September 25, 1999- Saturday

What a day. It stormed all night last night, but ended up being really hot. I could hardly sleep at night for all of the noise. I think we had a lucky escape in Tsuruoka. The only damage that affected me was that my bicycle was knocked over and the seat was twisted a bit.

I taught my 8 classes. They were all fun today. One of them though was tinged with sadness as my student is transferring to another school. I'm going to miss him. I barely had time to do anything but teach today.

So the Imoni Party is tomorrow. I told Taeko that I may not go. I just am not in the party mood. I may go, but it isn't all that much fun for me, as not many people remember that I can't speak or understand Japanese. Of course, its a party and they should have fun, but when I can't understand what in the heck is going on, it isn't fun for me either. If it rains they are supposed to come here to have it but Taeko swore to me that it wouldn't rain. (Weather update--it's raining now)

Sadly, our cunning plan to go away for a weekend hasn't worked out. The trip was fully booked. Sigh. I need a break though. And not the Kit Kat kind.

Anyway, I've got to get some rest. Maybe, see you tomorrow?
