納豆の日*

i am sick.  yes, i know, again.
it started like it always does,
with a sore throat.  (seriously throat?)
but today, two days later,
it's a pure head cold.
the infamous "natsu kaze"

Ro left last night for iwate
for a couple days of volunteering.
there was a big earthquake this morning
and they headed for higher ground.
sat for two hours, but were okay.

i happened to watch nhk's
sign language "lesson" on tv tonight.
i might even go buy the text
or at least try to watch every week.
not that it would be useful,
just something to learn.

last week Ro and i went to yoga
at a place close to yokohama station.
i really liked the teacher
and for 2500yen, you get access
to the onsen, sauna & relaxation room too.
i bought a cheap yoga mat
and it's my new friday night routine.

apparently the rainy season
is officially over.
i don't remember a lot of rain.
but maybe the oppressive heat
has just made me forget?
i don't know how i'm
going to survive the summer
because it's only gonna get hotter.

there's no point to this post.
i figured i just needed to post something
something to get back to posting.
i used to have so much to say.
i hope i haven't become
a boring person
with nothing to say anymore...
i just need to start typing again, i guess.


*i didn't actually eat any natto today because i don't like it.  :P
