Suma Izakaya

It was a busy day today at school, and not only did I have four classes, but I also got another call into the principal’s office. I guess the Board Of Education wanted me to come in and help them out again on short notice. They requested next Tuesday, which is one of my busiest days. I had been planning a Martin Luther King lesson that day, so it’ll have to go into the shoebox for next year.

Hasegawa sensei called me from the Board of Education office, and he was really happy that I could make it out to help them. He was actually giggling about it. I think sometimes he enjoys throwing his weight around. They’re even sending a car to pick me up in the morning, so I don’t have to take the long bus ride into Yashiro. Unfortunately, I’ll have to take the bus back.

After school I took the train into Suma, the beach time a little east of Akashi. I met Antoine, and we visited an izakaya to have lots of little dishes of food and lots to drink. We talked and talked about the first week of real classes, and we were both tired out, despite it being only a short week.

I was really tired heading home, and I went right to sleep when I got back. Saturday is supposed to be rainy, and Kuniko is planning to come into town late at night, so I have something to look forward to. We’re going to try to book our plane tickets this weekend for our trip to California in March. Woo-hoo!
