Holy crap! It’s as if somebody left the snot generator in my nose on the highest setting and then left. I’m home from school hacking and spitting up a variety of phlegm colors, kind of a green tinted rainbow of nose grease. I’m writing this down because someday I’m going to look back at this entry and I want to remember the sheer amount of snot my nose is producing.

OK, I feel better venting about that. Today Mr. Hayashi and I graded exams during the day, while I sniffed and coughed in the corner. He felt bad and let me go home early, so I went over to the store to buy more vitamin C, some orange juice, and some noodles for dinner later on.

At home I went right to bed after dosing up on the C – I probably have 10 grams of the stuff running through my body. I woke up around four o’clock, made some kimchee ramen for dinner, and now I’m sipping some hot vitamin C drink and downloading the latest Survivor. I had a nice easy week this week, and I was hoping to go into Akashi and throw some darts. Now I’m thinking I’m going to have to stay in tonight and rest.

This weekend is looking to be very quiet. I originally was going hiking tomorrow, but if I’m sick I’ll have to skip it. Sunday I might join Miss Kageyama and two of her friends on a shopping trip in Sannomiya. It’s in the planning stages, so I’m not for sure on that yet.

Tonight I may get proactive and go out to Akashi and check out Toys R Us – I think the Japanese version might be very interesting. It seems like I was just sick, and as I recall, it ruined a perfectly good weekend. I might have to play through this one.

If I go to Toys R Us I’ll take lots of pictures and post them here – we’ll see how it goes!
