When I woke up this morning, a gigantic fly was flying and it was annoying. Then I thought it better than I transformed into an insect, like Franz Kafka’s story The Metamorphosis. 今朝起きた時、巨大な蠅が飛んでてうるさかった。で、朝目覚めたら、カフカの「変身」みたいに、虫に変身してるよりはマシ。と、思った。 And it reminded me that I made a freestyle haiku last summer. – Fly Flying Annoying ….I think it was master piece. …

All flower shops were closed. I can get floweres from grocery stores and super markets. But, some grocery stores were stop to carry flowers. If I couldn’t have floweres at home, it would be sad. 全ての花屋は閉まってて、花が買えるのは八百屋かスーパーマーケット。でも、いくつかの八百屋は花を置くのをやめている。もし、花が買えなくなったら淋しい。 Usually, ダン蔵 catches a cold this time of year, but this year, he doesn’t have any.
