Saturday - Sunny and warmish
I stayed up a bit later than my usual late yesterday, so I slept a bit late. I was rather surprised. F tried to wake me up in a friendly way, but it didn’t work. I finally opened my eyes around 9:30 and was shocked that it was so late! F was newly back from taking his mother to Day Service. We had a bit of snuggle time while we both snoozed a bit.
I dragged myself out of bed a bit later and got dressed. As we planned, we left the house around 11 am and arrived at the restaurant in good time. F wanted to try the restaurant as a possible place to take my sister and her husband. I don’t think it’ll work for my sister, but that’s okay. We both had the lunch special which was a mini-sukiyaki lunch. It was quite good. It seems like the restaurant is a one-man place. We were the only customers but the food was good, so I’m not sure why.
After lunch, we went to Starbucks and had coffee. F had a regular drip coffee and I had a decaf iced coffee. It was one of the cold coffee brews of the day, and for some reason, they charged me extra for it. I was not too happy about that! We spent about an hour at the coffee shop and it was nice. It started to get busy and we were finished our drinks so it worked out.
We drove back to the house and picked up the empty kerosene tanks. We drove off to the gas station and F filled them up. Then, we made a stop at Gyomu Supa. I bought some things for the next few weeks there. I got some potato salad, some baby cheese, frozen puff pasty and tortillas, and some sunflower seeds. I’m sure there were other things too! We brought it all back to the house and F put the tanks away and I did the shopping.
I went upstairs and put on my hot water and just relaxed for a bit. F didn’t have any ideas for afternoon things. We also had to wait for his mother to come back. F made his mother some dinner and then he came back upstairs to talk to me.
We had planned to go to the late show of Wicked but F said to me that his neck was bad and he didn’t want to go. I said that it was okay, but I’d ask him to take me to Machi-ne Kinema in Tsuruoka instead and he could just drop me off. Then he said that he’d come with me after all! I didn’t mean to be mean to him, but I really wanted to go to a movie tonight.
We left the house around 7 pm and drove out to the mall. We parked in a good spot and went in and bought our tickets. Then, we went to the bibinba place and ordered our bibinba and drink. The drinks were free with our movie tickets. Yay!
The bibinba were good. F had the onion-salt-pork one and I had a cheese bibinba. We liked both of them I think. F does this thing where he doesn’t want to get to the cinema early so I was a tad frustrated with him. Finally, about 15 minutes before the movie I told him I was going!
We went to the cinema and F bought us popcorn and drinks. I sent him to deliver the concession goods to our seats and I went to the washroom!
The movie was great. I had heard it was good, but I’ve never been interested in the stage version so didn’t have much idea how it would go. I really liked it a lot. F enjoyed it too. It didn’t feel like a 3-hour movie! I will look forward to the next part when it comes here.
After the movie, we walked back to the car and drove back to Tsuruoka. We didn’t go anywhere else, just back to the house. F went upstairs first, and I followed him a few minutes later. He’s in bed now I’m still doing the blogging thing.
I have no idea what we’ll get up to tomorrow besides the usual grocery shopping. Come back later if you like and hear all about my day. Until tomorrow…
