I had already planned to stay home and rest. After getting up near noon, I did some laundry and made lunch, then spent most of the day loafing around. I had meant to look at some programming-related things, but did not get much done. I just hoped the weather would calm down by tomorrow so I would not have to go to work with an umbrella.

I headed to HDE on a typhoon day, found my way through Shibuya in the rain, and finished introductions and laptop setup after arriving soaked; lunch with coworkers and a view of Mount Fuji made my first day in a Japanese office feel both tense and fresh.
