I had a price on Friday
I got sick last Thursday and it lasted through Saturday night/Sunday morning, though slightly numbed on Saturday due to the visit of Gallagher and Alex, some beer, and some medicine I took that day. That was…fun…. Actually, I did have a good time. We played park golf and watched a Japanese movie about some college students who come across a time machine and it gets really confusing after that as to who is in what time and whatnot. Especially after a beer or two. I just wrote a few sentences trying to explain the movie but it`s just not worth trying to explain now. Suffice it to say it was about some college students, time travel, a broken air conditioner remote, and a kappa. And, it was pretty funny. Japanese expressions are great. We watched it with the lights on. I think I made some embarrassing comments about how I used to be so insecure hanging out with boys before I got married, but I now realize it`s only partly true, so I don`t know why I said that. I was only insecure around boys I liked…and that`s completely normal. Now, no matter what, Jonathan will always be number one. Always. It`s natural and a choice. I choice I made, want to make, and will always make.
I made french toast for the boys in the morning - with french bread!
On Sunday morning while Gallagher and Alex were about to leave, we were watching some music videos by The Darkness and another band I can`t remember the name of and for one of the videos all of a sudden all the guys got up and starting dancing - it was great to watch. I just got to the point where I can dance freely in front of Jonathan and I can`t wait till I`m happy to dance like I`m alone anywhere. It will be a good time in my life, I think.
Something interesting happened between Jonathan and I yesterday. He was writing (or reading, maybe?) and was listening to the ipod. I was sitting at the computer, trying to play a song with my guitar. We were both enjoying music separately, in our own separate worlds. I tried to play quietly as to not interfere with his enjoyment of whatever he was listening to, then all of a sudden Jon busts out singing rather loudly to a song he was listening to. I could no longer hear myself or my playing. I look over at him and he`s sitting at the table, eyes closed, head swirling back and forth through the air, only slightly to the rhythm of the song. He was into the music. In his own world. My enjoyment of my project had stopped, however, for a moment and I must have had an annoyed look on my face because as soon as he looked at me, he apologized. But I was only a little annoyed, then annoyed that I was annoyed. I was partly in awe. Here is the man that I love, experiencing music, which is what I hope everyone can do and will do as much as possible. That is why I love it, because it`s so powerful. It has the ability to truly transcend you, help bring out an emotion, shape the ambience of your experience, and relate to feelings. It might be able to create them, even - I`m still thinking about that one. It was great to see him like that. I`ve seen it before and have been even slightly frightened by it before, but even then, that is the beauty of music doing it`s job once again. Feeling is good.
On another note, my co-workers at my office have been worried for me today (and Thursday) because I have been coughing a lot. Then, as they try to say the English word “fever,” I guess what they are saying and try to say the Japanese word for fever, “netsu,” but instead the first word that comes out of my mouth happens to be “nedan.” I`ve done it maybe 4 times in the past few days. I even realize it`s wrong as soon as it comes out of my mouth. Nedan means “price.” Arg.
Jon and I stayed up later than usual last night because we know we have three days off this week for Golden week…like that was going to help us not be tired today? Hehehe…my character`s almost level 25 on WoW. Leveling her tonight, baby.
