[607] This is the time! - 2008/04/17 (Thu)

I will I WILL!! (ambiguous yelling)

Man, it has reached my throat. It squeezed my voice and chipped away at it, and now it's barely there. (bwahahah)

Mysteriously, even with this fever, my appetite hasn't weakened. (^^;) I think it'll cure me more quickly, so I always eat more than usual. (^_^)

Everyone please properly cover up when you go to bed. (^_^)

As for me, my work is piling up, so I'm going to go for the Mamushi power...! *


[ * mamushi = broiled eel, usually mixed into rice]

[606] Again... - 2008/04/16 (Wed)

I'm totally sick. (^^;)

As expected, this is the effect of last week's jet-lag-induced lack of sleep. Just when I thought I finally got to sleep, I woke back up hacking. (^_^)

Man, how many times have I taken my medicine, and I took some more, but still.

Everyone please be careful.

As for me, well... maybe I have a bad sleeping posture. (bwahahah) But when I wake up every day, my covers are gone... (^^;) It's winter! I'll catch my death of cold! (^_^)

In just a little period, it completely changes... What's with that??

I don't have any control while I'm unconcious. (^_^)

Anybody know how to cure one's sleeping posture?

[605] Brown Rice Diet - 2008/04/14 (Mon)

Even with jet-lag, it feels good to settle back into my nocturnal lifestyle. (^_^) Returning also are the scars it leaves on my body. (^_^)

Before we went to France, I was all kerfluffle, and wasn't in control of any proper eating habits, and over there, I had nothing but bread... Extremely fat. (^^;)

My back and my head are quiet, so training camp will be reopening, and I will endevour to repel my flab for another couple of days. (^_^)

Of course, even my eating habits have been reduced to the Brown Rice Pact. The Brown Rice Diet has gotten a bad rep with those around me one way or another, but this one, well, even I thought it was intense at first. (^_^) After you get used to eating it, though, white rice become mysteriously unsatisfying.

It's good for the body, so everyone should please give it a try. The fangirls might find it easier to eat at first. *

Ah, when I tell a food story, I'm suddenly hungry... (^_^)

P.S. As you might expect, Japan is a big car country. Car posts are inexhaustible. (^_^) Definitely take care and drive carefully.


[ * i know you did not just say that, yuu! (^_^) ]

[604] Paris Parking Conditions (^_^) - 2008/04/12 (Sat)

Eh, well... Can I really show this? (^_^)

People over there must think, 'Did I hit the bumber?'

and then knock the car on purpose, and then use the gap for parking. Parallel parking feels exactly like that, and it's limited.

Um... Even with some kind of luxury car, can I still hit it? (^_^) If there's a bunch of Benz around, I'll feel a little akward. (^^;)

Nevertheless, the number of compact cars within the city of Paris surprised me. Peugot, Citroen, Renault, Mini, Smart... etc It's a narrow city, so I think small cars are resonable, but it fits the city of Paris especially, since it's such a fashionable place.

The fuel consuption on compact cars in good, and it doesn't take up much space, so it's very economical for a lot of people in the world.

I've decided the next car I buy will be a hybrid, but the black car in the photograph is a Smart car, I could waste some money on. A two-seater is absurdly cute for a car. (^_^)

Well then well then everyone, have a good weekend~


[ zomg have you seen the Smart cars!? they are the very definition of cute. i swear i WILL have one!!! ]

[603] More and more I can't get to sleep (^^;) - 2008/04/12 (Sat)

Even the morning was premature... Why... (^_^)

Yeah, I did get some proper rest, but... Actually, I had to borrow something before I went home. (^_^)

Tentatively for the final time...

'GwaaaAAAA...... I need the sequel!!'

That's how I felt. (^_^)

Also, for people who haven't seen it, go go!!

Ah, the pain is consistently softening. My back, well, it's not that serious, yeah... (bwahahah)

Of course that didn't happen until the check up. (^_^) I can't help being extremely sleepy, but... (^_^)

And yet, it is two thirty in the morning...

[602] My wish got through! (^_^) - 2008/04/11 (Fri)

Today I just about felt good with that nice weather. Gradually, I felt the warm sunrays of warm summer.

So, I left straight off for some maintenance. (^_^) Since I've been in pain until today, I've been back and forth to every masseur, acupuncturist, chiropractor, and therapist in this city, but actually this is the best place for me.

I haven't been downtown in a while, and I feel bad if I don't go at least once a year, but the chiropractor has been a great help to me for a number of years now.

That doctor, you know, he's kind of famous in the local area, but really he is amazing. The pain is completely gone, like magic.

Except, you know, the intense pain following surgery, so if you don't obey your bed rest orders that day and the day after, you're in trouble. Anyway, inevitably, I can't go without a stop over at his place.

That's why I have to go at least once a year.

This time, my back's been out of joint since the end of last year, but I've had quite the schedule, so finally I was able to go. (^_^) MAN, you really can't get in without an appointment... (^^;)

So I'll just have to hold it for a while, it seems. Ah, right now? ... I'm completely groggy on a hotel bed. (^^;)

Finally, my jet-lag has been cured, huh. (bwahahah)

Well then well then everyone, have a dreamy evening... As for me, I can't move... Aiaiaiai. (T_T)


[ sorry about the lack of updates, ladies and gentlemen. i've rediscovered ubuntu (hardy heron rocks, btw) and my easy breezy translation add-on for firefox doesn't work for the firefox 3 beta they've got on ubuntu. unfortunately, this means i have to reboot into windows every time i want to translate this thing, so i'm turning out to be a little lazy. anyhow, i'll try and work on it. gomen~ ]

[601] Jet-lag~ - 2008/04/10 (Thu)

Man~ ... I am completely jet lagged. (^^;) I'll sleep during the night and wake up straight away, but from about noon onward I'll be totally drowsy,

although this is completely standard... (*a waterfall of tears*)

Well, I'm nocturnal by nature, so sleeping in the morning is normal for me, but if I keep waking up like this, I won't be able to help sleeping until noon. On the other hand, even after a sleep like that, I can't go out, and this week, I'll go for it and wake up. I think I'd like to try the whole Being Awake in the Morning thing. (^_^)

Incidentally, I haven't slept in the one day and two hours since I've been back. (bwahahah) Yeah, with one thing or another, my head'll be hurting for a week. (^_^)

As usual, my recovery is slow and unsteady, of course...

People with jet-lag, let's firmly do some personal maintenance this weekend. I've got plans to go out for some lower back maintenance in a minute here.

Hurry up rain, stop~
