Today I spent a pretty mellow day at school, and then Melanie and I went over to Akashi for some beers at Murphy’s, and Irish bar that is run by a genuine Irishman. It is located in the red light district, and the bartenders tend to drink more than you do. It was a lot of fun. I actually bumped into another JET there that I had been trying to get in touch with. He was chugging away the Murphy’s Irish Stout, and so I was able to get his number. He wants to be part of the poker group.<\/p>\n
Melanie’s friend Brendan came in and promptly started chatting up a Japanese girl in the bar, so I think I served my purpose, and the heat is off her. After a few beers we got going down the road and beat a big thunderstorm home. Tomorrow is the Friday before a long weekend so I’m pretty excited.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
