today i set my alarm for 5:55 am in order to be awake for and witness the first pitch of baseball's opening day in japan. while my original intent was to watch the whole game, by the fifth inning (about 7:40 am), the game was dragging and my desire to go back to bed was too strong, and i eventually succumbed, only to wake up a few hours later to discover that i'd missed a ninth inning comeback and extra inning victory, and had ultimately watched the wrong half of the game.
