Wii Mania

Well, being unemployed you’d think I’d have lots of time to update the site, but I was a little busy this weekend. I should be a little less busy this week, though. I’ll try to update a little more.

Friday night Yasu came over after a concert that he saw in Tarumi, and so we played Wii and talked and drank into the night. He finally left around two in the morning and headed home.

That left me a little tired out on Saturday morning, but I still got up reasonably early and headed into Suma to meet Antoine. He was looking for a chance to go hiking, so we climbed up Suma mountain together and then looped back around into town.

On the hike we chatted and wandered through the forest following the kanji on the signs so that we wouldn’t get lost. Antoine was apparently going through another rough spot in his relationship, so we talked through that and also talked about his new job coming up next term.

In Suma we caught a late lunch at a donburi place, and then decided that because of threatening weather it was better to head back to my place and relax instead of trying another mountain.

We came back to Okubo and spent the afternoon playing Wii and watching a movie (Best in Show), and in the evening went to the local yakitori that I like. The guy remembered me despite my not going there for almost six months. We ate big and drank lots of beer, and still got out of there cheaply. The highlight of the meal was fried corn on the cob pieces – they were in another yakitori league.

Charged up with beer and food we came back and played some more Wii. I let Antoine loose on boxing and he worked out a lot of aggressions. I think he really liked it – I know it’s my favorite game of the bunch.

Around eleven he headed home, so I straightened up a bit and went to bed.
