LOST

For the last few weeks, Tam and Clayton - my American couple friends that live a town over - and I have been getting together on Thursday nights for dinner and a few episodes of LOST. I didn’t watch much TV outside of the news and Grey’s Anatomy before coming to Japan, so I had actually never seen the show. Tam and Clayton have a bigger place than me and live by our other friends, so I usually go to their apartment, but I invited them over so they could see my apartment (and the new bed!!!) and so I could make din for a change. I’ve only seen the first 8 episodes so far, and I am not as obsessed as some get, but it is pretty good.
Anyways, I just made pasta with pesto for us and it was fun to have friends over, but I thought it was funny that Clayton was so upset that my place is not a dump. He was expecting a hole and was pretty disappointed when the place was, well, nice. I guess may have complained a bit too much about being moved from the larger apartment and having to basically build my place from scratch. I showed them the bath situation before they wrote me off as a complete whiner, but I do have to say that this was a good sign; I think my place has finally come full-circle and is looking (and feeling) pretty cute. I dare say I am starting to get comfy. Eand my house is feeling more like a place to call home.
