Whither weather?
It's supposed to rain on and off for the next few days. Of course, tomorrow is all-day practice for Sports Day, and Sports Day is on Sunday... I guess it's tsuyu time soon.
I got paid, so today I actually went to make sure I could take out money. I showed up at a Shinsei ATM in Ikebukuro just as they were apparently either supplying or unsupplying an ATM with cash, so there were these two security guards looking very strict (but not particularly dangerous to be honest). It was a bit weird. But yeah, all is right with the world.
I went to Mint and spent like 6000 yen on baseball cards because I'd been so good and held off until payday. Got the Tokyo Big 6 2009 Spring set full price, got the 2008 Spring set for 1000 yen. Also got the 2009 Fighters and Marines team sets for 1260 each (100 cards in the set, no rares, it's a decent deal). I played some UFO catchers and got some more stuffed animals I don't need, and I also played some Pop'n, and I had my favorite kaitensushi for dinner.
I did something very odd tonight -- I cut and polished my fingernails. I guess I'm sick of the kids at school exclaiming that I'm some kind of mutant freak because my nails are so long. And I figured I still had the polish that Yoichi gave me as a goodbye present from GEOS (he works for a cosmetics company here and used to always come to class with his nails painted from the tests in his lab). I actually can't remember the last time I painted my fingernails, first, but second... I don't have any nail polish remover, nor do I know how to say it in Japanese, so I'm sure in a week or two I'll be at Ito Yokado or Matsukiyo pantomiming wildly to try to get some.
I really should join a gym. I really miss the one back in Seattle. I'm kind of afraid of being stared at all the time if I join one here.
