 It was a rainy day, rather cool.

My train delayed again.

I bought lunch on my way to the office.  I chose ginger pork.

There was a quick meeting this morning. It was an announcement of one of the staff leaving which was very surprising. He joined at the same time with me. 

I took 30 minutes off in the evening and headed for Otemachi to see the reading play with my friend. It started from 7PM and ended a little bit after 9 PM.  There were four stories played by voice actors and actresses. It was interesting

On my way back I happened to see my boss.  There was an emergency call from the USA.  I had to contact here and there.

It was another long day.

It was cloudy and became rainy.

Usually, I buy lunch at a convenience store on my way to the office, but today I tried a lunch box sold at an Italian restaurant on my way to the office when it is raining. There are about 7 different dishes and costs yen 550 which is rather cheaper compared to other boxed lunch sold at other places. I chose grilled fish for the main dish. There was a fried chicken inside too. I am going to try others tomorrow.

There was a meeting in the afternoon, and it lasted for longer than I expected. I overworked till 20:30 and came home around 22:30.

On my way home I listened to the YouTube festival about writers.

While I was watching a TV program, I was surprised to see there are people who have had surgery to take out hand veins.
