Lost: One cellphone

I thought was going to be able to post tonight that I had performed the unheard of feat of going out two nights in a row. I almost did it too. The first night I was out to Ikebukero with some friends for an all you can eat all you can drink yakiniku meal. Tonight was supposed to be going out to a night of soccer but somewhere between the 7-Eleven and the station my cell phone fell out of my pocket. I went back to look for it and it wasn't there so I'm hoping that the famed honesty of the Japanese populace holds true for me tomorrow when I go to the local koban (police box.) Anyways at that point I wasn't in the mood to go play soccer any more so I went home. If I do lose the phone then at least I'll have an excuse to go out and buy the new one I've had my eye on for a while.

Another reason why I was not too enthusiastic about going to soccer is because it is freakin cold over here. At least it feels that way anyways. Our house is great but wayyyy to cold. Apparently it's 10 degrees celcius outside but it feels a lot colder. At least it's starting to feel a lot more Christmasy. Speaking of Christmas, if you want to see an amazing Christmas light show then check out this video. It is, in a word, fantabulistic.
