laurainlimbo at 10:59am on 01/02/2006the last two days I've had trouble getting up - probably because I'm not sleeping well. I can't fall asleep until after midnight, and then wake up suddenly at 2 or 3 a.m. (for no apparent reason). Usually then my cat is awake and wanting attention, so I can't sleep right away, and inevitably I wake up again around 5 or 6, go to the bathroom, and then sleep until 8 or 9. Masahiko's been sleeping late too - guess we are both too inactive these days.
I had to force myself to exercise last night - I was going to do it all day, but kept finding reasons not to. First of all, I was finishing my book (The Bee Season, which I enjoyed, but thought it ended somewhat abruptly, and I found myself wanting more explanation for so many things). then I was making plans for my class at 4 p.m. (this time I had two students - one girl was still sick). so finally around 8, after playing around on my photo program trying to make icons for my journal (none are good), I did 30 minutes of floor exercises. I'm not sure they do any good, except to get me stretching.
I wanted to go for a walk today, but its pissing down rain (and I mean its really heavy - reminds me of Washington rain - steady and very wet). So if I can motivate myself, I'll do yoga and study Japanese.
oh, and on a final note I saw that the nominations were announced for the Academy Awards. I am so so happy for Brokeback Mountain, but so so disappointed that I won't be able to see it by the time the Oscars come around. It has to come to Japan if its nominated for so many awards, but it still might take some time. When I realized that I hadn't seen ANY of the movies up for awards this year, I realized that something is wrong with my life. I thought that living in Japan would be ok since I don't particularly watch American television shows, and I can adjust myself to weather and food. But MOVIES!! I miss movies so much - and realized that they are part of my life - a big part that has been missing for almost a year now!
