I woke up yesterday morning with a hint of a sore throat, and it continued all through yesterday. This morning it was a little bit worse, despite all the vitamin C, medicine and gargling iodine that I threw at it. Ugh – sick on a Monday. Maybe it is good to get it out of my system before any travel.
This weekend we are hoping to see Toy Story 3, but there are a lot of hurdles to overcome. The first is that Kuniko will be coming home from the study camp on Saturday, so we’ll try to time it so that we meet in Kobe to see the movie. The reason we’re seeing it in Kobe rather than Okubo is that pretty much every animated movie these days gets a Japanese dubbing, so it is difficult for us to see it with the original voices. Luckily, one theater in Sannomiya still shows the original version so we just have to travel a bit to see it. Or we can wait for the blu-ray.
I’m off to work – hopefully a day of speaking with students won’t cause too much wear and tear on my throat.
