Trying to come up with the words on how describe today is rather pointless. If I just say, "Today was a good day," you'd probably think it was just like any other day. But, if I say, "Today was stupendous!" that sounds weird.
It started yesterday, actually. Kristi was home when I got back from Massena, and I didn't know what to do at first. For a second, I felt like she was invading my home. I've been here alone so much that I've sort of claimed it. But, I got over that pretty quick (luckily) and we soon went into giggly/hysterical mode. That was fun.
I suggested we go for a bike ride, but the tires of both bikes weren't looking too good. Mine was still able to put up a good fight, but her's was too dead for a trip. We tried putting air in it... but we're just girls.
So, I rode, and she walked/jogged. The trip was refreshing, although, it hurt a bit because of all the exercising I've been doing. It makes me feel tough. I was hoping for a letter from someone in particular, but it wasn't there. There was a letter for me though, and the return address was written in Japanese. Who would be sending me mail from Japan? Hiroto? I haven't heard from him in a year, and he usually writes his address in english. So...
I couldn't wait till we got back, so I just opened it there, on the side of the road. It was one small sheet of Tinkerbell stationary, and at the bottom it was signed, "Aika"
Aika? Who is....
AIKA! MITSUI AIKA! FROM MORNING MUSUME!
That was my reaction, and I think I scared Kristi for a second with my outburst. Back when Mitsui wasn't feeling well, and ended up missing concerts, I wrote to her with a "get well" note. I wish I could remember exactly what I said, but it was a long time ago. I'm sure it included encouraging things, and I said something about hoping she isn't under too much pressure, etc.
I knew she probably wouldn't be able to read much of my letter, because the majority of it was in English, although I probably introduced myself using Japanese. I can do that much, at least. I just thought it would be nice to send a feeling. Especially after getting a reply from her, that was almost completely in Japanese, I can fully understand the feeling behind a letter you can't comprehend. The fact that someone will send a note like that, sends more than words ever could.
Although, I didn't need it to be translated to get any more excitement and appreciation from it, someone did explain it to me. I managed to understand all of the hiragana though, which I was pleased with. I just couldn't figure out the kanji.
Here's a picture of Mitsui...
And here is a copy of the letter...

Since this is somewhat of a major occurence, I thought I should share it with the Mitsui fans on Hello!Online. In minutes I became a "hero" on the board. Heh... That's never happened before. People kept asking questions and congratulating me. That was nice...
"Yeah Kami. You're hands down a Mitsuiboard-Hero, First Class."
It was nice to know that she cared that I cared, you know?
Next!
This morning I got a call informing me that I am now an aunt! I guess Erika had a really terrible time last night, and I even felt bad when I went to sleep because I knew at the time she was awake and in awful pain. She had to have a c-section even. Poor girl ... I hope she starts feeling better soon.
This is crazy. I still haven't been able to grasp the idea of my brother being a dad and having a son. We're creating our family.
Other than that, not much has happened today. I drove around viciously in my dad's truck with Luca. We went out to the field to check on his corn. Vrooooom~!
I also made a trip out to Wally World to get Dad's Dad Day stuff. I printed a series of photos for him for the room downstairs. Not to brag, but I think they're impressive. If I had a better connection, I would post the photos here. Perhaps later, when I have hours to spare fighting with this connection.
Put them in simple, black frames so they look snazzy. Even the woman at the checkout desk complimented me on them.
Went for another bike ride today. I noticed the tire starting to fail though, and ended up walking it back. It only took ten minutes though, so that was good. I want to go for a long ride though. I might go down to Brent's and have him fill it up for me.
I walked it back more because it was painful, not so much because of the tire, though. Heh...
I picked up the mail on the trip, and got the letter.
But I'm not going to tell you about it. It's a secret!
Its been a good day! Now, I'm going to go visit Kristi and get in my dose of Old People. Tomorrow is Friday!
