Work, Sleep, Drink, Repeat

Sorry I haven't updated this for a while, but I've had neither the time to write or anything to write about. I've settled into a nice, comfortable routine. What routine, you ask?

Monday:
Get up, jump in my Life Turbo and drive to work. Get there about 7:30, study/drink coffee for half an hour before clocking in. Work until 2, drive home, jump on my bike and ride to school. Learn Japanese for 3 hours, home at 6, make dinner, clean, do some of the stuff I didn't do on the weekend.

Tuesday:
Get up, walk about 15 minutes to the bus stop, ride the bus for an hour or so to go 5 miles, get to work around 8:30. Work until 9, get on the bus, home around 10, go to bed.

Wednesday:
Observe the "union rules" and only work for 8 hours. Do some more of the stuff I put off on the weekend.

Thursday:
See Tuesday.

Friday:
See Monday. After class, eat dinner, head to the bar, drink to much, sleep too little.

Saturday:
Suffer through a hangover. Eat dinner, head back to the bar. Go to the dance club down the street from the bar. Drink too much, sleep too little.

Sunday:
Suffer through a hangover, maybe cook a nice American style breakfast.

So, life hasn't changed too much.

Now, some pictures. I was going to post a picture from the bar, but my computer doesn't like to talk to my Japanese cell phone, so I can't get the pictures off. Here's a picture of another bar, that seems to be closed now.

The other day, my computer told me to back some stuff up, so I went to buy some blank DVDs. I bought these ones, figure I could put the spares around the apartment to throw dodgeballs at.

I saw this sign outside a pachinko parlor as I rode past and thought it was funny. Looks menacing.
