Frostbite

I did my laundry this morning and had the great opportunity to find out what it's like without a dryer.. IT'S FREAKIN COLD! I had to hang my laundry outside.. wet clothes.. wet hands.. windy.. cold weather.. not a good combination. I did not get frostbite.. but my hand were def pink.

Oh and last night xD LOL somehow my host mom thinks I'm cold all the time, because I don't wear the warm coat thingy that Japanese people wear.. so all last night she kept pointing the heater at me.. it was putting me to sleep while I was doing my homework. And then, I don't know how.. but somehow she knew I didn't soak in the bathtub and she was trying to explain to me that if I don't soak in the tub that I will get cold. (In my head it doesn't compute that way, more hot water equals more cold when I get out) So last night I had to soak in the tub. It felt good because my muscles were sore from last week.

Dinner last night was undestinguishable.. love using big words I can't spell nor say.. I basically mean to say that I had no idea what anything was for dinner last night. We had the usual bowl of rice and miso, this time chunks of tofu in the miso. I can come to appreciate tofu a bit, and with the ammount that this family eats I better. Also, I found out the thing the other day wasn't a radish, we had radish last night and I liked that. I don't know what the thing the other day was though. There was some type of fish in the shape of a meatball. You know how a hotdog is made out of mystery meats? Well this fish ball was like that but with only fish. Then there was some other stuff. It was all really good but if they told me what any of it was I'd prob puke.

Breakfast today was a sunny side up egg :D and toast and jam, apple slices and anther salad. Ick why salad for breakfast I'll never know. I thik I wrote about this before but all bread in Japan is SWEET. Bread is a dessert here. However, there is regular unsugard* bread people use for western style sandwitches. Bread used for toast is like twice the size of American bread. Take two pieces of bread and that's how thick it is! But I greatly appreciated some normal food.. minus the salad.
