Once upon a time in September Johnny went to Japan to do a thing with Vogue Nippon which I randomly remembered and so I went digging around for pics and was thrilled to find that I had them in pleasingly large sizes and so here we are.

A Little Bit of Summer for Your Winter
If you’re as heartily sick of snow and windchills and ice and more snow as I am, do join me in this lovely oasis and let’s not return until it’s at least spring which according to today’s Chicago forecast will be about six months from now . . .

Kayso actually I wasn’t even going to blog today because I’m still working on part 2 of the St. Petersburg series that was supposed to be posted next but when you’re presented with an overwhelming array of photos of a masked Johnny communicating mostly with his smiling eyes to adoring Japanese fans, you have to blog those.

So on this final day of 2014, a year which I personally have been ready to escort firmly to the door since about April, and thus I have spent the last eight months or so muttering as I wake every day to find yet more 2014 glaring balefully at me: “Oh. You’re still here...,” I am pleased to present the photos that I should have posted like three months ago but could never pull together since because 2014.

every night, to give the audience his very best.)

Yes, we have been awash for days in endless Snow King pics and vids coming out of Russia, about which we are of course not complaining at all except for the occasional deep sigh and long, melancholy gaze out the window as we contemplate the life choices that have brought us to this moment in which somehow we do not live in Russia and we apparently can’t have nice things where we live.
But then Johnny tweeted this over the weekend:
