You know something is screwed up with your home wireless connection when you have to resort to using the iPhone to update rather than using the laptop, even though the laptop is about a metre away, and I've proclaimed my dislike of typing using the phone.
Grr. Now my laptop is only useful for msn and watching shows. Which is all well and good, except that I can't use pigg on it and the iPhone doesn't support Flash.
Is raining outside and I feel this irrepressible urge to lie down on the road downstairs, face up, and enjoy the rain on my face. Somehow, the late night piano player hasn't been acive for the past two nights. It's starting to feel a little lonely without him/her somehow. Randomly, I love the pitter patter of raindrops on my window panes.
Couldn't resist anymore, so I got myself that book on Kansai-ben. Happened to see a book beside it on Japanese grammar forms but I don't know how useful it will be. Looks not bad, but I guess I'll wait for the people who know the language better to return and advise me on it. Kino at Taka also has Murakami Haruki's "Underground" in stock!!!! But I am a cheapo, so I'll have to hold that off till the summer sales next month.
I feel like such a bum because all I'm doing at home now is watching variety shows. I think I'll run out of them very soon. Maybe it's then time to start on all the movies and dramas I have stored up. Randomly downloading things has proved to be right. Like I never knew I'd love Red Theater so much. Latest find has been Gurunai, which is a shortened form of "guruguru ninety nine", which means that it's hosted by Ninety Nine!! I realised I've never seen Ninety Nine's performances before, only when they host variety shows. So yea it was a surprise when they mentioned that Okamura was the boke. Always thought he was the tsukkomi.
Last week of freedom. Really have to finish meeting up with people. Shall come up with a schedule for the coming week or I'll just waste the entire week being a hikkikomori again.
