It's a shame that I have to interrupt my blog due to unavoidable circumstances. I'd just resumed it recently and it was much earlier than I expected to have a break.
I hope I will be back within a month.
I always procrastinate when I face with something problematic and being in extremely busy.
Actually, whenever I update the blog, I have important things to do.
Now I take a break to update the blog. I don't have time to read news articles today, so I indulge myself fantasising the absurd to escape from the trouble.
My regular daydream is my Desert Island Discs. Eight audio recordings. It's difficult to choose only eight.
Track one
Maurizio Pollini - Chopin Etude Op. 10 No. 1
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eIQuZwnBAa4
He was a prodigy.
Track two
Yellow Magic Orchestra - Solid State Survivor
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=koLF1BNcfIU
I realised this was a masterpiece when Gideon Coe aired.
Track three
Pink Floyd - See Emily Play
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2fYYhZ4v_90
I love Syd Barrett era, not later one.
Track four
Kraftwerk - Das Model
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OQIYEPe6DWY
I prefer German version.
Track five
Blur - This Is A Low
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8G6BpJziFVk
I love 90's. I love Britpop.
Track six
Claudio Abbado - Mahler Symphony No. 9 4th movement
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SY301g42vO8
I love any Mahler, but I prefer 9 and Abbado's.
Track seven
David Bowie – Space Oddity
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iYYRH4apXDo
Just brilliant, needless to say.
Track eight
Genesis - Supper's Ready
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QVyfj7-mHqs
Never bored. But only recordings Gabriel singing and playing flute.
Aww. British and Europeans...no Americans...but Japanese
I want to add links to the URL but I often cannot paste more than one links in goo blog.
I have to go back to work. I will stay up tonight, again.

I like hedonistic British. They are loud, but they looks happy.
I met them on an easyJet plane from London to Ibiza. They were too excited to start singing a song along with drinking beers.
I encountered them on an East Coast train from New Castle to Edinburgh. They drunk loads of booze on the train or maybe even before getting the train.

It's interesting that English Wiki doesn't mention about cigarette, but Japanese. It's first time to find the benefit of tobacco, apart from relaxing.
It's glad to know that "Caffeine appears protective with a greater decrease in risk". It's also good to know that Alcohol isn't bad for the disease in Japanese Wiki.

I didn't know Billy Connolly is also Parkinson's. I only knew Michael J. Fox but Parkinson's is not uncommon.
Hitler is listed in Japanese Wiki, but not English. Japanese Wiki is unreliable, but Adolf was teetotal and had character which was tend to be suffered Perkinson's.
It's awesome that Masa Saito is the only Japanese who is listed in English Wiki. Even a lot of notable Japanese are listed in Japanese Wiki!
I believe that Mino Monta is a smoker but it seems cigarette (and alcohol) didn't work for him. That's the shame.

Hello. I'm back. I've been too busy and too lazy to update the blog.
I've been busy at work and busy with socialising. Moreover, I've increased regular exercises more than the weekly workout with a personal trainer.
On the flip side of the busy days, I've been lazy at the same time. As a matter of fact, I'd started reading Japanese articles, I mean gossips.
I heard that Morinaga Takuro san had got cancer. I was surprised and I searched his articles in Japanese, because there were no English articles about him. I thought I only read articles about him, but having said that, I couldn't restrain myself from reading another articles in Japanese. I read some gossips such as Takarazuka. I had no idea about the theatre company but a neighbourhood girl had been preparing for the entrance exam very hard, so I had wanted to know about it. What is more, I'd even started reading a Manga serial Investor Z. I'd been looking forward to the twice a week serials. Eventually I realised that reading news and gossips in Japanese was waste of life. I stopped reading them, but Investor Z by Takai san and Morinaga san's Golden Radio YouTube. They are the exceptions. I'd like to know about investment. I can access to many financial articles in English, but I need explainers for NISA and Japanese tax exemption scheme.
I will be busier for upcoming Golden Week, but I'm going to continue the blog.
