Logging this week
Tuesday was Ito-Yokado-Food-And-Hide-Under-The-Kotatsu day.
Wednesday was up in Saitama for the genkai-black-company-whatever movie, so I ate dinner at Kua'Aina as I often do when I go up there. It was yummy :) Also, Uniqlo. Wish turtlenecks were also 690 yen like the other longsleeve shirts.
Thursday was in Shinjuku. I got kaitensushi at that crazy bright place right near the east exit that I have walked by a bazillion times but never actually ate at. It wasn't bad, was kind of interesting actually because they have two levels of conveyor belts, so new stuff goes on the higher one first as it comes out.
Today is Friday, but I was at school until almost 7pm, so I just came home, grabbed food from Yokado and hid under the kotatsu again. It's been raining all day.
You know, I rewatched Touch tonight, and I can honestly say that while I appreciate the story and all, I think part of what majorly ruins the movie for me is Masami Nagasawa. But what REALLY gets me is, now that I have actually lived in Tokyo for a while and been to so many stadiums and all... when you have a scene that is supposed to take place in west Tokyo, and somehow Minami is supposed to run from her house and take a bus and wind up at Jingu stadium to watch Tatsuya pitch the final innings, and what ACTUALLY happens is Minami runs through part of Urawa, arrives somehow at Jingu stadium anyway, runs around Jingu to the OUTFIELD entrance, runs into the stadium... and actually runs into the infield of OMIYA STADIUM. Seriously, why the fuck couldn't they just get Jingu for real for the movie, rather than showing the outside of Jingu and the inside of Omiya? I guess Japanese people are willing to cut them slack out of love for the story, but I can't be the only one going "And now starring Omiya Stadium as Jingu..." It was kind of like back when they filmed Wonder Boys at CMU, and anyone who actually lived in the area would watch certain scenes like "Wait, where's the wormhole such that they just turned right on a street in Shadyside to end up on a street in the north hills?" (Or whatever. It's been 10 years since they made that movie, so I kind of forget.)
I still like H2 better, anyway.
Ugh, there has to be a way to balance hiding under the kotatsu and actually getting anything useful done on my laptop.
