Mundanity Strikes
My 'Saturday' and it's been raining elephants and lions all day, so it seemed like a good excuse to have a day off; just doing house-work and resting.
I went swimming; washed my clothes; remembered it was raining so couldn't hang them up to dry outside; tidied my room; watched an episode of "The Rise And Fall Of Reginald Perrin"; ate pasta; had a shave and a shower; went into Tsunashima; on my way out, saw a letter about tax contributions; bought yet another 'learning Japanese' book*; went to a coffee shop for a coffee and read my new book; saw a big worm; wrote about Dali and cows; threw away a sock that had lost its elastic; went back to the gym; had another shower; ate soup for dinner; watched Mulholland Drive; typing this.
It was nice to neither work nor run around sightseeing. It was, normal. It was, boring.
Oh God, it was boring.
Tomorrow, I'm going somewhere.
*I read that a big predictor of a child's intelligence is how many books are in his/her house, regardless of whether he/she reads them or not. I'm hoping the same is true for learning a language.

glad to see you are treating an interest in art, do you have a Japenese museum of modern art in Tokyo? or a Guggenheim. In New York it was really weird, we went to the Tate and saw a really bizzare display "the artists toothbrush" we looked and could not see it, on stepping back there it was, a tooth brush in a glass on a glass shelf 12 foot up on the wall....... why did not I think of that?!!! Complete rubbish but not as bad as the display at the Guggenheim, a glass box, with a display of an old cigarette tin and inside one presumes was the tittle "the artists sh*t"........ at least a realistic description and yes I agree with your opinion it's just crap!!!
So a boring day but we all need those once in a while, just to appreciate how good other days are..........
The japenese characters are not shown on this laptop, Ok on house PC so must be to do with the settings and not what you are doing............ less than 5 hours until my Birthday, or in your geosphere already there!!!!
love Dadxxx
