When the those morning train rides to work start to blend together...

Drinking a can of warm coffee from the vending machine to wake up, trying to find breathing space in a very crowded train, all the while echos of that old song echoing in my head.

Heigh-ho, heigh-ho, it's off to work we go

Looking up to grab a handle, while the caffine injection makes my vision start to blur. Not that a handle is all that necessary; when you are so packed into a human cattle car with people wedged on all sides of you, you can relax and rely on them to hold you up as the train bounces around.

Ah, just another morning in Japan.

It's off to work we go
