[ One month in

We are now 1 month into 2024. It hasn't really been a stellar year for Japan so
far. On new year's day Ishikawa Prefecture had that awful earthquake that they
are still trying to recover from. The very next day was that terrible accident
at Haneda Airport, and just this last weekend we had a decent sized earthquake
that rattled buildings all around Tokyo, Chiba and Yokohama. I have a really
bad feeling that this summer is going to be another miserable one.

My new year's resolution for 2024 is to not take things so seriously at work
anymore, and so far it's working well. I laugh off all the stupidity and
carelessness, and so far it's been relatively stress free. Knock on wood!

Take it easy out there.
