Sunday night, and Kuniko and I have just finished off the leftovers from last night. We’re taking batting practice on the Wii and relaxing.
Today we went over to Anthony and Risa’s place for lunch. They live in nearby Asagiri, but everyone is so busy that we haven’t been able to meet up. They recently built a house there, and they even have a dog, so we went over to see how domestic they really were.
They met us at Asagiri station, and we walked over to their place. It was good to see them again. They looked hale and hearty – nobody had changed at all. Their house was really nice, and we met their dog who was sitting outside in a mini-dog run.
While their house was a three story place, it wasn’t as large as the Okamoto’s place. Since the Okamotos live out in the sticks, they can have a bigger place. Risa and Anthony’s place really used space creatively, and it was fun to poke around.
Anthony had made authentic Malaysian curry for us, and he served it we rice that he got at a special store – it was long grain and not as sticky as Japanese rice. The curry was excellent, with good flavor and spiciness. We supplied the desserts, and by the end of it everyone was really full.
Anthony had a little mini ping pong table upstairs in one of the rooms, so we played three or four games. I’ve never played on a tiny little table like that, and it took some getting used to. At first I lost big, but I was starting to improve by the end of it.
We headed back home from there, and we’ve just been relaxing ever since. Tomorrow we’re headed back to work, and it’ll be my last three days of work this week. Monday and Tuesday I don’t have classes, so it should be a really easy week.
