And by the way, happy 04.04.04, everyone. I certainly wasn’t awake at four minutes past four this morning for the real thing so I’m manually sending this entry back in time.
I hope you all cheated death. Four can be pronounced “shi” in Japanese which means death, so this is like three-death day (five if you got up early in the morning). Here’s to making it through.

A very appropriate comment on cheating death, given how I did not even bother getting up in spite of a nice, big earthquake…

Now I know why there is no Canon PowerShot G4! (I knew it had something to do with something meaning ‘death’ in an Asian language, and this should be it.)

040404 was my birthday as well. Never made the mental connection between “shi” and my birthday before now, d’oh!
