Derek's Gift

I was somewhat surprised when Derek told us last week that he got all of us gifts from Japan. I thought to myself, what kind of gift could Derek have possibly have gotten us? As it turns out, one glance at my gift and the connection was instantaneous. It was magical.


The Humping Dog, USB meets Love. I mean, just the name itself exudes awesomeness. Plus, it was a useable USB drive! I proceeded to take a look a the back of the package.

Although I am totally illiterate in Japanese (surprising I know), I did recognize some characters on the top right corner of the package. The characters zoomed in is below.

Essentially, what this translated to was that the item is aimed at people aged 15 and up. A gift with a age warning is obviously a perfect gift for me.

Fumbling around in a rush to open the package, I was eagerly anticipating the awesomeness of plugging it in. (That's what she said) And behold, when all was said and done, it did not disappoint.




Derek, thanks for the gift buddy. Can't imagine you staying in Japan for ANOTHER year but I guess it's happening since you are leaving on a flight, TODAY. Hopefully, over the next year, you'll decide to come back instead of staying in Japan for the long haul. Either way, I'll try to get out there and visit.

A side note, Eric wound up getting a robotic dog that danced to different music and JD got a mechanical beetle that knows to change direction, pretty sweet stuff.
