nekokoban: (the story of the eighth night)
( Jun. 9th, 2008 02:10 pm)
Or at least a bullet-point list! It's been a while, hasn't it!

- First and foremost, CONGRATULATIONS!!! to [livejournal.com profile] coramegan! She r a reel doktur nao, and having known her for ... good crap, eight years now? I am so proud of her. She graduated officially on Saturday, but let's extend the celebration, because she worked hard and SHE MADE IT! Now, everyone hope she doesn't die in the coming year, when they work her to deeeeeath. /o/

- HELLO HELLO HELLO to everyone new who's friended me recently, both from CFUD and not! As you can see, I am hideously, tremendously, and sometimes eloquently boring. I'm sure that, once upon a time, that was not the case; sadly, that time has long passed. I have mostly come to terms with this, and putter in happy obliviousness in my tiny corner of everything. SAY HI OR SOMETHING. :D

- [livejournal.com profile] immashaaark GET♥ Oh man, Shaman King = nostalgia♥

- I love Stephan Moffat. His episodes are always the highlights of the Doctor Who seasons for me. I'm slow and it took me halfway through the second episode to guess about the little girl, but. ♥ SPOILERS.

- I ... ... have given up trying to be on-time and on top of [livejournal.com profile] springkink. I do actually have more finished than I've posted, but my energy levels have been SUPER-LOW lately (I slept ten hours Saturday and still dozed off at [livejournal.com profile] coramegan's party later ;;) so. I still want to write ALL of them, and I will slowly be posting them, but ... I have allowed myself to NOT worry about getting them in on time, just finishing them. I will end up probably just making a big cross-reference post when I have more of them done, rather than individually post them here and spam flists. |D

- Relatedly, if anyone could point me to any good resources about Soujoubou (especially his relation to the Minamoto family), I would appreciate it! [livejournal.com profile] yaoi_challenge's deadline is coming faster than I thought, and I should get cracking on it soonish. >:

- Today is a day of being incredibly braindead, as I meant to be good and go to bed before TOO late -- and then my roommate was all "I'mma take on Persona 3's [January 31st's] boss tonight! :D" and I was like OSNAP, I wanna see! and I stayed up. Only there was [spoiler] and [spoiler] first. And then cutscenes. And then Boss took a long time. And then more dialogue! And more cutscenes! ... and then it was 1:30 and I waved the white flag of surrender and dragged my sorry self to bed instead.

I-I'll just YouTube it later, I guess. ;;

- Non-sequtorially, I have somehow become like a dousing rod for BL yakuza/mafia stories. Seriously. The last five or six I picked up on a whim (because man, I read those like the bad-for-me braincandy that they are 8D) have all been yakuza-related stories. This isn't even going off a summary or a hint from the art, they're just -- yakuza. Or mafia, there were two about the mafia. ... ... I kind of like it, though. Reccomendations plz.

-- And now there are ten minutes left in my lunchbreak, I am. Off to actually finish eating. o/
Being at work when you're still sick is the balls, guys. :( But I've already taken two sick days in the past week, so I can't really justify it, even to myself. >_> H-hopefully things will be slow today, and I won't have to actually. Try to explain things to people, because I'm honestly not sure how coherent I'd sound if I actually try talking. ("It's the thing that ... you know? With stuff. Stuff in it. Wow. --Wait, we weren't talking about that at all? Oh.") I spent most of Sunday in bed, intermittently napping and staring at the computer, except for the dragging myself to the grocery store and having my return bus be twenty minutes late.

(So if rain + sun = the fox is getting married, what is it if there's snow + sun?)

ON THE PLUS SIDE:

I HAVE TACTICS V10. CURSE YOU FOR BEING A BIMONTHLY SERIES, NOW I HAVE TO WAIT ANOTHER YEAR+ TO FIND OUT WHAT HAPPENS NEXT. :( :( :( :( But resolution that leads into more things that might be going wrong and guys, guys, I LOVE MY FANDOM, tiny and quiet and dead as it might be. ♥ I agree that the series could easily end in a volume or two, but if they DON'T explain some things (like whatever it was that Rin and Ibaragi saw in Kantarou that frightened them so much), I will. Throw things. Or something. :|

There's a new Flogging Molly CD! I love Flogging Molly, but I hadn't seen anything new from them since "Within A Mile Of Home" came out, so I stopped checking on whether or not stuff was coming out. But I was in Barnes & Noble on Saturday with the roommate, and on a whim poked through their music section. So far, "Float" is about what I expected -- which is a good thing! -- fun and upbeat and angry without screaming about it. It's helping me keep awake right now, in fact, which I am grateful for. :Db

My mom is awesome. I idly mentioned to her that I needed to buy some stuff, because I was asking her where she did most of her kitchen-shopping (our measuring cups melted! ;o; well, their labels did at any rate) and half an hour later she called back and was like "So I ordered them for you, FEEL BETTER SOON. :|" Which was actually really unexpected since I am now ostensibly a working independant adult and I was sort of under the impression that aside from birthdays, my parents wouldn't be buying me stuff. It's really nice, when you're sick, to have someone who'll take care of something for you, even if it's only tangentially related. ♥

New BPAL! Our order arrived last week, and I was able to sample them before sickness robbed me of the ability to smell. /o/ I really like my gambled-on scent, too, so even better. :Db

ALSO I FELT LIKE WRITING AGAIN. THAT IS AMAZING AND WONDERFUL AND I WAS VERY PLEASED.


So, in spite of the physical cruds? Not a bad week. \o/

ETA HOWEVER: Guys. Seriously.

How hard is it to spell my name right when it is IN MY PROFESSIONAL SIGNITURE. When it is IN THE EMAIL FIELD and IN MY SIGNATURE and ALL MY TIMESTAMPS. How hard is it. :(
