Most important thing first: If you have been reading the comments from the kitty postings, I think we can all say that TuTu, the luckiest kitten around, has found a very loving home. Gosh, I still can't get over how perfectly this all worked out...except for the 48 hours while I was a nervous wreck wondering if I could hide the kitten with one of my cats and sneak her on the plane.
Second: I am leaving tomorrow. I continue to be a nervous wreck cuz my apt. is amazingly still full of stuff. Don't know where it all came from. Anyway, I'm off. Been waiting a very long time for this and can say with every cell of my body that this is the right thing to do. It's seems a dream that Dav and I will actually be together like a normal couple. No more relying on email and typing so much my thumb got numb.
Third: Tokyo Tidbits will continue! Details are yet to be worked out, but it sounds like several fabulous and insightful women living in Tokyo will collaborate on something using Tokyo Tidbits. Maybe guest bloggers will join too. So it'll keep a Tokyo/Woman perspective. I plan to continue my yapping in a linked but seperate blog. It'll take some time to get this all organized since Dav and I will be electronically unplugged until early September (yep, we're very much looking forward to a blissful week in the Nevada desert with Burning Man folk).
So it'll be quiet for a bit, but I promise to get back to you...let's say early September-ish...since I gotta settle in too and think how I wanna do all this.
Anyway, this has been a blast. Really. Had no idea and I just rode an amazing wave, eh? Something to tell my grandkids when they think I'm too ancient and
uncool. I do want to say that all this would have very little meaning without you, the reader, and your quirky, inspirational, and warm comments.
Thank you!
じゃあ、がんばりまーす。
Posted by Mie at August 20, 2003 11:26 AMCool about you passing your Tokyo blog on to new peeps. I look forward to seeing what they will be into. And I can't wait to see what you will dream up for the SF one! On everything goes...
If you can take a picture of you and Dav at BM, it would be interesting to see your outfits and abodes. Congrats Mie on kitten, moving, hooking up with your man, travel, everything!
I think I started reading your moblogging site probably mid-through after you got started. But it was a great experience to learn someone else's perspective regarding Tokyo. And for that I would like to say thank you very much. I look forward to the new input other people will have for TT and I also look forward to your new adventures in SF. Of course, congratulations on your decision to pursue a future with your bf. As you know best, take it to the next level and I wish you the best.
Doomo arigatoo gozaimasu! :)

Hope you have a good trip to SF. Enjoy Burning Man. We are all looking forward to new perspectives you will bring to SF.
Posted by: Chuck Swenson at August 21, 2003 01:35 AMI’ve been coming to/lurking your amazing Moblog for some time now. You inspired me to start up my photoblog (which is no way as good as yours!) Good luck for the future – Kind Wishes from England =)
Posted by: Nicole at August 21, 2003 02:31 AMGood luck Mie. Look forward to seeing your perspective on SF, and to see what MJ and the other ladies do with Tidbits. Yours was one of the sites that got me interested in this whole blogging thing, although I still cannot bring myself to blog from my keitai!
お疲れ様でした。
