brang on some fun
This weekend was productive, fun, exciting, and a tad moist. Friday night went to an awesome newly found onsen in Uozu. I would have taken pictures of how awesome it was, but I'm pretty sure that's frowned upon.
Saturday I headed into Toyama for a New Years International Thingy at the CIC. There was lots of food, people, internationalizing, dancing, puppets, singing and general merriment. I won a Hello Kitty camera in their raffle.
Went out with Rachel, heard about her awesome Christmas trip to Thailand-ate Indian food with a bunch of Toyama folks.
Today Gill and I went to Takaoka to the Nabe Festival. Nabe is a traditional Japanese food prepared in a hot pot with lots of delicious vegetables and fruits of the sea.
For three dollars a pop, we ate our way around the city. It was fun. Here is documentation of our three bowls.
# 1: Corn, shrimp, potatoes? I'm impressed, this is going to be a good day-a good day for Nabe, that is.
#2 Oooh, a big, dead critter afloat in this bowl!
#3 Really mastering that cooling technique by the third one as well as the creeping heartburn.
Had some coffee, studied, bought a new coat, ate Mos Burger. A great weekend, but my tummy hurts. I think the burger is fighting the Nabe which is fighting the coffee which is all provoked by my craving for a cigarette. Let's hope the week goes well so I don't start smoking from every possible orifice. (But I'll be sure to post pictures if I do!)

Huzzah for your not smoking
no smokey smokey
Hey! We were gallumphing around Tak all day Sunday and we didn't spy you & Gill. We would surely have hit you upside the nabe if we had. Hope you had a good time!
Good luck on the smoking thing, I fear I'm moving in the opposite direction....
Don't think of it as smoking so much as breathing ignition. When you complicate a situation, the facts get garbled in the mix, and the outcome is usually much bettzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...
Oh, I'm sorry. I fell asleep.
