Feeling a bit...Hemingwayish.
Still getting over my cold (thanks Tonchan, who is totally and completely fine thanks lovely).
Watched several episodes of BattleStar Galactica 4 until far too late after having a lovely pork chop dinner at Oak Door with TheManDan.
So got not enough sleep.
And it was raining.
Been raining.
Still raining.
Autumn is upon us so I am actually wearing my suits these days. Just cool enough to need to jacket but not cold enough to break out the winter wear. Actually completely lovely weather if it were not for. The. Rain.

Celebrated Gosoke's "kanreki" aka 60th birthday, in proper style on the 7th floor of Mitsukoshi Department Store. Lotsa food, bad speeches (including mine), photos, and beverages.
Afterwards got dinner with Elvis and talked smack as we are wont.

stinky
(Note: if you don't have kids and/or don't want to read about my child's bowel movements, skip this post.)
So recently Tonchan's starting to get the concept. She often gets really pissy about putting on her diaper (then again I love running around the aparmtent naked, too...who doesn't?)
When she does her thing in the morning, I or P will sign for diaper change and point at her diaper and say "stinky" and she usually goes "no...no..." until she's totally done and ready to get changed. Then she points at her diaper and goes "stinky."
So this morning she pointed at me as I was going into the toilet and with a big smile screamed "STINKY! POOPING!"
Wife, what are you teaching my child?

I will be here all day...
And I was. Seven hours of pure Money Lending joy. Good news: the last hour we were basically told the answer to every question on the exam. So if you were still awake (a tough call for some) then the test was easy. If I got more than one question wrong it's because the RedBull I chugged a couple hours ago was wearing off.

Went to Ginza, which was PACKED with people. Three day weekend and the opening of the first H&M in Japan (line around the block, why I have no idea.)
Hit Azabu Tailor to get the cuffs on my shirts adjusted, and ended up ordering a new suit.
Then we chec ed out Muji before walking back to Shinbashi Station. Stopped in at MosBurger for a snack. Tonchan inhaled all the whipped cream off of a pumpkin pudding, calling it "icecream" the whole time.
Then her assault on the french fries began.
Silently she consumed fry after fry, barely stopping to sip ice tea or even breath.
nooooooooo!!!!!!!!!

Tonchan gives us a preview of what the terrible two's will be like. Here she masters the English word "no" with all it's subtle nuance and overtones.
