Well, this was certainly an interesting weekend. I got together with Greg Sunday night and we had a great time kickin it over at his place. I stayed the night there since we called it a night way past last train, and in the morning, while so very, very hungover, we wandered out to look for a place to eat breakfast.

Let me explain something to you all, so you can understand a little better what it is I mean when I say there was nothing. In Japan, there is no Brails’. There are no Dennys. No Sharis, no IHOP no Origanal Pancake House, no Pig N’ Pancake, no nothing. Breakfast, as we know it, hashbrowns, toast, pancakes, two eggs over medium and maybe even two strips of bacon, with a cup of coffee or orange juice and a tall, tall glass of water, that breakfast, doesn’t exist here. You know what does? If you do, you’re better off than I. The Japanese rock rice, sometimes a little miso, the occasional egg salad or tuna sandwich for breakfast, from what I understand.

So when you wake up at 8:30am because your drunk sleep is over, and there’s nothing you could possibly do to hope to get any more rest, and you wander out into Kita-Matsudo at 10am looking for something to eat which is in any way appetizing, let me tell you, you’re SOL.

The rest of yesterday and today wasn’t that interesting, aside from laundry and my ongoing attempts to use wireless networking devices for the forces of evil, not good, to little avail. I have to return the second of such devices to Bic Camera sometime tomorrow, after Kids Training.

Oh, yea, I have Kids training tomorrow, after which I imagine I will never leave my branch again. From here on in it’s me jumping and singing and playing with kids for at least half of every shift. Woooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!
