AROUND SPOKANE

Escaped cleaning for the meanwhile and caught some dinner with my parents and brother. Of course we headed to the family favorite, buffet. The restaurant of choice was the chinese buffet restaurant up north. After watching my dad eat 80% crab legs, i was busy stuffing myself with misc. chinese food, but it wasnt quite the same, before i could eat plates and plates, but seems like my japanese stomach is catching up to me, i think even my brother and mom ate more than me which is rare.

Spokane is pretty much the same after all these years, minorities being pretty much non-exisistent, but everyone is pretty nice and that is what counts.

OLD STUFF CLEANING

Nothing much going on in the land of Spokane. Woke up and started sorting through all my old stuff from Seattle. Most of the stuff was there from the move, it has been so long that if something is missing i wouldnt really remember it unless it was really important. It was nice of Ace, Ark, Jimmy, Nissa, others, and my family to help move. Usually i am independent and would have done it myself, but my crystal ball didnt anticipate the move. Moving always sucks and i know i have a bunch of shit. Oh well, things happen, so now is the work of sorting through things. Damn i have alot of music cds.

GREYHOUND BABY!

How else to get home but to take the good ole Greyhound bus. Afer a nite of texas hold em poker at nancy's, and breaking even after 2 games, i hitched a ride with jimmy and nissa to ole bus station. Hoping to hop on, to my dismay the counter boy said it was full. 11:30pm, who is gonna take the bus? Looks like it was all of seattle. Anyways, luckily the bus pulled up to the station and i asked him if there was room and there was luckily. So being last on the bus, i knew there wouldnt be any seats left nor did i want to sit next to the bathroom, because damn it stinks back there. Found a nice comfy seat to a nice retired navy lady. She was very nice, and was heading off to montana to see her family. After a ride through the nite, and a little snoozing on the bus i finally reached spokane after about a 5 and half hour ride. It was 5:30am as my dad pulled up to the station to pick me up. Geez, i been traveling alot, taking everything you name it , train, plain, bus, car, etc. It was good to finally be home.

early morning wake up

Morning , well really early morning, woke up around 600am, i guess my time is not really adjusted yet. Just been really lazy the past couple of days, but i like it. I never wake up that early, in fact, i dont like to wake up early, i am more of a nite person. For breakfast had some long waited thai MaMa noodles and of course a nice juicy premium hot dog that was made of chicken, red pepper, and basil. Yum, yum, some things you just cant get in japan. So of course i gotta get my grub in. Later on caught some Olympics on TV, watching the japanese women in volleyball and field hockey. I was cheering them on, i guess i have lived in japan long enough to add a new team to cheer for.
