So as I’ve stated earlier, I caught the flu this year. This morning I tried going back to work, only to be told to go back home because I was still contagious. JESUS people, can’t you see I wanted to actually WORK!? It’s one thing to have days off from work, but its another to have days off, but can’t do anything but mope around the house. Its a prison! I mean theres only so much YouTube and Netflix a girl can watch! I even did all my laundry, and cleaned the house…twice!
After I got sent home this morning, I decided to spend the day in nature. I haven’t been to the gym and got a workout in in a long time too, so I was planning on going to the sports park in Kobayashi. Once I got to Kobayashi, I started my workout. The weather looked promising, but had dark clouds rolling in in the distance. THEN, a man came over to talk to me about my jumprope. He asked if he could try it. Of course, I said “yes” (as not to be rude), but then he kept talking to me o_o At this point, we must have been talking for half an hour. AND, at this point it was drizzling. Fast forward to the end of our long conversation, I could only get a few sets in. People must have been looking at me like I was a crazy person because I was wearing a tank top. But then again, it is Japan, anytime I wear a tank top I get looks..even on the hottest of days. After I left the park, I went to the onsen to wash off and relax. It was nice. I think the one I went to in Kobayashi is one of my favorite local ones so far. They have an outside area too. Of course, while I was there, there were a group of older ladies who befriended me mostly because they were wondering what I was doing there on a week day. Talked to them, they were nice. One even gave me a free bath coupon for the next time I go. twas a good day. Back to work tomorrow, FINALLY!…and of course it would be Friday…the Friday before a three day weekend. lesigh
