Holy cow, I haven't put a post up since November. No doubt most people think this thing is dead. Well, it is time to resurrect (once again), this time with big news.

It's official: On March 20th, 2007 Jason Corbett Hix and Keiko Fujita were lawfully wed at the Shibuya ward office in Tokyo Japan. We didn't have a ceremony and there was no justice of the peace, white dress & tux or honeymoon, but we signed our names and are legally married. We don't even have our rings yet but they will be welded to our fingers in just a couple weeks. Over a celebratory drink we took the liberty of drawing rings on each others fingers.

Neither of us wanted a ceremony. We wanted the day to be for ourselves but I have to admit that I wish Japan had a justice of the peace to do vows. in lieu of this absence we might do something small on our first anniversary when we are back in the US. None the less, I'm terribly excited, even though I'm not used to the title, about being a husband. No babies for right now but we're both anxious to begin a family when the time is right. While I'm not sure when I will legally change my name, it will eventually be Fujita-Hix so update your address books and decide which of these names you want me filed under.

Keiko's family threw us a wedding dinner at a beautiful restaurant here in Tokyo and her father sang a song in Japanese about letting go of his daughter and welcomed "Texas" (as he has nicknamed me) into the family.

That's all for now, I have to finish getting dinner before my wife gets home!
