Iron

1:47pm JST Wednesday 27 October 2004

Jen suggested that my dizziness was caused by an iron deficiency. I can certainly agree that I hadn't eaten a lot of greens recently; I basically forgot that just eating conveni macaroni and cheese every day was not a "balanced diet," as the cliche goes.

So I rode the green bike (who doesn't yet have a name) to the cheap grocery store and bought broccoli, spinach, mushrooms, and eggs. Cooked three eggs, ate several leaves of spinach (two clumps) and we'll see what happens.

I'm thankful for Jen's free nutritional advice.

Page of links

4:15pm JST Wednesday 27 October 2004

Gus asked me how my website design was going, and asked why it's been taking me so long to finish.

He asked, "is it just a page with a bunch of links?"

It took me a moment to answer.

"Um, no."

movie

8:12pm JST Wednesday 27 October 2004

Going to Kawasaki (by train) to meet Hitomi now. Leaving my computer here. Feeling a bit dizzy. Pooh.

1:38am JST Thursday 28 October 2004

Movie was good. I chowed some chicken on the way there and a small Freshness Burger at Cinecitta. I got bacon omelette burger, which had no beef, so Hitomi gave me most of her burger.

The movie was in Spanish with Japanese subtitles, so I understood the overview and about 1/8th of the dialogue. It made me realize I need to get crackin' on planning my trip if I'm really going to do it.

After the movie, Hitomi and I walked through Azalea, and found the escalators being cleaned.

under construction house with Ikumi

1:41am JST Thursday 28 October 2004

Ikumi and I explored the first and part of the second floor of the house next door. The rooms on the first floor are big.

I wanted to go to the third floor, but it was dark on the way to the steps, with metal ceiling-support poles in the path, so Ikumi didn't want to go. I chose not to go alone.

Afterward, she bounced some ideas about going to the US to get a job in website design as a steppin' stone to get to design in England. For some silly reason, I didn't think to tell her about Dude, but I'll tell her.

Ikumi and Shoko yammered in Japanese about stuff, and I was able to understand about 1/2 of it.

zzz images

3:39am JST Thursday 28 October 2004

I just wrote an image URL snagger that gives me the URL of images on my site for easy input in emacs when I write journal entries for the images. That's how I got the images for today up, and the images from my suit and towel from Oct 23.
