It's funny, how these things happen. My mother called today wanting to spend the New Years with us.....around five days too late. I didn't know whether to laugh or cry or just hang up. I told her she'd missed the date and that Minoru was out with her friends anyway, grabbing some freedom days before the next term starts. I hope mother's been eating. But if she's forgotten what day it is, I doubt it. Scientists! Never know what to do with them! Still haven't heard from father. I might just march down to his office and shake him. Or chuck tennis balls at him.

But I've been managing to get some free time, since Minoru's out with friends and filming is on hiatus while everyone returns from holidays. Spent some time with my plants, and I painted some landscapes. I went out to Tokyo street centre and did some paintings of the urban scene and some temples. It was lovely, though I had to ignore the people there, since they wouldn't stand in one place for me!

I had some time to think to myself though, and I've been tossing around ideas for that little miracle of mine. Tell me Echizen, does your father ever enter competitions with magazines and newspapers to win things or go places? Or would you or someone close to you?

He does those stupid store raffles all the time. I have enough consolation tissues to last a lifetime.

And instead of tossing tennis balls that way and wasting them, I'll be back after Australia and you can hit them at someone who hits them back, but better.

Store raffles, huh? Tell me which shop he frequents and I think I could probably get started on that. Because I have an idea. It's a bit crazy and I'm going to need to some help from probably either Atobe or Kamio-kun, but I think it might just work.

Ehh, I have so many tennis balls from fans and sponsors that it wouldn't really be a waste, per say. But why not? A game after you return from Down Under.
