Not Much, How 'bout You?

I did not write this last night as per usual. I went out to eat ramen, and just wanted to sleep when I got back. I have been increasingly tired-the long days are starting to affect me. My back is uncomfortable every evening. I should be stronger than this. The bags under my eyes should be nonexistent-I have been getting a good 7 hours of sleep a night! But we are coming up on the half way point-half way! Hard to believe. I love Japan, I would love to visit and just be on vacation, with multiple days in a row to see things. But I am getting beat down by this work schedule, and the work involved. I got some Japanese energy drinks, so we will see if that helps me get through the daily grind with gusto.
