BIZARRE!!!!
Just to illustrate how bizarre Japan can sometimes be. My boss and I were talking about text books and English books, and just then she pulls out a brand new children's book for the library called Unko something or rather. When I asked what it was, she explained to me in a manner of charades versus pictionary that unko meant poop. Yes, you guessed it, this book is about poop and it explains and shows the different layers of this child's poop based on what he ate that day. In my shock and horror I said that was gross, and she went on to explain that it happens to me and that it probably could be me in that book and her saying some of the things I ate. Yes, Japan despite the polite facade, can sometimes be down right strange.
