Well, it was definately a fun weekend! Yesterday morning, I taught my private student and then relaxed in my apartment for most of the day. Daryle mentioned that he was going to head into Moriya to study Japanese at Starbucks in the evening so I asked if he wanted to meet for coffee. Daryle and I met, had some sushi and then some coffee. After talking about Daryle being single, an idea popped into my head and came out of my mouth.
"Let's go to Shinjuku Ni-chome" (Tokyo's gay area) right NOW!"
Daryle and I both hummed and hawed a bit about it, and then finally decided to be completely spontaneous and do it! We went back to my apartment, quickly changed clothes, organized our booze for the night (what we would take) and headed out. We got a tad tipsy on the train and we're overly friendly and said HELLO to almost everyone we saw! We met our friend Kouji who had decided to join us for drinks for the night. It was a really great night, and we met some great people but I guess spontaneity doesn't come without consequences. As Daryle & I were entering Dragon after our delicious curry dinner, I trip and fell on the way in. I caught my toe on the wooded deck at the entrance and ripped my toe apart something fierece. It was so painful and gushing blood. Luckily, the booze that followed help me forget about the pain for a bit.
Daryle and I took one of the first trains back to Moriya and we arrived home around 7:30am. I took a shower, cleaned up my toe with disinfectant and then went to sleep. I woke up around 2:30pm and just relaxed in my apartment for the rest of the day. At 6:30pm, I picked up Brita and we headed to Daryle's apartment in Ryugasaki for Liyan's suprise 24th birthday dinner. We had so much great food including the chanko nabe that Daryle made. It was a fun and spontaneous weekend, but I'm quite exausted and still in a bit of pain from my toe.
Hope this upcoming work week is a good one! Lucky JETs who don't have to work tomorrow: ENJOY YOUR DAY OFF!
