Did you ever play the Infocom game Bureaucracy, written by Douglas Adams? (Ooh, am I ever dating myself. I used to play Infocom games on an Apple IIe.) Sometimes your life in Japan sounds frighteningly reminiscent of that game.
I never did finish the game, because I couldn't figure out how to feed the llama in order to get my mail.
Glad you got your visa and are off to China soon!! I just hope my SD comes before you have to leave. (It's been disgustingly late recently... twice I haven't gotten it until the very end of the month. The lateness seems to be directly proportional to how much I'm looking forward to the next chapter of G-Defend.)
