I left the house for the first time last night since Sunday and wrote “September 9, 2016” on a check today. But my parents are living it up in Japan – and since I have nothing in my own life to share with you today, I thought I would share their amazing pictures instead. Despite the fact that my dad doesn’t like fish or rice, they look like they’re having the best time. I’m told (by everyone) I have enough dogs, but I would really love it if they could bring me a monkey home…
