Well, here we are. Having arrived at last. At a new post? At our new workplace posting? Well, I’m just not too sure. You’ll have to wait and see, you see?
Haha.
I suppose I could merit a quick and peppy little post. Mostly for myself. Not simply for others. But, okay, I am thinking of you all, too. This is a fantastic way to keep in touch.
At present, I am doing okay. Sitting at my desk at my new workplace. Finishing up another day -a Friday, in fact. I have made some new friends -one of which is my home. My house is one of my new friends. It is a small and rather quaint place. A place where all the windows rattle when it winds (is windy) and it is a place that is welcome. I have a bed, bath, fridge, and even an ice tray. All the necessities.
As I am at work now, though I am past the working normal hours of five pm, I post. I post now for you. But until I have internet at home, which at the present I do not, you will have to wait.
I remember when I was following another fellow’s blog. A bloke who, too, was on JET. He never posted as he promised. It made me sad. For I had wanted to read all about what was going on in his daily spats.
Well for now I can leave you with this. The other day for breakfast (and yes, this is about Japan) sigh* (okay, and yes, I have several restaurants in my town that all serve ramen: shio/salt, shoyu/soy sauce flavor, and right. . even miso -in case you were wondering) breakfast. . for breakfast I topped my fresh pot of rice with a very sticky, fiberous concoction of flying fish eggs, marinated seaweed, a few other strands of hairy-looking vegetables and such. Yup. I plopped it right on my rice not knowing what it was and I ate it.
I almost didn’t want to, but I did. And I was surprised! If you’re lucky, and if you wait, I’ll have more to tell.
In the meantime thank you for your patience. I really do want to post!
But I’m overdue for a date with my bicycle -today, this evening, now I am going to see the ocean and watch the sunset.
And to you all, goodnight and good morning.
(The photo is to remind us, okay, well, to remind me that there are people out there who work hard. People who are dedicated to their work. I can learn from them, you can too? But that’s not up to me. Okay here, let this picture be a reminder to you to enjoy your weekend. Photo: bryc ewords)
