Still under kohoku bridge

late dawn JST Saturday 13 May 2006 (day 13198)

(transcribed 2:10pm JST Monday 15 May 2006)

Slept until 1am, peed, slept again and rain (drizzly) started. By dawn, woke up to check stuff and found rain water had encroached both ends of my sleeping mat. Had thought I'd be safe up on the elevated concrete, away from apparent water stains, but turns out the ground (slightly (5 inches) elevated) closer to the river seemed drier. Coin toss said stay put, so I systematically moved my stuff out of the water, then set up my tent and moved into my new home.

Basic plan is to stay here till it stops raining (maybe another night) then head to Kazzah's. For food, I have 350 grams of granola, 330 grams of peanut-choco blobs, 500 ml of veggie-fruit juice, 2 liters of water, 200 grams of dried nuts, choco-chip melon bread, and 5 packets of Pocari Sweat drink mix, good for 1? liter each.

Behind me the downspout splash tells me the bridge is still being drained. I can't really see a drizzle, but it is still bloody cold. Maybe 10-15C and windy.

9am

Just woke up after a few hour nap.

3:17pm 13 May 2006

Still under my bridge in Kohoku, still drizzling, though it slowed at one point, then picked up. My food has been consumed down to 4.75 pocari Sweat packets (4 unmixed), 80 grams of dried nuts. I flossed and brushed and mouthguard in to help deter any further eating.

early dusk 13 May 2006

Still under bridge. Still drizllin'. I imagined making a new marble track, with dates written in fluorescent ink and the marble parking area aesthetically pleasing and easily accessed, circular level installed on day 1, built-in leveling screws, that optimally would be automatic.

Zzz meditation

meditated from 19:00 - 20:00. Super good position where my legs didn't hurt at all. Legs not crossing, but bent in front of me with right toes tucked into left knee bend.

My good 0.5mm pen broke, so I'm not using Kazzah's book to write. this pen is too fat. Though of something else to write, but can't think of it now, it seems. P, then bedtime.

Sounds like it has basically quit raining :-) I would leave now if it were light. Going to sleep again, then go if it's light and not raining.
