Comments on: Crapola day… http://www.cherryblossomadventures.com/2009/03/03/crapola-day/ An Aussie girl living in Tokyo with her Japanese husband and 2 kids trying to make sense of her crazy yet funny Japanese life...

Good news is they usually only come once in a while and you got yours over with! And as for the hospital bill, that's par for the course. When we were in Canada ds had a rash on his face so we took him to a clinic (we had insurance but had to pay up front first too) $300 freaking dollars for the doctor to see him for two minutes and tell us to buy an over the counter med!!!! So, "$250 with needles sounds pretty good to me :) You don't realize how expensive medical care is til you don't have insurance coverage (is it universal healthcare in Australia too?) Anyways, off topic, I do hope your dinner went well and that you're having a good weekend. Also, glad that the spider bit Shun now rather than right before your wedding :) "Always look on the bright side of life *whistle whistle whistle whistle*" Sorry to hear about your crap day.

I had to laugh at the "shiny" "shiny", I guess your brought on the bling of clean, eh? I hope you self-indulged into a decedent piece of Ganache layered over come choco cake, or had a nib here and there and soaked into a blissful bath. The spider, foot story... totally freaked me out.. I am afraid of all-things-bug like. Hope you are having a sunnier day today my friend.

I hate spiders, just the idea of being bitten by one scares me. I'm glad he's feeling better. I hope tomorrow is less stressful ... just think, the week is almost over, only Thursday and Friday left to go! :D Wow, what a crap day!

If that had happened while we home Granny K would have fluffed off the spider explanation and blamed big exploding foot syndrome on too much bread and potatoes and not enough rice and daikon. Glad he is feeling a bit better. I am amazed you still managed to get into work by 8am. What a legend after such a hectic morning. Shame on your dad for organizing a dinner that he wasn't going to help do anything for. What you needed after yesterday was fish n chips on the living room floor and a big glass of wine (or three or six). Reading the comment about the shiny kitchen bench made me cringe - oh dear, starting to see myself in thirty years. LOVE having nice shiny bench :) Hope the rest of the week is an improvement. Not long to go. Hugs. What a truely ‘Australian experience’ for Shun to write home about, albeit a painful one.

I'm sorry! I was there, too. I got rejected from a job I wanted and I got my first-ever speeding ticket, which made me late to my class at the gym. So we can recover together--we're both in for good days tomorrow! That does sound stressful and sucky. I’m sorry! I was there, too.
