• 🏮 This week our neighborhood association held a festival on the elementary school grounds. Last year when we went it was a sneak peak into Leo's future school. This year it is the regular stomping grounds.
  
  We dressed in appropriate summer matsuri clothing, yukata and jinbei. As soon as we arrived we ran into some of Leo's school friends. We ate shaved ice, corn dogs, and yaki-soba. I also downed a couple of cold ones to help keep my hydrated on the muggy, windless summer night.
  
  My favorite memory of the night was Leo saying that he didn't want to dance in a line...but as soon as the music started, as if it's in his blood, he started dancing. True to his word, he did not dance in the line with everyone else.
• 🐻 I finished watching Season 3 of The Bear. No spoilers here, but I really do enjoy the show. I liked how this season they spent an episode zooming in on each of the main characters to really help develop them beyond what you see in the kitchen.
• 🏃‍♂️ I tied the most number of runs I've ever made in a year. Go me!
• 🚀 We learned that a dear friend and ex-colleague of my wife, Lorna Onizuka, passed away. We met in Houston when my wife was working at JAXA. The encouragement she gave and the inspiration she was...I'm grateful to have known her. She was such an important part of supporting the JAXA and the Japanese astronauts in Houston. Her impact cannot be understated and she will be missed.

I started looking through corrupt Winamp skins and it lead me down some very strange rabbit holes
