再エネ100％と公正な社会を目指す「ワタシのミライ」が、エネルギー政策に関する意見箱へ意見を送る事を呼び掛けています。（意見募集〆切時期はまだ告知されていないようです。）
私も先ほど投稿しました。原発の停止・廃炉と再生可能エネルギーの促進は、私たちの未来にとって本当に重要です。
政府に再生可能エネルギーへの転換を促しましょう。
と言いつつ、本日の「あったずもな」
伯母が歌舞伎を観る為に東京に遊びに来ました。私の職場の1つが歌舞伎座の近くなので、仕事帰りに歌舞伎を観るのにはとても便利で、最近は毎月（少なくとも市川染五郎が出演するときは！）歌舞伎を観に行くのが定番になりかけています。
今回の演目は、伯母の大好きな 「勧進帳」！夜のもう一つの演目「妹背山婦女庭訓」の方は、何とも悲惨な話でしたが、その日本舞踊を観て以来、一度観てみたかった坂東玉三郎の歌舞伎をやっと観る事が出来たので良かったです。
幕間には、吉兆歌舞伎座店で夕食をとりました。母と私は伯母と一緒に行く日の為に取っておいたので、私たちにとっても吉兆歌舞伎座店での食事はこれが初めてです。とても美味しかったのですが、写真を載せて良いか聞くのは田舎者っぽいかなと思って聞けなかったので、載せる写真がありません。おハイソなところに行くとよくこういう事になります。
翌日は、母と伯母の従妹たちとランチをしました。全員が集まる機会はめったになく（そして何故か私もいつも通りちゃっかり参加）、冠婚葬祭以外で親戚が集まる機会があるのは良いなと思います。

Watashi no Mirai (meaning my future), a project aiming the society with 100% renewable energy and justice, promotes submissions of opinions on Japan’s Strategic Energy Plan. The Agency of Natural Resources and Energy opens the opinion box until the start of public comments (the deadline doesn’t seem to be announced yet).
I just submitted one. Stopping and decommissioning of nuclear power plants and acceleration of renewable energy is really critical for our future.
Let’s encourage government to switch to renewable energy.

Having said that, today’s ‘time for that’
My aunt has come over to Tokyo again, this time to watch kabuki. Since the office I use is near the Kabukiza (main kabuki theatre in Tokyo), it’s nearly becoming a regular to go watch kabuki monthly (at least when Somegoro Ichikawa appears!), as it’s such convenient to watch a stage after work.
This time, the programme included aunt’s favourite, “Kanjincho!” Another programme of the night “Imoseyama Onna Teikin,” was such a dreadful story, but I finally watched Tamasaburo Bando plays kabuki! I wanted to watch one since when I watched his dance (nihon buyo).

We had dinner at the Kabukiza branch of the famous Japanese restaurant Kitcho in between the stages. Mother and I saved this for aunt’s visit, so it was also our first time. It was so tasty, but no photo to upload, since I feared to be regarded as a country bumpkin by asking for photo permission. It occasionally happens when I go somewhere more luxury than I’m used to.
The following day was a lunch gathering with cousins of my mother and aunt. It was a rare occasion that they all got together (and somehow I was also in). It’s really nice to have opportunities to have relatives’ gatherings other than life events.
