My Trick

In case anybody hasn't picked up on it, I'm writing the posts at home in Word, then coming to somewhere with a 'Net connection and posting them with the time I wrote them. Posting only takes a couple of minutes, while a good-sized blog post takes from a half hour to three hours to actually compose. For this post, I'm in a ramen shop, having ピリカラぎょうざ(~"spicy meat dumplings") and some plain white rice.

In a way, I'm paying for a 'Net connection. And food. That helps to take some of the ouch out of the $5 lunch I just ate.
