There is no "boxing day" here in Japan. I have a regular saturday at work - full 11 lessons. It was nice to call home last night and talk to Mom. The dinner i made was awesome and delicious. I made Thai shrimp spring rolls, red pepper smoked chicken with white rice and green salad. And opened a nice Spanish Cabernet-Tempranillo.
Tonight there are a plethora of parties going on in town but i think we will stay home and relax, watch a little of our old TV, which is currently black and white and displaying a shakey image thrown to the right. It is over twelve years old and probably giving us radiation poisoning. The new one gets delivered tomorrow!
Last night Ulala and i exchanged small token gifts. We had agreed on a low cost limit since the "real" gift to each other is splitting the cost of the new TV (which gets delivered tomorrow! yay!) I gave her a t-shirt from DesignByHumans and she gave me a DVD of BladeRunner (Awesome movie!). Now i Can watch in English but practice reading in Japanese with the subtitles. I'm looking forward to finding out how to say "android" is in Japanese.
And tomorrow Ulala and i get to take our brand new TV (Hitachi, very nice) out of it'S box. Have i mentioned the new TV gets delivered tomorrow?
Two things that need to go back in the brain-box:
Mushroom flavoured Pringles and Corona in a can (with attached packet of artificial lime juice). *shudder*
Symian is: doing nothing whatsoever with boxes today.
