Leftover Duty

Today was a pretty relaxing day at home. I ended up skipping work today, and I have a feeling that all the other teachers did the same thing. I guess I’ll find out tomorrow. Kuniko also had the day off, so we alternated between studying and doing fun things. We went to a nearby video place and opened up a new account, so now we can rent out videos and DVDs now and then for a lot cheaper than the movie theater.

Today we rented “A Few Good Men” and watched that. We had a simple lunch of chirashizushi that Kuniko’s mom had made. All in all a very mellow day.

Rather than go over again to Kuniko’s parents house, we decided to stick around here tonight. The last few nights they have cooked up big meals and I was feeling kind of bad – like we were imposing on them. Next Friday is Kuniko’s mom’s birthday, so we’ll probably take her out to a sushi restaurant and eat big next weekend.

We just wrapped up a leftover dinner – we had leftover pumpkin wrapped in pork (hard to imagine, but very good), soumen noodles (I added jalapenos to the dipping sauce for me), leftover guacamole and chips, and finally some camenbert cheese on ritz crackers. I’m still stuffed.

Tomorrow it’s back to work, kind of. I’m going in but I’ve heard that they may still be doing work in my office. I’ll go check it out, though. Kuniko has a regular day at work, so at least one of us is back on a schedule.
