Refuge of a Maladjusted Moose

It was Loks year anniversary of coming to Yosano about a week ago. Mine will be in about a month. I'm not sure if I take any significance from this fact.... don't think we have really celebrated it or anything. But it happened and I suppose I should mark the fact.

Perhaps more importantly it has meant that we got a new table for the sitting room. One of the leaving JETs from the town has kindly gifted us with a spare LARGE kotatsu that she had. So we traded our smaller kotatsu for it. Its great, means that I can sit next to my wife and everything. Unfortunately it claimed FIRST BLOOD the other day. I whacked my pinky toe into it right before a lesson and took a chunk of skin off. I'm not entirely sure how I managed it. I'm normally just left with pain when I kick things. After a few shaky days I thing its starting to get better though, no matter how hard it is to bandage a pinky toe (or how stupid it looks).

In related news the leaving of some JETs means the arrival of others. Fingers crossed this leads to more things to do around town.
