A More Meaningful Friday

There are a couple of exciting things to look forward to today.  Today is the grand opening of the newly remodeled supermarket in town.  We usually went to the old market (Vivre) after work just about every day to buy stuff for dinner, so we are both very interested to see what the new place looks like.  It has a different name (Oishis?), but that it all we know about it.  I’ll check it out when I get home tonight.

In addition, Kuniko is attending a party tonight to get to know the new teachers in her school.  She’ll be out having fun this evening, so I’ve got to figure out what I should do on the Friday before nine days off.  I’m sure I’ll have some ideas during the day today.

And finally today at work I get a chance to teach the new employees one more time.  The first lesson was OK, but the next one is a little more intense.  We’ll try to cover formal introductions, exchanging business cards, and even writing business e-mails in English.  It is a lot to pack in while trying to avoid boring them to tears.  Let’s hope it works out…
