This weekend was good, I have to say. Saturday was the "frolic festival" of snow (Sorry, Father, I couldn't resist.) and Sunday Grandfather came over. We played Chess for a bit. Finished our one game and actually managed to play another. He won both of them. It's pretty apparent that he's very good and I'm very out of practice.
We did some training too. Mikomi took the oportunity to show to her grandfather how much she learned from Vezelay last week. I would have thought she'd shown him Thursday, but I think she was also showing how much she's learned from practicing too. Which is something she does every single day.
We put our cooking skills (thanks to Goten) into making fried chicken. Yes, I went out and bought one of those fryer machines, so we broke it in Sunday. Mikomi thought this was pretty neat. We also figured if we could fry chicken, we could make french fries, so that's exactly what we did. French fries, fried chicken and a salad, just to convince myself this was healthy. Ice cream for desert, because it's got milk in it. Yes, I'm not fooling anyone, am I?
Today though, it's back to school for Mikomi and back to work for me. Mikomi's got her lessons with Vezelay today, which she's really looking forward to, of course. I'm at work, back to the other project we had, trying to develop and build this capsule that hold living things safely. One nice thing, they sent down breakfast to us this morning, to thank us for staying late the other day. Of course, I'd already eaten breakfast with Mikomi, but I wasn't going to turn it down.
Supreme Kai showed up for training this morning. I was teamed off against him, and Gokou warned me to lower my power level. You know, I know I may not be as strong as the rest of the group, probably because I haven't really had much to challenge me, but I think Shin is being underestimated. Partially, I feel by his own mental blocks. I sense some power in him he needs to tap into. I'm not saying he has the potential of a Saiyajin at SSJ4, but I think with some work, he could be a lot stronger than he thinks he is now.
Work, yes, I'm supposed to be doing that now. So, I should get back to that, shouldn't I? So much for the coffee break.
