Wooohooo! Bump for the late risers 👀 or the draggers of feet who haven’t gotten out the door yet, such as myself.
cloud adder
Bumping the details too in case it gets drowned in november banter: Good morning friends. @worldly elm @near musk and I are planning on doing karaoke in Ebisu tonight at 7pm. We’ll meet in front of the Big Echo at the station and book a room based on the number of people interested for at least a couple hours.

I request that everyone sings the top song off their spotify wrapped
worldly elm
Ok but do the Japanese lyrics also have romaji available? Bc my top song is in Japanese 🫡
near musk
Your phone will have the romanji. Don't think I've ever heard of a Japanese karaoke where they have romanji

I know the words to this song, but I’m 99.9% sure that I’ve misheard several lyrics and would botch it if I attempted to do it from memory lol

Don't worry I'll do the same lame thing and sing with my phone too lol

Is it just drinks? Or do they have light fare as well?
uncut shale
It’s just drinks

Ah ok. I think I’ll pass and just head straight back to the Airbnb after karaoke.

Yeah, I’m not a big drinker and I slept pretty horribly last night. But thanks for checking ❤️
worldly elm
Just a heads up to the peeps who are karaoke-ing—when I got back from being out and about, I noticed my throat was pretty sore. I’m hoping it’s just because I went out without a jacket and the cold air irritated and dried out my throat. I’m keeping an eye on it. I‘ll let ya’ll know by 6:30 if it’s better or not. I want to be careful not to make it worse or get anyone else sick if it turns out to be an actual virus. I just got some meds from the pharmacy. Hopefully I won’t need em, though.
cloud adder
Hmm they only have 6-8 availability
Aww thats a shame 😦

Don’t worry, Covid is fake news

Don’t worry, Covid is fake news
Oh god I reeeeeeeally hope it’s not that. I’ve been careful to wash my hands after touching stuff and mask up in crowded and enclosed areas. I’m also max vaxxed. And flu vaxxed. Pls pray 4 me. I still have a week left here. And there’s horrible construction on the ground floor of where I’m staying, so if I’m sick and have to stay inside…….. 😬 gonna be miserable.

I think I’m ok! It just hurts a little bit when I swallow, but it’s mostly stopped. And I have crunchy dry boogies (tmi, gomenasai), but no sniffles or any other symptoms. I’m pretty sensitive to temp changes and cold air, so it’s more likely that the throat tissue is just irritated. I just get paranoid every time lmao
cloud adder
good to hear! it would be tragic if you got proper sick :/

We order you hot tea at karaoke

I wonder if they have hot choccy? 👀

I’m warming up some milk right now. I also got some lozenges from the pharmacy around the corner. She recommended some to me, plus a proper medicine I can start taking tomorrow if this doesn’t get better.

Pocari is the true solution
You said your throat is hurting right
Does drinking anything make it feel better? Or is it more of an itch
worldly elm
Where is husbando
Back home. He’s not super into traveling and while we love spending time together, we also like doing our own thing. Plus he has a knee injury right now, so all the walking and stairs would be a no-go atm anyway. He said next time he’ll come with 🙂
