Since I've gotten some good advice from Danny, let me say this: Be careful of trying to do to much at once. It's tempting having so many things to choose from to explore but it can get very easy to lose your way and forget who you are and what things...
LMAO at the sushi comment as I just did the same thing in Detroit! I've also just arrived in Tokyo and will be hitting AKIBA in a few hours. I hope Danny will be making an appearance soon so I can "Dan The Man" LOL
I really feel it when Danny talks about his rough childhood. Makes me remember my own and wonder how I survived. Like Danny, life's a lot better now and I even got to visit Japan(4th trip in 2 weeks!). I think my next step is learning enough Japanese...
