Setsubun




 節分でございます。私、年男なんですけど、そんな年男が唯一デカい顔できる日がこの節分でございます。

 記念に豆まきぐらいはしようと思ってたのに、そんな東洋の風習は一瞬でボストンの吹雪に吹き飛ばされていきました。あ〜あ、楽器が壊れまくりなので、豆まきでもして厄払いしておきたかったのですが…………

It is the day of Setsubun in Japan and there is a special job for the Men/Women of the Year, that are the ones who were born on the corresponding Chinese Zodiac animal, that is the Man of Ox this year, that is me. We throw soybeans into the house to call for good luck and happiness then throw out from the house to throw away all the evils and sickness and what not. I was going to celebrate the custom but such customs were blown away by the snowstorm in Boston. Oh well.
