Rainy but clearing later on.
An okay day. A bit slow and sleepy which can be nice! I got up on time and watched the news. I also drank a lot of coffee and then watched TV for a bit.
It was raining earlier on so I waited until it cleared up, then I went out in the later afternoon. I rode my new bike to the mall and had a good snoop. I didn't buy much. I even made it through the hundred yen shop without opening my wallet. Wow. I went to the coffee shop and had a very nice sandwich and a cappuccino. It was a little crowded in there, so I considered myself lucky to get a table to myself. I read a bit of The Amber Spyglass too. I'm about 70 pages from the end now. After I finished my coffee and couldn't think of a way to stay longer, I left. I checked out the grocery store's foreign section but didn't get anything, then on impulse looked in the bakery. They had bagels. Plain ones. Big ones! Being the nice person that I am, I bought two of them for me and hubby. They look really nice.
I came home and parked my bike. Fumihiko complained a bit about the bike last night saying it was heavy, and it really is. I can feel quite a difference between this one and my last one. It was lighter, but I never felt quite secure on it. This one I do feel secure, but I'm still not happy with it. There isn't much space between the seat and the base of the handlebars. If I was thin it probably wouldn't be a problem, but I'm not and it is. I also think I should raise the seat again because my legs just don't get any extension. I think I could get used to the bouncing, it was much better today!
I came in and did a bit of blogging. When Fumihiko came home we chatted for a while and then went out for dinner.
Tonight we went to Cocos. It was mostly good. I had spaghetti, Fumihiko had curry. We went to a grocery store afterwards but forgot to buy coffee creamers. Sigh. Tomorrow night's dinner will be yakiniku. We're going to have the last of the soup I think, plus the gyutan I brought in Sendai. It should be good.
We spent a mostly quiet evening at home. I say mostly because *SOMEONE* ate a Japanese snack that was very crunchy. I asked him to keep his mouth closed while he ate, but he couldn't, so I put headphones on and listened to music for a while! Oh, and speaking of music, I spent the evening on YouTube watching Andy Gibb videos! I've been having a discussion about Andy and the BeeGees with another blogger and wanted a bit of nostalgia. I found two cool versions of Andy and Olivia Newton-John doing "Rest Your Love on Me", a song that the BeeGees wrote. Andy was so darn cute, and compared to some of the rockers today, so clean cut! Yes he had long hair, but other than that looked pretty good. (Disclaimer...Andy Gibb was one of my early teen idols. I was deeply in love, so take what I say with a grain of salt.)
Anyway, I'm off now. Today was a good day. Tomorrow I'm back to work, but it should be fine. I'll chat at you soon! Night!
