  1. It finally feels like winter instead of a very mild fall/autumn. But why the rain to go with the cold?

  2. Glad I didn’t stay up to late to watch that hot mess of a game between Japan and Croatia. A miniscule part of me had hope they would make it to the quarterfinals for the first time but….nope.

  3. Is there an urban dictionary equivalent for Japanese? Or somewhere I can look up Japanese slang easily rather than just googling?

  4. Those of you who had your Japanese MIL stay with you a month post birth, how was the experience (Men or women)? Any anecdotes, advice in how to handle disagreements about baby raising, etc.? I’m going to ask my MIL to stay a week before birth, and the the month post birth with us to help (she offered to help us I just haven’t accepted yet/finalized plans). I know I really would appreciate the help because husband will still be working most of the day (hopefully coming a couple hours earlier), we live in a house, MIL will have her own room to stay in. I’m just worried about living with her for a month because she’s only ever stayed a day or two at ours and I feel exhausted having to be “on” to entertain her in those situations.

  5. First time ordering something online from mercari and i was wondering how i’ll receive the product (a small figurine). Do they just leave it at the mailbox or do they ring our doorbell? Just asking this since I already received the thing where I confirm if I’ve received the product and our mailbox is at the first floor while we live in the seventh floor

  6. The screen on my gas control panel broke —- setting temperature blind now. Anyone happen to know what the ¥damage is likely going to be to get it repaired/replaced?
