Hot and sunny, rainy at night.
Today was a much better day. I got up a bit late but it was okay. There was news on too, which tickled me. Hurray. I watched what I could of it, then got on with my morning stuff. My tooth/teeth (I think it's more than one :-( bothered me quite a bit so I was a bit worried and loaded up my handbag with tylenol.)
I had a nice lunch at home and then headed off to work. I had three classes today and they all went fairly well. Unfortunately, there was an hour between each one, so I was stuck at the school for all the time. In reality I didn't mind that much because my school was cool. Hurray for air conditioners!
After work I finished up and got hubby to pick me up. I told him about my toothache. I should realize by now that he never picks up on things, I have to tell him when something is wrong. He is going to be busy for the next couple of days so can't take me to the dentist. Sigh.
He wanted to make nameru for our dinner, and that was the stuff he was looking for in the grocery store last night, and didn't find. The reason that he didn't find it there? We bought it in a different store! So, we went to that store tonight, I led him to the area where we got it before, but it was sold out! Oh no. Still, we hacked around the store and got a few things for dinner and ourselves, so it wasn't a wasted trip.
We came home and I made "buta-tama-kimchee". It was a mixture of pork, mild kimchee, tofu and an egg, all stirfried together. F made some noodle dish that is the Japanese version of chap chae. We had that plus some bottled coffee and salad for dinner. It was very good. I even have enough leftover for lunch tomorrow if I want. F did the dishes, although we both did some of the cooking. He was sweet.
We settled in to watch American Idol and it was good. They showed the hometown visits of the final three and they were fun. I already knew who was out today, but hubby didn't know. I think he was sad. Next week we'll get the finale I think. Looking forward to that. I did a bit more crocheting during the show. I miss the two hour episodes they used to put on, I got so much more crocheting done!
Hub wasn't feeling much better tonight, but he at least made an effort to talk to me and spend time with me so I really appreciated it. I know the rainy season is terribly bad for him.
Just found out tonight that I'm off work for the next two days as all three of my classes on Thursday have taken the night off. I'm happy for the time, but my pocketbook is a bit sad!
Anyway, that's it for me for tonight. I'm off work tomorrow and if the weather is okay I'd like to go and mail my niece's birthday present, go to the bank and get my hair cut. Hope I have time to do all of it. Night!

I am dreading having any teeth problems here in Japan - horror stories I heard when I first came here 15 years ago still haunt me, even though I'm sure things are a lot better now! Hope you get sorted soon. xxx
In the last few years I've been to the dentist quite a lot here (sadly) and the dentist my husband likes is okay. I've had a wisdom tooth out and it wasn't bad at all, a few fillings and a crown done. I have a few quibbles with the dentist's style, but....
If you can, ask around. Ask who your friends or family members use. Ask other foreigners....probably the best bet for good dentists.
And, stay tuned for more on my sad dentist saga!!! (not as exciting as it sounds though.)
