I've had a shaved head for a long time. I feel nothing but benefits from being freed from all the hassle—cutting, washing, drying, styling. If I had to name a downside, it's that I can't shave my head anymore when I need to apologize. I'd rather live my life avoiding apologies altogether.

On my light abstinence, when I limit drinking to once every four days, I get sleepy.

Winter has no four-leaf clovers, so I can run with my head held high without a care. When there are no clouds, it feels like I might get sucked into the sky, and that's a little scary.

I have a habit of jumping when automatic doors don't open immediately.

The wound on my face has completely healed, and my cat has confirmed it. I need to trim his claws.

Suddenly it's gotten cold, and while my cat is constantly curled up in the kotatsu, there are cats out there strolling leisurely about. Are cats weak or strong against the cold?

No matter how many times I reheat my bathwater, it cools down quickly.

Since my stroke, I'd been avoiding long baths, but with the cold weather setting in, I couldn't hold out much longer. Wondering how long exactly counts as a long bath, I ended up soaking for about 30 minutes.

I put chikuwabu into the oden. It was in danger of melting and ending the 23-month streak.

I'm 50 now, but my muscles feel better than they did in my 30s. I think exercising steadily every day is more effective than occasionally pushing myself hard. But my flexibility is hopeless.

I have absolutely no intention of putting up a Christmas tree at home, but whenever I come across something that looks like one while out and about, I stick a star on top. By the time Christmas rolls around, the neighborhood might be full of Christmas trees.

My cat sometimes comes out from under the kotatsu and stretches out its limbs to sleep.

Only one month left this year. December brings extra tasks and errands beyond regular work, so I'll have to power through them. My plan is to intensify my abstinence in the first half of the month, then spend the year-end and New Year's holidays drowning in booze.

I had a solo BBQ on my birthday. It was fun, but cold.

I make a T-shirt printed with my age every birthday because I forget how old I am, but this year I actually remembered. I have to live another 20 years for my cat, so I've still got a long way to go.

This year, I feel like there are fewer acorns than usual. Could that be related to the bears appearing? Before I knew it, the ginkgo leaves at my favorite spot had fallen. Next year's work is already starting. This year is almost over.

The old woman who suddenly came calling said, “I'm here to invite you to a lecture on creating a happy family life.” I think I'm the polar opposite of that.

Back in the day, there was a tofu shop in the neighborhood shopping district. I didn't patronize it that often back then, but I sometimes think that if that shop were still around, my oden life today would be so much richer. Shops that are gone are truly gone forever.

Sometimes I get nostalgic and go visit the apartment I used to live in or the company I used to work for. I suppose even my ordinary days now will become nostalgic someday.

Thanks to quitting alcohol, I've gradually developed a sweet tooth and can even handle fresh cream now. Maybe I'll buy a cake for Christmas. If my taste buds have regressed to childhood, Santa might just pay me a visit.

Yesterday I headed to NHK Hall through Osaka Castle Park, and it seemed like there was a Seikima II concert at Osaka Castle Hall. There were tons of people in cosplay, and all kinds of energy swirling around—it was really interesting.

No matter how old I get, my ideal way of life is to do what I love on my own and keep myself entertained. To an outsider, it might seem lonely, but I think the truly lonely ones are those who can only find their place through connections with others.
