Friday - Sunny, then cloudy, and finally rainy

Blooming heck…just had a bit of a quake.  It’s almost 3 am, and Mother Nature is pulling that on us…just not fair.  It wasn’t bad here, but I imagine my friends in Fukushima and Ibaraki aren’t too happy right now.  No tsunami though.

On with my day.  Had a good day really. I overslept terribly, but it didn’t matter that much.  I got up, watched a bit of TV and did a bit of stuff.  In the afternoon I decided to go out. 

I had to go to the post office, so I got on my bike for the first time in months. I discovered that it was put away but not locked up.  It had sat there for a couple of months and wasn’t stolen.  

I went to the post office, mailed my letter and bought a new gotochi card and some stamps for our Postcrossing.  I got some special Yamagata ones, plus some Mickey Mouse and Friends ones.  After the post office, I continued to a convenience store and got a few things for today and tomorrow.

I came home and watched the end of The King’s Speech and waited for my husband to come home.  He was able to come home at a reasonable time tonight. Yay.

We went out to see a movie, and had a quick dinner at the theatre.  F had a huge lunch by the sound of it, and wasn’t hungry, so he had a starter and I had a meal.  We went to see War Horse, which I liked, but found a little manipulative, especially at the end.  

We came home and I watched a lot of TV and F went to bed rather early.  A while ago there was an earthquake, and then another milder one, so hopefully I’ll be able to sleep tonight.  With the anniversary of the big one coming up we’re all a little nervous and Madame Nature is not helping.  Got to go. Night.
