Snow day

6:08pm JST Saturday 8 January 2011 (day 14899)

Woke up at 4am to get a 4:56am train in Chigasaki to get a 6:45am bus in Shinjuku to Hakuba with Tokyo Snow Club.

Today in Hakuba I chatted with Daniel and Roy at various points, enjoyed an onsen with Roy (who has had, like me, a similarly critical spinal/cranial injury), and chatted with Moses, Shah, and a woman from England who's been here one day, and whose name I've forgotten.

George and Nana got some equipment needed for the sound system while Roy and I went to the onsen.

Back at the venue, a club called Naughty, I set up my massage mat near the door, so I will be able to give massages to people tonight. Awesome! I'm planning to do it for whatever price each person wants to pay, with a suggested price of 1000 yen for 10 minutes.

I just drank some hot cocoa while sitting here next to Nana, with George running around, and Roy, who fears taking buses in Japan, reserving a bus ticket for Daniel, who dreads making phone calls in Japanese.

The only snow I've touched was while tossing a "cold potato" snowball back and forth with Micah, from one of the bands that's playing tonight.

Tomorrow I'll get a 5:30am taxi to Hakuba station for a 6:12am train to Matsumoto station for a 7:59am shinkansen to Hachioji at 10:06, and then normal JR to Yokohama for work.
