After a surprisingly punk week, I took the Friday to do some much cleaning in my apartment. While moving stuff around in my room, I found a incense set that I bought ages ago (perhaps when I still lived in the other apartment? I don’t quite remember). A set of aromatic candles, an oil holder, and some sandalwood oil. After finishing cleaning, I decided to try to use them – the sandalwood oil gives off some wonderful aromas when burning, and the oil holder looks really lovely when the candle under it is on.

I don’t know why I forgot about those for so long. I have this memory of trying to use this oil holder, to very catastrophic results, but I can’t remember right now what went wrong about it… If you don’t hear from me in a day or two, it is because I managed to burn my house down ;-).

The thing about aromas, the guard who stays at the Yaoi gate at Tokyo University always uses this absolutely wonderful incense in his work place. Now that I have found my incense burning stuff, I might go and ask him what it is. And just to end this post on a geek note, sandal wood will always remind me of the sandalwood box, one of the items from Lord British which is needed to finish Ultima V :-P (The only Ultima I have never finished).

PS: Tomorrow is a Geocacher’s meeting in Tokyo (or, more accurately, in the Showa Memorial Park). The price is a bit expensive, but I’m really curious about meeting many people I only knew from usernames and log book signatures!
