    A while back I posted about Bondi Books in Kichijoji moving to a new larger location, and seems like the new store (just around the corner from the old one) is set to open this Saturday. More info on their blog.

  • More on PauseTalk

    A few updates regarding PauseTalk (see previous post for more). I’m thinking the first one would happen Monday, June 5. After that, it would continue on the first Monday of every month. I’m looking at a start time of 19:30. I think that’s late enough for most people to finish work and get something to…
