Monday - Cloudy and warm, rainy at night
I went downstairs around 8 this morning. I came back upstairs and went back to sleep for a while. F got up soon after and made his mother something for breakfast.
I woke up again later. I started to get dressed and then F came in the room. He suggested going to karaoke again. I checked if he really wanted to do that. I reminded him that it is more my thing than his! He said it was okay and as long as we’re together he’d enjoy it. Okay then. I did suggest that he phone the box and see if we could get a reservation. He agreed and they said if we were there before 12:30 we could get a room.
I finished dressing and went downstairs. I checked the fridge to get an idea of what we need for the house. Then, we were off.
We arrived at the karaoke box, I handed over my membership card and F and I picked what we’d like to have for lunch. F had a kind of ramen and I picked a salmon salad poké bowl. We went to our room. I took my glass of oolong tea, F took his coke and big cup of soft ice cream.
We went into the room and started singing and such right away. Our lunch didn’t take that long to arrive. Mine came first and looked mostly good. The salmon looked a little mushy but tasted okay. It was a salad with raw salmon, avocado cubes, lettuce and dressing on top of rice. However, F started complaining about his ramen. He said that it was sweet and of course, didn’t like it. After he ate his ramen, he started to feel a bit sick. He had a sugar overload. I wasn’t too sympathetic at first. After all, he chose to grab a soda and a huge bowl of ice cream. I chose not to do that. However, he really didn’t feel well. I suggested that he order something to eat that was protein based to balance his blood sugar. He stopped drinking the cola and got himself some tea to drink and we did order a couple of other dishes. After a while he started to feel better, but he didn’t feel like singing anymore. I did offer to leave with him but he said it was okay. He was wondering if he has diabetes but I just think he was overloaded with sugar. He probably should get it checked out though.
I mostly enjoyed our three hours at karaoke. I sang a lot of songs, a lot of old favourites, so it was fun for me. We left on time and F was feeling quite a lot better before we left, so that was good.
We bought went to Yamaya to pick up a few things and then went to the gas station to get some kerosene for the house. We came back to the house for a while and relaxed. F was downstairs for a long time and then came upstairs and had a rest.
A bit before 7 I suggested that he make his mother some dinner, so he went downstairs and did that. Then, it was our turn. F had no ideas tonight about where to go so I suggested Gusto. It’s an okay place and they’ve just added a few things to the menu that looked good.
We drove over to Gusto and went in. We got a table and ordered. F had the spicy chicken and I had mushroom pasta with a salad. I really liked mine. We spent a little too long in Gusto and wouldn’t have time to go over to our usual grocery store. I suggested going to MaxValu next door. We drove over to the store and then F gave me some money.
I went into the store and did the shopping. I’m not a huge fan of MaxValu as it is so big and some of the store doesn’t make sense! I’m not sure why they have the frozen veggies by the entrance. We have to go through the whole store to check out and the veggies might be thawed by the time we’re done!
I checked out and the bill came to 4949! I gave F his 51 yen back but he told me I could keep the change. He’s so generous.
We came back to the house and I put away the groceries. F set up the rice cooker for tomorrow and I think he cleaned the fish grill in the kitchen. He’s the one who uses it, so that’s good too.
I decided to take a shower so grabbed my towels and changed into my pyjamas. I went downstairs and did the shower thing. I came back up to the room and watched an episode of Dick Turpin on Apple TV. Usually I love the Apple TV comedies, but I haven’t really fallen for this one. I think it’s Noel Fielding. There’s only one season of it anyway, so I don’t have that much more to see.
And that’s about it. F didn’t go to bed until a bit late. I should get to bed soon now too. He’s back to work tomorrow and so am I!
Come back later if you like and hear all about my Tuesday. Until tomorrow….
