Hey Friends

Now 2026 and I decided to try and complete a couple of projects that I wanted to do for years. The first is to sort through and keep or delete all of the old information from my computer files. The second is to go through old pictures (the kind on film), and match them up with dates from information contained in these files. I was going to delete a lot of these files, such as emails, receipts, taxes, and checking account information, but then I realized this information would be invaluable for dating the pictures. In addition, my kids said they are really interested in my stories and other stuff from back in the day. Anyway, it was simply easier to put all of this information in one place, this blog, and then sort it all out after. The information is pretty boring for those of you who found this page....please read or ignore at your discretion.

Hi. I was thinking about doing this for quite some time. I am going to make my site really popular. I think that you might not agree with this decision but it is good business thinking. Many sites were doing the same and became really popular. Anyway, Google sucks. The search results are not good and I was doing research about this for many months. Now I am making a page to prove it then I am going to write an article and post on computer sites.

I am going to fight with Google and prove that their search results are not good. Check this secret page on the site.

http://sandiegocaliforniaonline.com/ranking.htm

The R is the position in the search results for the San Diego California online site for the search phrase.
If there is no number it means the site was not in the first 100 results.
The Total Results are the total number of results for the search phrase.

MSN really provides good results. Anyway, this should be fun.

I am gonna watch TV then maybe sleep. Really tired and there are many meetings and events this week. Talk to you again. Oyasumi nasai. I love you more.

Hi. I am thinking about you more and more. I want to see you now but I want you to think about a few things. We need to be realistic about the situation.

I want to make sure that everyone in your family knows about us before I set a date to come to Japan. If there is a problem then of course it would be better for you to come to America.

I really want to stay in America until August but I would come to Japan earlier if you really want. This is an important summer for the site and it would be much more effective marketing if I am in this country.

It might be difficult for me to work in your house during the summer because really hot and not much room.

I really want to stay at least until my roommates all leave and change rooms which will be in June.

I am also planning to purchase my friends car in July.

I really think it will be much easier for us to stay in America even from the beginning.
No rent payments
No problems with anyone about our relationship
Really easy every day

Anyway, I put our pictures on the site and then I can look at them from anywhere. Check it out.

Hi. I am really not happy about your decision. Anytime you change your mind and this was always a problem for our relationship. You told me a hundred percent you were quitting your job and coming next month. Now the company pushed you and you changed again. I am not angry but really disappointed. This time I am not going to push you.

The company you work for is not gonna be your career. They can hire anyone to do your job and if you stay at the job for another month then the company can use that time to train the new employee. Your loyalty should be to me and our relationship, not to the company. I am sure that when other employees want to quit, then they do it without thinking about the company. You are too weak anytime.

I am going to continue to plan our relationship but now I am going to work a lot and enjoy the summer. You should do the same. I am planning to come to Japan in a few months, unless you change your mind again. I do not agree with you coming for only a week. You need to learn to think about money and the future more.

I want to go back to chatting only on the weekends. Really I need to work in the morning and it is night in Japan and you are tired anytime. I love you. Talk again.

Howie

Akiko

Hi. I am not gonna ask you to change your thinking about your job. I want you to consider this though.

Anytime I am not first with you. Before it was your family and now your job. You promised to quit your job and then come to be with me and work on the site. You could not keep your promise. I makes me think that you cannot keep your thinking about marriage either. I told my friends that you were coming and I told them I thought you would change your mind and yappari you changed. No one can understand your thinking. Why do you need to stay at a futsu job and push away your future? Anyone can do your job. A months notice was more than enough for the company to hire and train someone new. Everyone else quits, why you cannot?

I really wanted us to work on the site and spend a fun summer together. I think you are still too young to accept marriage and a good relationship. Finally, after many years, I am normal and my situation is normal. I can really commit to you and get married but now you are changing again and messing this up. I am not gonna push you anymore.

If you really wanted to be together with me then you would not think about anything and come now. If you wanna try again then you contact me. If not then enjoy your job and your situation in Japan. Shoganai ne. I love you. Talk to you again.
