Today Kuniko was out the door early, and so I threw the first of many loads of laundry in the machine, and set about cleaning the house a little bit. I didn’t do too much because it was so early and I didn’t want to wake up the neighbors. I wonder just how loud my footsteps are down there. <\/p>\n
Around lunchtime I went over to Ito Yokado and did a little bit of shopping, nothing major really. The store is still full of Hanshin Tigers mania – the clerks have to wear these embarrassing cardboard hats. I feel sorry for them. It’s really a ridiculous looking hat. I’d take pictures but I feel too sorry for the people wearing the hats. <\/p>\n
I watched Survivor, mopped the floor, took a nap, talked with with mom on the phone, and that’s about it. It feels good to relax a little bit, but Kuniko is the one who needs it more than I do. I’m going to try to have everything ready for her when she gets home later tonight, and then she can just relax. <\/p>\n
Tomorrow, depending on our energy level, we’ll be heading to Osaka to do some shopping and take in a concert at the Blue Note. It’s the acappella group that is comprised of a few of Kuniko’s friends. There is a chance that we will have them perform at our wedding reception, but they are changing lead singers and we’re not sure if it will be a good change or not. Between the ocarina solos, acappella groups, and speeches by Japanese and foreigners it should make for a very interesting reception. Karaoke has been strictly prohibited.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
