1.1 Pick up Aiko and Satoko from the airport I was supposed to drive us to the airport to pick up Risa’s bridesmaids, Satoko and Aiko, but instead I spent the morning throwing up, feeling amazingly sick, not being able to sleep, and trying to stop the room from alternating from spinning to punching to […]
