Hiatus from Reality

This weeks episode deals with Chris, the man without a plan.

Carl a new teacher, did not like Chris very much. He would horse around with him a little harder than he should.

The best fight was one night on Hage Mikes birthday. It was a Saturday night, we finished working around 6pm. We were gonna kick it for a while then go to karaoke. Mike said Yukiko was with a client so she would be late. He showed up with an octopus wrapped in plastic, just like you`d find your hamburger on the shelf at the store.

Hide comes over almost every day after riding the train back from Geos in Yokkaichi, eating dinner with his Dad and watching the baseball recap. Life is pretty good even if the curtain still gaps at the bottom and I still sleep on a matress on the floor. I drink copius amounts of wine by myself and watch Ally McBeal on video tapes rented from the Brazilian store, where you can buy the toughest steak sandwich smothered in fried egg that you have ever tried to chew.

From that day we spent a lot more time together. We planned our izakaya outings together. We pooled our friends. He finally invited me to something I thought was special, he was emceeing at his friends wedding and he asked me to come. I went after work, so I was a little late, but a lot excited. He came to meet me at the train station in Tsu.

You see I only brought two hundred dollars to survive the 3 weeks until I would get paid. 2 weeks I was sick, but I still ate a good 100 dollars worth, and that`s living on the cheap, I think there are a lot of you out there I still owe money to for those izakaya visits, It`s amazing I could gain weight with so little money, so, thanks friends.
