice my Japanese. I haven't Skyped with a stranger before so I'm suddenly super nervous. I'm afraid it's going to be really awkward because my Japanese is wretched.

I think you'll have a lot of fun Strider. People love to share their languages.

I'm definitely a cold pizza fan as well. Reheats are never as good as the initial heating. And sometimes it's just good cold. And either red pepper flakes or Tabasco on top.

I'm boozing in the bathtub while catching up on Agent Carter.
It's pretty awesome.

Well, I just finished my Skype call. Operating in an unfamiliar language is definitely like being a fish out of water, or a fish floating in outer space in a tiny little fish astronaut suit. It was awkward, but the lady I was speaking with was extremely kind and pleasant so that dulled the sting of understanding next to nothing. We chatted (or rather she chatted to me

) for about two hours. We're supposed to talk again in a few days. I've got to get my stuff together before then!

Looking at news about a possible ferris wheel (I think shot down by the FAA) and observatory tower, similar, somewhat, to the Space Needle, being debated for our skyline. This "SkySpire" would have a restaurant at the top, and gondolas on the outside shaft to take you from the bottom to the top.
