I’ve deleted the name of this blog. This is something that I’ve wanted to do for some time now, perhaps a couple of years, even, the reason being simply that the ‘Japan’ of the title is restrictive—to say nothing of ‘Street’! As it happens, this site was hacked a couple of weeks ago; I took it offline for a little while to clean things up, and I took this as a sign that it was finally time to take care of the switch. Everything should be running fine now, I think.

In our post-Google Reader, post-RSS landscape, blogging doesn’t exist as a form anymore: who actually reads blogs these days? I certainly don’t. As I’m sure I’ve written before, though, I like having this space to track my own thoughts, cringe-worthy as I may find them later.

Things in LA are good; I hope you’re well. Thanks for reading.
