Buddy was feeling much better today, but his preschool’s policy says that he can’t come back the next day, so I am bringing him in to work today for a few hours until either Mr. Pikko can take a shift or Grandpa can watch him. Since I had to assume he’d be here for lunch, I decided to pack up the leftover miso soup I made for him yesterday for lunch today. I used a new thermal lunch jar that I got at 20% off at Shirokiya. I bought the green frogs one because it was cute and neutral between genders.
In order to let myself sleep in this morning, I made the frog faces last night, packed the rice and soup up, and put everything in the fridge. All I had to do this morning was add the facial features, parsley, and butterflies and I was done. This took less than 10 minutes including boiling time for the carrots.

Last night I wrote and posted an editorial about the upcoming Final Fantasy XI server merges and the way that Square Enix is handling them. If you’re one of my XI readers, I encourage you to read it and hear what is going on with these merges. It’s what’s been upsetting me so much this past week. Basically, unless I move to another server and leave my friends behind, I will lose the name Pikko that I’ve had since 2003. Of course, the name will live on, but I really wish that I could have retired her on better terms than those presented to me now.
Today’s LOST bento is one that I’m going to be eating at home because this morning, Buddy woke up with croup cough and lethargy, so I stayed home with him. Of course, by 9:30 he was jumping up on and down on the couch asking to watch Finding Nemo. Anyway, it’s the Oceanic Airlines logo made out of cheese, nori, and alphabet pasta. I’ve complained about these bright blue boxes before because I have a hard time with the color, but today it was the perfect color to match this logo.
