Work

5:39pm JST Sunday 17 August 2003

Work was aight today.

Yukiji and Satoko were both in the voice room when I had voice. They yammered, both probably unaware that I've hung out with both of them outside of Nova. Hung out with is the key phrase; they both know I have a girlfriend.

Satoko is the going to Cali; she's the one Sally foffered to say HI to once Satoko is settled.

After voice, I had Yoshie man to man. Now she has my address. (I told her I have a girlfriend.) She likes rollercoasters, and one day rode Fujiyama 9 (nine) times in a row. Sweet.

Sweet.

Now I'm on my way home to change clothes before going back for the great First Annual Air Hockey Championship of Nova Kawasaki.

air hockey

11:55pm JST Sunday 17 August 2003

Had fun tonight at the FAKNAT First Annual Kawasaki Nova Air-hockey Tournament, most of which was spent at Warawara drinking (orange juice) and eating random food items. The whole night cost me 2000 yen, and everyone else between 3000 and 4000 yen. Alcohol is expensive.

Mike sat beside Rumi quite overtly flirting with her, which I certainly understand, but I'm not as impressed with his motives, which are, dare I snoot, worse than mine ever were. "But what do I do with them after I fuck them?" has been attributed to him.

Okay, enough of that.

I was in the first group who went to the air hockey fields. Benny whupped Olivia, then I beat Carla, which kinda surprised me, but then I beat Benny, which quite surprised me (I had him 8-5 then he had me 9-8 then I won 10-9)

So I emerged the winner over the Northern Division (an arbitrary designation to 6 of 24 names listed), but then . oh wait.. um, well I played Ali and he barely beat me, but the game was out of order; he was in a different division; I had to play Jen first, which I did (and won), and then played Ali again, and this time he soundly whupped me, or rather I scored several points on myself.

Lyle emerged as the winner of the Western Division, and the Eastern Division winner dropped out after winning, so the final was between Ali and Lyle, but Lyle had to "take care of some business" (Ali said "do what you gotta do to sleep at night, mon") and never came back during the night.

Back at the bar, I took lots of pictures, some of which I'll post.

Found out that Carla knows ASL!!! Wow! So we signed a tiny bit (what's yer name, and "have to be home before 10pm" (referring to Detroit (which Benny pronounces as "de-troy-it"), not to ourselves) and stuff like that) which was pretty awesome. She got a degree in ASL 7 years ago, and hasn't used it much since then.

I waited for Jen, Olivia, and Olivia to be done so we could all go home together, but while in the underground mall, Olivia picked up a small pile of cardboard flyer things and tossed them into the air. Eeek. That was too much for me; I left them. Olivia texted me "we lost you in the crowd; where are you?" and I told her I was not impressed with her antics and I left because I was embarassed to be seen with them.

Then she replies

movie

3:05am JST Monday 18 August 2003

Just watched a dumb movie with Frank. He loved the movie. This is the second movie that he's loved that I pretty much didn't love. The other one was okay, but not WOW. This one was less than wow. Just a bunch of cats talking. But that's what Frank likes. Talking.

But these cats were all being pretty mean to one another. One plot twist.
