Dream psycho

7:10am JST Monday 31 July 2006

Helping Jesse move, I got mad and threw a pen after he asked me to "move it farther over there" I felt bad, and ended up telling the story to Father Paul from UH. Michael walked up to Father Paul at the same time, also to confess something, but he let me go first.

Paul and I walked to his favorite mostly private area, where we could look outside through a set of huge windows. The reflection blocked our view at first, but then by closing the curtains behind us (stepping in front of the curtains), they blocked out the light behind us, so we could see the incredible sunrise over the lake. Paul had some superballs that he bounced playfully while I was talking. They were marble size in (dream) reality, but billiard ball size in the reflection in the window.

Called my new student to see if we could meet at 3pm, with my undertsanding we would also meet up at 7pm for our actual lesson. But the 3 pm was a freebie during which time I was like, "do you want me to make you a website??" and she was like Yes, and then she was like, "no" and changed her mind, and she was like, "I won't be able to meet you at 7pm" and I was shocked that she didn't tell me until the end of our 3pm meeting, and I realized I was shocked only because I had assumed we would meet, and assumed I'd be essentially getting paid for it (at 7) although less money. But now suddenly no money and I realized it wasn't really fair of me to say it was free, and then be upet when she cancelled on something else, making the first part truly free.

She said something about how she thought it would take really long to do the site, but I assured her I could put them together quite quickly; I just needed to confirm what domain she wanted. She said, "I want to combine all my friends' domains" www.rabbit.alt.miyuki.power.c.z.net and I was like, "no way we can get z.net but she didn't undertsand it's just the top two that count, but finally I was like, "let me try it" and we hapened to see a guy who said he had internet access in his office, which turned out to be a little tiny closet next to a womens' clothing shop. I went in first, and Hitomi came a bit later; she had had to go P. And then when she came in, she started typing on my keyboard as I was trying to get set up, and I told her to stop, but she kept typing as if she hadn't heard me, or was just focused on typing one specific password, though she was unable to read the screen to see what she was typing, or even in what window she was typing. I kept telling her to stop, and it got progressivlely more ridiculous that she wouldn't so I grabbed her arm and gouged my fingernail into the inner writst, which she withstood stoicly. Then she whipped out a water balloon and threatened my computer with it. That's why she had gone into the bathroom!

She faked at first, but then I was able to catch it, and I chose not to burst it in the store, so I swallowed it, and then as I choked on it, and she freaked out that I would do such a thing, I spited her and pinched my neck until it popped the balloon and saved myself from choking and dying.

Today

6:30pm JST Monday 31 July 2006

Been chillin' on my computer all day, a lot of that time spent scanning through the listings of four CDs of archives from my machine 3 years ago. Sent them to Fred for safe keeping, and (via gmail) noted that my old Marble Blast levels were on those CDs. Fred still has them, and will restore the data for me shortly. While he's at it, I figured, it would be pretty smart to just get everything I want from those CDs instead of me asking him again later. AND, I was super happy to fid my old old old The Master Genealogist data on the fourth CD. Awesome!!

I put that at a higher priority than the Marble Blast levels; it would be really phat to have that data available.

((Wow. A bunch of non-Japanese speaking girls just got on this train.))

Via some Japanese study .torrent I downloaded, I found a really awesome Japanese study resource, http://coscom.co.jp/, which I scoped for a while and perhaps learned a new word or two. I hope I make a practice of visiting that site regularly.

ayana

6:45pm JST Monday 31 July 2006

I have tried to call Ayana three times since I contacted her last Thursday. At that time she was still at work, so she asked if she could call me back. She hasn't called me back. And hasn't answered my calls. I am 1 phone call away from giving up on her.

lesson

6:54pm JST Monday 31 July 2006

Now in Shibuya to meet Sayuri for our first official lesson.

9:43pm JST Monday 31 July 2006

Lesson was great; basically 2 hours, so we've decided to meet for 2 hours each week. Sayuri is a really good student; she brought material to study (about Mel G getting arrested for drunk driving) and did homework.
