Parties and toilets

Saturday I went to Shiodome,where one can find tall buildings with fine restaurants at the top. It was at this locale where I had my first encounter with an electronic toilet. The seat was heated. I proceeded to do my business. Upon command my derriere was rinsed and dried. There were options for the temperature of the water, whether the stream should be narrow or wide, and whether the areas in the front deserve a rinse as well. The device also had excellent aim. I was shocked and amazed.

After my encounter with the curious loo, I went to my welcoming party. It was a potluck, and some students, already aware of my sweet tooth, brought my favorite Japanese dessert.

After the welcoming party was AgeHa. So much dancing, so many boys, so many gyrating torsos... There were also shows at regular intervals where go-go boys would prance around and find wonderful ways to show everything but their frank and beans. Gah.

The following night I had my second dinner party. There was prosciuto and other meats, a large salad, spaghetti in pesto sauce and prawns, wine galore, and some red bean paste dessert. Yum!
