Need to eat something. I don't know if I'm feeling better. I'm scheduled to ride to Shinbashi tonight, which will break me or prove that I'm okay.

I survived Chinese class okay. Just worked on pronunciation. It's hard for me to not think of this as a huge impenetrable language. I'm having the "there's just so much!" feeling.

Tomoko

9:26pm JST Thursday 28 October 2004

Hung out with Tomoko and Sumidasan tonight at The Lion, apparently the oldest beer pub in Tokyo (built in 1930-ish). Chowed bread cheese fondue, roast beef, raw horse meat, raw octopus, and something else or so. The horse was a bit disconcerting; horses are so *big*, but the horse meat slices were so thin and so small...what did they do with the rest of the horse? Is there that much demand that they can slice up horses and not waste a lot of meat? Do they toss the rest in a dog food making machine?

After the Lion, we went to Le Cafe Doutour, a hoity toity cafe in Ginza where I showed them the video I took on Fujiyama. I should prolly put it on my site. We brainstormed stickers for TJ Bike and came up with:

TJ Bike: 全然大変じゃない。

Cool.

We're going to meet on Tuesday so she can take measurements of TJ Bike for making stickers. I'm really thankful for her help on this.

Hitomi texted me a few times during the meal and while I was heading home; I chose not to accept her invitation to hang out with her tomorrow night; I was with her yesterday and I'll see her on Saturday. Tomorrow I just want to sleep cause I've got to get up for OM on Saturday.

Once I (*) got back to Kosugi, I was like, tonight's cool, though so I called her but she didn't answer.

9:51pm

At the (*) above, she called me back, and will call me back once she determines her ride situation.

11:19pm

It was determined that she would be able to come.
