Woke up late monday morning. I hurried upstairs to catch the end of the World Series. In case you have been living in a cage (or don’t follow baseball very closely) , you know the Red Sox swept the Rockies to win the World Series. I don’t think you can be too upset if you’re a Rockies fan. They were very very fortunate to be where they were. Let’s be serious….you’re the Rockies.
Anyway we had to bring Mitch, our drill designer who spent the week with us cleaning the show, to the airport. We all went along to say farewell and then stopped at some stores to buy more things for Halloween. We got the go ahead from Sekine to dress up for Wednesday’s rehearsal. He passed the message along to the band so hopefully several people will be dressed up tomorrow night. He’s going to judge the best costume and the winner gets a prize. If it’s a prize from Sekine, it should be something really good!
Later that night, we went bowling with some friends in the band. I had a really great time despite my bad game. The chemistry of the group - including the Japanese members - is really great, so I’m happy about that.
I woke up this morning for church. This is only the second time I went in the morning. It’s usually too much for me to wake up in the morning (7:15) but sometimes I just have an urge to go. It must be a combination of being in a really good mood and my disdain for waking up really late in the morning - which I have been doing lately. Don’t get me wrong, I hate waking up. I think having to pull myself out of bed when I’m still tired is one of the worst feelings, but I love getting up early enough that I accomplish most of my work in the morning. For example, after church, I had breakfast (which I rarely get to do), sent some e-mails, did some favors for a few friends that I’ve been putting off, and helped clean the Domehouse.
In ten minutes, we leave for the farm and then are going to an outlet mall - I think they have the impression Americans like to shop a lot. Which is true. I also think they have the impression we can’t go one day without traveling somewhere. Which is not so true. I for one have a lot of stuff I would like to take care of but I cannot when we are always going somewhere. If we were going sight seeing, I would be all for it. But I don’t really have a desire to go to a mall today. Oh well…
’til next time,
