bought a fuji x70

Bought a Fuji X70 (camera) with Mark today at Fujiya in Nakano.

I had never heard of the shop but apparently it's a camera cult classic for used camera gear.

He found a Fuji X70 there for 44500 yen, with just some minor scrapes.

This was after coming across a Fuji X70 for 56000 yen at MapCamera in Shinjuku. The higher priced one was quite dinged up, so the less expensive one was nearly a no-brainer.

We had started looking for a Ricoh GR2, but chose the Fuji X70 did its movable screen.

With the 12000 yen Mark saved me by knowing where to go, I bought us curry at Milan. Great food and conversation!

filing taxes today

Last year I had to wait until July to file. This year they got the shit sorted. I arrived today unannounced and just had to wait 15 minutes before they let me in to this maze of corridors created with standing partitions and plastic sheeting hanging above.

No one else in the few chairs near me, but plenty of voices around; I can hear about three or four conversations happening, including someone on a phone call.

Now standing at a table, ready for my supportive volunteer tax person.

Headed home to sort my expenses by categories.

Back with my computer and expenses sorted by category. Also good to have my computer to calculate how much I can claim for my computer.

Headed back home again to get my medical receipts but apparently I threw them away. Came back empty handed but quickly finished my tax filing in Japan. Yay!
