Another fine entry in a series of "the only good things left to read on LiveJournal!"
I like "had my tattoos out" as a metaphor. And also as tattoos.
Your experience with being questioned about why you were going to Kobe is funny and sad at the same time. It reminds me of how it seems like no matter what foreign country you visit in the world, when you tell the locals "oh, I cannot wait to [do this one thing!]" you so often get "why would you ever [do any of the things you are excited about?]" in response.
Of course, sometimes it would help to have good advice from locals, like when I thought Luton sounded like a fun place to visit.
