Saturday - Drizzly but warmish


I went to bed at a ridiculous time last night, but woke up around 10 am when my alarm went off. F was still here, he’d made brunch for his mother.  After that, he took her off to the onsen and they were gone for a couple of hours. 


I got dressed and took care of something. When I finished that, I watched the news from early this morning, then turned off the TV. 


F came back fairly soon after that. He offered to take me out for lunch, but only to places that he wanted to go to. He didn’t like any of my suggestions which was sad for me. However, one of the places he suggested was a place I like, so that was good. Actually, I liked both places he wanted to go, I just wasn’t really in the mood for either place. We went over to Jiro. We had to wait for a while to get seated, but when we did, we were able to have a nice meal. We both had the pork saute with garlic oil. During our meal, we decided to go to the Kamo Aquarium afterwards. I did ask for a visit to a nearby store first. 


We did a quick drugstore run and then drove to the aquarium. It was later in the day when we got there, so it wasn’t crowded. We were able to spend quite a bit of time with the jellyfish and the octopuses, so I was happy! I took tons of pictures so if you are interested you can check out my Instagram. I’ll also post a couple of them here!








We left the aquarium just before 5 pm and talked about what to do. We decided to get K a nice bento and then wait for a little for our dinner. We ate lunch quite late after all. 


F got her a nice bento and we took it back to the house. We went in for a while and had a bit of a relaxing time. Finally, F started whining about dinner and how he wanted to have fish for dinner. I wasn’t too impressed if I’m honest. There was a caveat, however, the place he wanted to go is really good, so I decided not to moan about going there.


F phoned and made a reservation and so we went over. We did have to wait a couple of minutes but got shown to our table soon. We looked at the menu and ordered set meals. I had tuna cheek steak and F had a tempura set meal. We shared an order of sashimi that was good too.


I had suggested going somewhere for dessert after our meal, but F wanted to go back to the house to get some medicine. He didn’t really seem to want to go out. I just didn’t want to go back to prison yet. 


We got back to the house and he headed into the house. At no time did he suggest that I wait in the car or say that he’d be out in a couple of minutes, so I just grabbed my jacket and took it back into the house. I knew I wasn’t going out again. F made a half-hearted attempt to say he was going out, but I was done. I didn’t want to talk to him if I’m honest.


A bit later he talked to me and offered me some food!  He’d bought some yakitori when he got K’s bento, so we shared that, and also the ice cream that he’d brought back a couple of days ago. I got my dessert after all. 


We had a quiet evening in. I watched a bit of TV, did some computer stuff and watched a lot of YouTube. I’ve been doing research for my air fryer! And other things too.


So, that’s about it for me. We have no plans for tomorrow. F wants to get a massage, I don’t. I’d like to go shopping or spend some time outside this house. The snow is coming so I’ll be trapped for most of the time and I’ll be expected to shovel snow. I don’t mind it most of the time, but since someone never says thank you, it isn’t my favourite thing.  


Anyway, I want to get out of here so that I can get some sleep. Come back later if you like and hopefully I won’t whine as much!  Until tomorrow….


Oh, before I go, here’s the Advent Calendar picture for today. How about you tell me which is the latest building?!
