I came into some cash today, enough to pay some bills and get a bit left over. So, I headed out to my favorite bar, to chat with my favorite bartender and have her mix my favorite vodka martini. Or two.

Also chatted with some locals, generally had a good time. I have a meeting in the morning, and in the meantime, I'm feeling the effects a bit and enjoying life.

I do that at the local izakaya and ramen shops near my place. Go in, build up a rep as a respectable customer, bring my friends around and in general create business. Makes for good relations. Building friendships or even customer-owner relations takes time and patience in Japan. They are not extroverts like Americans (myself included). It's a challenge and fun. After a while, they come to know me, what I like, and speak openly with me, sometimes providing me with small services I wouldn't get as a "local".

Take care,
