#108

We’re just back from our local shrine (Daikokuten) where we rattled the bell and had some tasty tonjiru, and Denzuin temple, where we stood in line and rang out Sin #108–the last one of the pantheon of human sins and sorrows.
Tod declared #108 as “being mad at you” but I interpreted in a broader sense of “peevish.” Because, really, I know what “being mad at you” is all about. 😉
Afterwards we enjoyed sake and notariety as “local foreigners” before heading home to unleash a light stick on the lawn. (Tie a lightstick to a string, activate it, cut a hole in it, swing it around, enjoy the new constellations.)
Now, there seems to be a coffee in my hand and a movie waiting in the other room. Wow!
Happy New Year.
