DearScotty

Over the course of my time in Japan I’ve managed to collect quite a few humorous text messages from some of my local acquaintances. I thought I’d share some of them here. I’ll keep the senders’ names anonymous in case any of it comes back to haunt me. This first one comes from a friend I made early on who was expecting to meet me at our town festival:

“I wait for pleasure”

Unfortunately, no pleasure arrived for her. So she responded, “you came?”

I replied that I was on my way and received this in response, “I came :-)”

The following day she sent me a follow up message, “You came, I was glad. I will wait for pleasure tomorrow. :-)”

Once school started we stopped chatting and I ran into her a few times at the grocery store. But last September I received this gem, “By the way, I have 1 news. I have a baby in my body now. It will be born in April of the next year :-)”
