Hot and muggy, bits of rain.
The biggest excitement of the evening was the earthquake. It happened at 12:26, so technically July 24th, but before my sleep. It was a level 4 here in Shonai, and seemed to last for a really long time. We're fine, and it doesn't seem to have done any damage here. In Iwate, where it seemed to be centered, it was a level 6 plus. I haven't heard about injuries or anything yet.
Today was an oddball day. Fumihiko didn't work today, but did some things over at city hall. He spent quite a lot of the day out of the house.
He came back to the apartment around 4. I made myself an omelette (I did offer to make one for him too) and then ate it. He made himself ramen, then took himself off to bed for a while.
I left for my school around 5. I got there in good time and got busy. I had a lot to do. I dusted, even getting the top of one of the cabinets that I am too short to reach. Then, I vacuumed. After all that, I got dressed and made sure that my school was presentable. When I had finished, I got out my receipts and did up my June book-keeping. Hurray for me!
Fumihiko phoned me to ask where I was, then came over. He brought "gifts." He brought some ice treats, some drinks and stuff that I really didn't think I needed! Still, it was a nice gesture so I tried to be thankful about it. However, he hadn't shaved and was wearing jeans. I really wasn't too happy. I made him take everything out of his breast pocket so he looked a little more presentable.
The visitors came on time and things went quite well. It looks like I'll have a new student starting later this week. I'm not sure yet whether she'll be short term or long term, but it's quite nice for me.
Afterwards, Fumihiko and I had a big hug and then relaxed a bit. We had a drink in the school, and I tidied up. We went off to have dinner at M's Dining. We both had the same thing, beef fajitas. They were nice. We came home via the grocery store to buy milk.
At home, we decided to watch a movie, so Fumihiko made me some of the microwave popcorn that we bought a couple of weeks ago, and we settled in on the couch to watch Ghostbusters. Fumihiko had just reached in for a snuggle when I noticed that the room was moving, it wasn't just the movie.
And that's about it. I'm watching the updates on the TV but I can't really understand them. They seem to be saying the same things over and over again.
So, I'm off now. Hopefully tomorrow will be a little more stable and the apartment won't shake all over the place! Got to go. Night night.
