Our Second Second Anniversary

This title sounds little wired, but today is our second second anniversary.  We got married in Japan on Christmas Eve and it was 2 years ago. 

I don't feel it's still two years, I feel like it's almost 10 years or something.  Adam and I always do a lot of things togeter so that makes me feel like that way.  This anniversary, we don't do anything special, we just celebrate by saying Happy second second anniversary to each other. And that's totally enough for me. 

Speaking of which, we are getting iPhone today as Christmas gift for each other. It is awesome phone (well, everyone knows that!) and we are waiting for Apple store opens at 10:00am. Seems like Adam can't even wait now.  

I am getting white one and he is getting black.  I was going to get black but when we had exactly same phone in Japan, we always took wrong phone to work, so to prevent that happens again I am going with white this time.  White is cute, though. It's more girlish (sorry if you have white already and you are guy).  Anyway, we are so excited!

OKDK, I will update my new phone soon! Maybe from my new phone!

Last shopping day

Today was supposed to be my last shopping day for the year.  But it seems like way too cold to step out from the house. 

We had a nice time last night with our friends.  I always think how nice friends we have around us. Especially, I don't have my family here so it means a lot to me to have good friends who I can totally feel comfortable with.

We went to Pizza Shoppe in Benson last night.  It's our the most favorite pizza restaurant in town and awesome about that shop on Friday is $1.00 PBR.  Well, it's not my favorite beer but Adam can drink that and we can save money.  Not only the $1.00 beer, but their pizza is actually really good.  If you like pizza, this is the place to go.  

We came home after we filled our stomach with good pizza and beer.  Adam made girls Chocolatini and enjoyed our conversations about dog, TV, vacation, and so on. 

We need to start thinking about what we should do on New Year's Eve and New Year's Day.  Luckily, Adam has 4 days off in a row from new year's day so we are thinking to go somewhere but don't know where to.  But at the same time, we are thinking to adopt a dog soon and if that really happened we should be busy with new dog.  We'll find out soon.  

Hope everyone is having good time with family and friends for Christmas. 

本当は今日、今年最後の買い物に行くはずだったんだけどなんだか外はとても寒そうだから

外にはでたくないねぇ。

昨日の夜はうちらの親友と一緒にピザを食べに行って金曜の夜を楽しみました。こっちに家族がいないからいい友達がいるってことは本当にありがたいこと。

昨日はベンソンにあるピザショップっていううちらの一番好きなレストランにいったんだけど、金曜は特にいい。だってPBRっていうビールが$1ドルなんだもん。私はそのビール好きじゃないけど、アダムがそのビール飲めば安くすむし、いいでしょ。ビールだけじゃなくてピザも本当においしい。ピザが好きなら、ぜひそのレストランに行ってみてくださいな。

食べたあとで、家に帰ってアダムが私とジェイミーにチョコレートのマルティーニを作ってくれた。おいしい！調子にのってたくさんおかわりしたら酔ったけど、友達といろんな話をして楽しかったなぁ。

そろそろ大晦日と元旦になにをしようか考えなきゃ。アダムは１日から４日まで連休だからどっか行きたいなぁなんて話してるけどまだどこにいこうかわからない。でも今新しい犬を飼おうとしてるからもしそうなったら犬の世話とかでいろいろ忙しくどっか行くどころじゃなくなりそうだし、ま、なるようになるか。

楽しいクリスマスをお過ごしください！メリークリスマス！

Snow

Freezing, it's freezing outside.  When I woke up this morning, I saw outside through the kitchen window and I was like, NO WAY.

It was white. Really white.  

I hate snow.  Not only because it's so cold, but it's also dangerous. 

But the main reason is cold. 

Although, it's pretty.  Especially this time of the year, there are many houses which put lights on the trees and house, and it is very pretty in the white snow world. 

Hmmm, I have to go to Christmas shopping tomorrow. I've been too lazy and didn't do anything till now. I went big shopping on black Friday, but I bought mostly my stuff. 

No, that's not true, I bought Adam a beer tender which he can serve draft beer at home. 

But he didn't want it and we took it back. So I did do shopping for someone else.

After we took Adam's beer thing back, we decided to not exchange any present this year. 

Sounds bad, huh? Actually, it's not bad. Because we are going to get iPhone together for our Christmas present this year. We will wait till January to get it but I am so excited. 

Hmmm, but what happen to my longest wish list ever? 

Do I still get something from that list? We'll see. 

Hope snow will stop tomorrow so that I can go shopping and do some errands. 

今日は本当に寒い。だって雪が降ったんだもん。けっこう降ったよ、今日は。

あたり一面真っ白だもん！起きて窓の外見たら、え？ってかんじだった。

雪は嫌い。だって寒いもん。それに運転するとき危険だし。今日も滑った。。。

でもこの時期になるといろんな家で外にクリスマスの飾り付けしてるとこがあるから、

そのライトとかはやっぱりきれいだよね、よけいに。

雪の中で光ってるライトの方が何倍もきれい。

明日はクリスマスプレゼントの買い物にいかなきゃ。いままでグータラしてて行かなかった

けど、そろそろ重い腰を上げないと間に合わなくなるしね。。

サンクスギビングの次の日に朝４時から買い物に行ったりしてたけど、買ったものは

ほとんど自分の物だったしなぁ。あ、でもアダムにはちゃんとビアテンダーっていう

ビールサーバーを買ったんだよ！家で生が飲めるっていう代物！

でもそれに使えるビールの種類がアダムが好きじゃないビールだからって結局返品。

そしたらなんだか気合い抜けてもういいやーってなった。。。

二人で話し合った結果、今年はプレゼントの交換はなし！なんかさみしい響きでしょ？

でもそんなこともないんだなぁ、交換はしない代わりに、一緒にiPhoneを買うことにしたの！

実際買うのは１月だけど今からすっごく楽しみ！！！！

でもこないだせっかく作ったちょー長い欲しい物リストはいったいどうなっちゃうんだろう。

ま、期待しないでおこっと。

明日は雪がやんでいい天気になるといいなぁ。

Welcome to my new blog!

I've been thinking to start my new blog but didn't know how, well that's not true, I knew but 

being lazy. But I finally set up the page and started! 

Hope all my friends and family can enjoy visiting here and catch up with my latest update. 

Feel free to leave comments!

I also use Facebook and mixi if you want to check those out. I don't know if I can update lots of pictures on this page but try anyway. 

It's been almost 2 years since I moved into United States in 2007.  Time goes by too fast.

My first 5 months was so slow, because I didn't have any job back then. Now I have a job, this is my second job in the United States, and having busy days. 

We bought a house in June and put some updates such as gardening, painting, fixing, etc....

Those house works keep us busy and I don't have time to watch The Office, my favorite show,

for 5 times a day anymore. 

Today, I came into my store and found out that heater and water wasn't working at all.

Our heating system broke down and all water pipes got frozen. Seriously, it was freezing, I mean, it is freezing right now.  I closed store and now watching heater guy fixing our heater by the fire place.  

Christmas is coming soon.  Are you ready for that yet? I am not. 

I still need to go shopping for presents and stuff. I like going out shopping, but not for this. 

Just too many people everywhere. And too cold to walk around. And windy. Wow, I can list buch of complaining about Nebraska winter up. 

Looks like they fixed heater, it's working now. 

ずっと何か新しいブログでも始めようかなぁなんて思ってたんだけど、どうやって始めたらいいのか分からなかったし、というのは嘘で、ただめんどくさかっただけかな。。。でもやっとこうして始めました。

私の最近の出来事とか、写真を載せていくつもりなので、気軽に読んでくださいな。コメントも残してね！反応がないと寂しいから。。。。

もうすぐアメリカにきて２年かぁ。なんだか時間が経つのは早いね。あっという間！

来たばっかりの初めの５ヶ月なんて仕事もしてなかったし、毎日たいくつだった。。。

でも今は２つ目の仕事に就いて毎日がとても忙しい。。。

６月には家も買って、ガーデニングやら、壁塗りやらっていろいろやることがある。こないだはガレージのドアが壊れて修理したし、家を持つっていろいろお金がかかるのねぇ。

おかげで今じゃ大好きなThe OfficeのDVDも一日まったく見ない日だってあるよ。

変わったなぁ。

今日は店に来たらなんだかすごく寒い。暖房が壊れて水道管が凍っててエスプレッソマシーンが全く動かない。。。。土曜になんだか寒いなぁって思ってたけどまさか壊れてたなんて。

日曜は店休みだからその間に凍ったんだね、きっと。だから今日は店を閉めて修理。

今は暖炉の前のソファに座って修理の人が直してるのを見ながらブログ書いてるところ。

だって私には何もできないしさ。コービーだってつくれないしさ。

もうすぐクリスマスだね。みなさんもう準備はできましたか？わたしはまだまだ。

プレゼントの買い物にいかなきゃいけないし、買い物は好きだけどクリスマスの買い物は嫌い。だってどこにいっても人だし、寒いし。今年はできるだけインターネットで買い物してるよ。ありえないよ、ほんとうに、ネブラスカの冬は寒すぎます。

あ、なんだか暖房が直ったみたい。
