So I watched this interesting documentary today. I like the idea of Electric Cars. I think they suit the needs of maybe 80% of the commuters in America today. I’m really surprised that they were shut down so fiercly by the automotive and oil industry.

Anyway, it is an interesting documentary, and well worth the rental.

It has been a long time since I’ve had some time to relax, so I also went to Jiyugaoka to do some shopping (my little sister’s birthday is coming up) and I spent some time at Starbucks reading “Keritai Senaka”. Since I quit drinking coffee I just haven’t been sitting down to read, which is a shame. I’m going to try to put in some time reading that book. When I’m done with it, I think I’ll try to take on one of Murakami Haruki’s earlier works in Japanese. It is, if nothing else, good practice and a humbling experience.
