Hello, and welcome to stevethefish.net. No my name isn't Steve; my name is Greg. This page is focused on my hobbies and my life in general. If you are into photography, Japanese culture, science fiction and/or anime, then take a look around. You may learn who Steve the Fish really is.

Ulan Kate was born on May 5th, 2008. May 5th is Children's Day in Japan. She is extremely cute. Half of our time is spent taking care of the baby, and the other half of our time is teaching people how to pronounce her name. It's really not difficult at all. It's like that dumb Disney movie Mulan, but without the M of course. Everywhere we go, people stop us to tell us that she's the cutest baby they've ever seen.

This year has been fairly difficult for us so far. I've had two false starts with jobs and a lot of unemployment in between. At least I was able to ditch the stressful job as a waiter though. It was fun at times, but being a server took a lot of energy for an introvert like myself. I usually enjoyed it once I got up to speed, but it always put a strain on me to have to talk to people I don't know.

Mayu and Ulan visited the family in Japan for two months, enjoying the cherry blossoms and beautiful weather. In June I flew to Japan to meet up with them. I spent four nights in Tokyo and then met up with them in Nagano-ken. Then the three of us flew back together July 5th.

Returning to the blast furnace of July in Phoenix was not at all fun, so we spent the rest of that week in Sedona where it's beautiful and cool. It was a perfect vacation-after-a-vacation.

Another summer goes by and I have not been able to visit the San Diego Comic Con. At least I was able to attend the Phoenix Comic Con, and it did not let me down. I've ignored this in the past, but it has become a pretty decent venue. I've become a fan of Wil Wheaton as a result, and he has helped to put the PHXCC on the map.

Be sure to check out more videos on my Youtube. I posted plenty of videos of my time in Tokyo of some otaku shops, game centers, and random Japanese life.
