I was driving the other day and to my surprise found a Denny's. I decided to save the treat and surprise Erik when he came home (he'd been away the last couple weeks). Anyway, we went there hoping to get a breakfast slam and ended up with...Japanese food. Actually Erik ate a Japanese version of a Korean dish, Bibimbop. It had a hamburger with gravy, kimchee, and rice with seaweed sprinkles. I had a baked rice with cream sauce, cheese, and mushrooms dish. Mmmm. They did have french toast on the menu, but it was in the dessert section.
Our fish are very happy with their plastic bonsai, bridge, and lantern. I was going to try a real plant, but got intimidated when I started reading online about the care of aquatic plants. I thought it was funny that the store also had a plastic flower bush with butterflies on it. Guess that's no stranger than putting a bridge and lantern underwater.
This is Ku-man and his family. He lives in a very cute room on my cell phone and he occasionally dances across my screen. He just sent me this picture with his parents in honor of my 200th phone call. Anyway, he sends me text messages every few days and I can text him or change his clothing or the decor of his room. I can put any pictures I've taken in a photo frame hanging in his room. He also has a photo album and takes commemorative photos of places that I have visited. I guess the phone knows what prefecture I'm in, so if I travel to a different prefecture, a photo of someplace from there pops up with him in it. I can record the date and put it in the album. Cool, huh (or silly?).
