Weddings

My wife`s cousin is getting married on Sunday. So, we`ll be getting up at the ass-crack of dawn to drive there. I`m not driving thankfully. We can only afford one of us going. What I mean is that people give money to help the bride and groom recoup the cost and the cousin chose a big fancy hotel to get married in and so we`re paying more than the standard \30,000 and paying \50,000 to them. So I`ll be wandering around Tokyo. Nice.

For those living in Japan

I found an interesting website. www.debito.org  check it out if you haven`t already. Lots of good info about living/surviving in Japan.

Shit

My paycheck this month will be about 190 dollars less than last month for no apparent reason. Fuck. On my way home I brushed/bumped a guy on my bike. He and 2 drunk buddies were spread out across the sidewalk as many Japanese people tend to do. He yelled and I was already pissed. I hit the breaks, he ran up to me.　ぶつかったんだよおめえ。。。すみません as I rolled my I eyes. おせんだようおめえ。。なまえまんだい。。。いらないだろう I said。。。。blablablah and kicked my bike as I rode away.  I wasn`t gonna risk my visa on a drunk asshole. I`m not saying I wasn`t in the wrong..... some fucking people.
