[614] Go~lden Wee~k~ - 2008/04/27 (Sun)

It seems to be a Golden Week for the general public this week. I didn't even notice until just today... (^^;)

Does everyone have plans? People who have a break, please enjoy your respite as much as you please. People who are working, let's get through this together. (^_^)

Today I went to take some pictures at my friend's car dealer. For a long time, my friend's been saying, 'I wanna make a homepage~' so I some quick clicks.

They're just photos like for a car magazine, so they're not that interesting, but the last one I took was like this. (^_^)

It turns out to have been my friend's virgin SLR experience, and he was like, 'These are incredible photographs...' Completely brainwashed. (^_^)

Just like that, I've enlisted another person into the Camera Friends reserve army. (^_^)

At any rate, Golden Week, nice... I haven't been about to go out and take photos at all recently, so I've been wanting to go out anywhere and take photos for a whole day...

When I think like that, today, right now... (^_^)

Well then well then~ Have a nice weekend~ For those of you traveling, please be careful not to have any accidents.

[613] LISMO~ - 2008/04/26 (Sat)

My cell's broken, so when I went to buy a new one, I hadn't noticed, but hasn't the price of cell phones has skyrocketed?

Before, it was cheap enough that I could afford to change phones every year, but now, it seems the system has changed.

The system's changed so dizzyingly, I'm worried about it's future...

Soon, no one will be able to buy one... Although even if it were 100,000 yen for one phone, I can't manage to be without one... (*angry*) *

Speaking of, aren't those newest phones easily broken? In the old analogue era (bwahahah) you could drop them, step on them, those things seemed simply unbreakable...

Ah, but on the other hand, it was an enormous charge for a telephone call. (^^;) Plus, one phone was about 100,000 yen. (^^;)

Man~ This is a nice era we live in. (^_^)

Incidentally, this time, I didn't go with 1SEG. ** (^^;) I don't really use anything but calling and emailing. (^_^) **

Well then well then~ Have a nice weekend~


[ * that's about $1,000.
** 1SEG is japan's terrestrial mobile broadcasting service. so you can watch TV on your cell phone.
also, the title, LISMO, is au's mobile music service. ]

[612] The Water Connection... - 2008/04/23 (Wed)

A water cooler is dangerous. Gulping down cold water is so easy, and you use it for cooking, and then in one instant, your water consumption is up.

Aaa... Water seems to live in a beautiful place...

Well, if you buy the central water purification system, the story's over, but still. (^^;) It's expensive. (About 200,000 yen~ ) *

House-wide water service gives you completely clean water, so the expense can't be helped I guess. The bath water is filtered, too, so it calls out to me a little. (^_^)

That even the toilet water is filtered makes me laugh, but. (^_^)

Man-- how bourgeois, huh. (^_^)

P.S. Even though I didn't get much sleep yesterday, I was bright-eyed, and I wasn't very sleepy at all. Even today, I didn't sleep any more than usual, and I'm some kind of healthy...

Perhaps, this is the Spirit power...? Yeah... If I go again some day...

Next time I should draw some water properly. (^_^)


[ * about $20,000. jebus.
also, holy crap i really need rikaichan to work on firefox 3.0... or i guess i could just learn some vocabulary. ... ... yeah. ]

[611] The talk of the town... - 2008/04/22 (Tue)

I went to see the zero magnetic field. Earlier riser. (^_^)

It seems to be some kind of world-leading amazing power spot.

It's called a Spirit, and of course it's not visible, so people feel differently about it. * Of course whether I believe it or not...

Actually, there's spring water here, too, and that's why people come and people come, dipping in their water bottles and plastic jugs.

Lots of people carry water out with them, so I tried at least wetting my hands.

Then, mysteriously, my hands got nice and smooth! (^_^) And it continued for several tens of minutes, this silky smooth feeling. (*shock*)

Then, my interest piqued, I tried taking a drink of the water. Things like that, you know... you can't say much for the taste. (^_^) Well, it's spring water, so it really is natural mineral water, but this water, well, it would be delicious to make sake with... (^_^) That's what the flavor made me think anyway.

Feel it or not, believe it or not, this drink did have real worth. (^_^)

So, when I went to climb down the mountain, I noticed that I was hacking up a lung, but when I thought about it, I hadn't been coughing on the way up...

Man~ There are still some mysteries left in this world, you know.

That water, I should have gotten some to take home with me. (^_^)


[ the word i've put as Spririt here is the character pronounced KI, which is the second half of the word denki (electricity) and tenki (weather) and so forth, and is usually translated by itself as spirit. ]

[610] Grotesque - 2008/04/21 (Mon)

Last night, there was a meat meet for the first time in a long time, and when I went to lay in my stock of beef,

it turns out that colds are wildly popular around here...

Well, I myself have one, but still. (^^;)

Eventually, my homor decreased by about half, but I had a large quantity of meat...

However, honestly, the smell of the lard with yakiniku is really incredible, isn't it? Even if it is just for a short time, the floor is all slippery, and the room is filled with the smell of spreading disease. (^^;)

Man-- For a while, I should live with the smell of a butcher, huh. (^_^)

Ah, there's meat left, I'd better go eat it... (^^;)

[609] Unagi~ - 2008/04/18 (Fri)

I really can't escape my physical condition can I...

Probably like saying 'That's enough rain!!' (*angry*)

Today's like some kind of typhoon.
Well, thinking of one-shot nutritional supplements, I ate 'UNAGI,' the promised stamina supply. (^_^)

Actually, there was a special sale. (^_^)

However, I get a little frazzled when I'm hungry, don't you? (^^;) I ate more than usual, about a 20% increase... In order to repair my physical health, it can't be helped. (^_^)

I'm aiming for a complete recovery by next week!!

[608] Oh oh oh - 2008/04/17 (Thu)

Another sleeping posture post. (^_^)

I've told you the story of when I was about to lose my foot, right? That was a truly scary story. (^_^)

I was in the hospital about two weeks that time, but the days passed, and the nurse was there to look at, so somehow everyone got a wry smile about it.

I didn't think there was anything about it to smile wryly at, so it seemed a mystery to me

when the day nurse who was there, suddenly says to me, 'Will you please stop that already~'

I was in the hospital and couldn't walk, and I was constantly in a wheelchair, but I had so much free time every day that I played around and learned to to wheelies in my wheelchair. (^_^)

I thought for sure that's what she much have been calling me out on, and I started to apologize...

'I think about it all the time, when I'm setting up your futon at night! Really seriously, your sleeping posture is terrible!' She cut right to the heart of the matter. (^^;)

Thereafter, when she was on patrol, I tried to lay straight on my futon constantly... (^^;) Seemed like each time, she was there to set up the futon...



... I kind of feel sorry for anyone who has to sleep with my... (bwahahah)

At first, I set up the futon perfectly, but eventually my self-confidence was neglected!! (^_^) *

Well... Setting the jokes aside. (^_^) Slowly the night turns to dawn and I should be getting to bed... GOOD NIGHT...


[ ok, that's some joke, and i don't get it, but frankly, i've been staring at it for a couple of days now and i still don't get it. let's all just laugh politely. a ha ha ha. ]
