If it's Friday, I must be Tanuki?

Never thought of myself as a party animal, but there is a party in my imminent future. A bottle of Shirakami sake was acquired last night, as well as a 350 ML of the girly pink stuff, which turns out to be Hana Awaka, from Ozeki. It's the Kool Aid of sake.

My, what a....handsome tanuki. I really can't think of a better way to say it.

Enjoy your sake, lift a cup for me--I'm not supposed to drink anything interesting for the next few weeks.

First, you warned me about drinking the Kool-Ade... i mean the sake...

Second, that's a photo of my totem animal! I'm gonna have to save that picture :-0

Third, my head no longer feels like it's full of cement and i finally don't have a fever anymore. That Thai soup was the perfect breakfast. Thanks for dragging me out of the house yesterday.

Tan..., tan..., tanuki

OK, ear-worm time...

Check out the tanuki song on this page, as well as the photo of a genuine wild tanuki.

Tan..., tan..., tanuki, ...uki, ...uki

Grrr... i typoed in my entry and i can't delete it. Grrr...

That tanuki song is on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tanuki, as well as that photo of a genuine wild tanuki, although his testicles are hidden. Sigh.

I want a tanuki for my garden! A nice, traditional tanuki, not one of the modern PC ones. I'll put him by the potted citrus trees and he can peek out between the branches and scare away bad vibes floating over the fence from the neighbors' yard. Or, if he needs to, he can shape-shift himself into a chupacabras and bound over the fence and scare the crap out of them. That would be good.
