Okay, someone needs to explain to me that I cannot go buy the New Order album in Japan plus see them live in Barcelona.

(My problem is that I'm one of those tourists who need a goal, even if - especially if - it's an utterly spurious goal. Going somewhere with the stated purpose of relaxation is somehow unappealing, if not outright oxymoronic as travel itself isn't relaxing at all, compared to vegetating on one's couch. On a trip my short-term daily goal is always to take pictures or travel notes; overall goal needs to be something like visiting friends or family, or attending a convention, or - I haven't done this yet but see it as an inevitability - a music festival/concert. For that matter something like [livejournal.com profile] cis saying "you should hop over to London for a Club FT night" does just as well. It's a mental thing more than anything else. One of the reasons I love my flist so much is that it allows me potentially to traverse the globe on the back of a single excuse: meeting friends for dinner. XD)

Oh my gawd, London in September is a possibility for me as well, but I'm going to have to choose. NOT ENOUGH VACATION DAYS IN THE YEAR.

(I was thinking Japan but I suspect I can only get one week off by early April. >_> What to do.)

I have a lot of vacation days, I think. I should sit down and calculate how many I have, actually XD But harpy suggested September, since she will be in Japan for most of spring/summer. I also want to go on a bunch of trips to Chicago, Boston, DC and possibly Toronto. Is Montreal fun to visit? XD

A lot of vacation days. Hmph. Stingy with me, aren't you. XD

So, when's the NO album in Japan out? Is it out already? Should I be haunting Tower Records more?

Well, the only reason I'd want to visit Japan is cos j00 are there. Sounds silly, I know, but XD Mebbe if Japan had Girls Aloud and Club FT....XDXDXDXD I was an anglophile first, yanno. The Shoes series doesn't predate Voltron, but it left a longer impression on my consciousness XD
