Everyday Day

It's been a day of practice.  Just relaxing in the home with Andrew.  Practice, exercise, dinner, perhaps a movie or reading a book.  Just everyday things, but everyday things with another person.  And so it's not quite so everyday.  Dinner is a little different, practice breaks are a little different, even sitting in silence is a little different.  It's amazing the difference that the presence of another person can make.  When I go outside, sometimes I'm surprised that I'm still in Japan.  The world isn't quite the same as it was two weeks ago, even on an everyday sort of day.
