April 21, 2002 - Sunday
Muggy, but no rain, at least so far!
Wow, what a couple of days. Last night the party was great and went until about 2:30
am. After Fumihiko and I went to the apartment. I was bored and channel surfing
and found an episode of Star Trek Voyager on. It was very old, and quite interesting.
Fumihiko was bored and went to bed, and I went too a few minutes later.
This morning we both slept in quite late. It was 11:30 before we got up and stayed
up. I played The Bouncer for a bit and then we went out to a restaurant. Unfortunately
the restaurant closed after lunch at 2:00 and we arrived at 2:02, so we decided to
come back later.
We drove around Sakata and went into a computer shop. I saw a couple of iMacs that
made me drool, but I didn't buy anything. Sigh. I want a new computer. I need a
new computer!
Then we went to Hard Off. I was hoping to pick up a new DVD or PlayStation 2 game,but
they didn't have a big selection. I did buy a jigsaw puzzle. That was cool. It's
in English, so I'm not sure how it ended up in Japan, but I'm not going to ask!
We headed off to the port to look at an observation tower but it closed 2 minutes
before we arrived. Today our timing just sucked! I also saw today's Japlish of the
Day...."Multi-Purpose Place". I have no idea what that means! It was an area near
the docks.
We drove back to the apartment and watched part of a movie, The Legend of 1900, then
went back to the French Restaurant. We got there a little late, but they were nice
enough to let us in. The food was wonderful and we plan to go there again. After
the chef took our money and asked me if I could speak French (having already established
that I was Canadian). I told him "Un petit, petit, petit peu."
After in the car I started to think about all of the things I could have said, but
didn't. Sigh.
We drove home, listening to The Partridge Family and me singing all the way. We're
negotiating bath and bed times now, but we'll likely hit the hay soon.
Fumihiko has a drinking party tomorrow night so I'm going to stay at the apartment
on Monday night. So, no update Boys and Girls. Sorry 'bout that! Night night.
