If anyone has had me "ignoring" them on-line recently, it's not on purpose.  Since that earthquake in Taiwan on Boxing Day, internet connection has been painfully slow, almost non-existent, in China.  For example, thanks to my trusty MSN messenger (which I couldn't access for 2 days), I know that today I have 7 unread messages in my inbox.  Lord knows how long it will take to read them all.

 

I have managed, however, to somehow upload some new photos - check out my new folder, "Other Family Members".  Mostly my cute and cuddly (only with me) kitty.  Yeah, my 親バカ(oyabaka)-ness is showing.

 

Wishing everyone a very happy 2007!!
