. This game looks interesting: "Escape from the Phone Booth."
I didn't have enough time for lunch so I took a light meal at "Soup Stock Tokyo." They serve various types of soup and simple bread. I ate onion cream today. Since there are many shops in Tokyo, try one when you find it in Tokyo. Ah they have soup wall papers, they are good because soups make us smile always.
National has released a new model of the Horse Riding Exercise Machine "Joba." The exercise level has been increased to a maximum of 120kg. I think this would be good for obesity treatment. I want one too; I will ride it while watching videos.
We had a blog book boom before, and some interesting blogs were published as books. Recently another interesting blog has been published as a book. It's "Katazuke rarenai Onna Damashi." She is single, in her 30s and she calls herself "Makeinu =loser." Most of all she is a "person who can't clean." She didn't clean up her room for over 10 years. But one day she decided to clean up her room. This was the room before she started. Dust, mold, dead insects, living insects, old fashioned clothes, embarrassing posters and pin-ups of idol singers, sake bottles, sometimes she found several types of the same thing (she found a few types of hair remover: sheet, cream, Lazar), etc. The more she cleaned, the more she found old because she could be close to the deep inside of the things. She threw away 112 bags of garbage but she hasn't finished cleaning up. It's okay, her blog was really fun to read.
I am the opposite type, I can't be patient in a crowded room and my family says I am a person who can't keep things. I can count what is in the living room just right now. Sofa, four cushions, table, TV cabinet, TV, DVD, CATV tuner, Floor light, one pot of selloum, that's all. My kitchen is very clean but non functional because I put every tool onto shelves. There is no food, seasoning, pots, pans, tools. Not just that, I hate having too many colors. Especially kitchen items have strong colors usually, so I buy a white sponge, white clothes, white packages of dish soap (of course remove its package). Maybe I am too much too. But I can relax in such a place with less things, less colors.
By the way, I read the best Feng Shui is cleaning; you don't need to do anything special if you clean up the room and change the air often. "Clear Your Clutters with Feng Sui" by Karen Kingston, she said the same thing I think.
That phone booth escape game was fun!

The phone booth game was a lot of fun. Thanks for the link!
I took a long time to escape. Even after I finally finished the puzzle, I kept looking around inside the phone booth for something else to do; for several minutes I didn't realize the door was unlocked ;-)
