Last night I went to my first OS class. It was really exciting. I was so interested in the class and the material that my head hurt afterwards. I’m not sure I’ve ever felt this pumped about a class before.

I’ve decided to stop tracking my meals. With Eriko at the helm of the kitchen, I am comfortable that my meals are nutrious and filling. I can’t remember what she makes most of the time (and usually I can’t pronounce it). Should I gain more time in the future, or a better method for inputting meals, perhaps I will resume.

The ultrasound was conclusive. Eriko and I are having a little baby boy. =)

I’m getting a little overwhelmed with activities lately and as a result, I’m not doing any of them as well as I could be. Japanese, my new position at work, UW, and this diary are all examples of that. I’m going to take a break from the daily reports until I can organize myself better.

A nice, lazy thanksgiving. I got out of bed at 10; Eriko followed about 30 minutes later (she had woken up several hours earlier and eaten, however). We really didn’t do anything outside of the house besides a quick trip (by me) to Safeway for some eggs. Instead, Eriko worked on the baby’s vest and I worked on the computer, read, organized files, and watched TV. We watched “Reading Between The Lions”, which is a very creative reading show (on PBS) that Eriko enjoys. We watched a little of the latest Transformer’s cartoon but I was definitely dissappointed. We also watched Everybody Loves Raymond and Finding Nemo (which was nice, since we had gone to the ice show just two weeks ago). Eriko’s mom called at one point and I answered and had a brief conversation (which was pretty cool). Eriko made Japanese-style waffles (more like pancakes) with a cream sauce for dinner – they were delicious and filling. Eriko’s hungry again and soon we’ll head for bed.
