• 17:04:12: I made $100 over the past two days cleaning the house. And I just spent 90% of that on the pre-order of Lagann-hen limited edition, heh.
  
• 17:05:04: And I added what I had left to my travel savings, so in the end I'm left with nothing! -_-;
  
• 17:12:07: Speaking of travel savings, right now I have $255 saved up.
  
• 17:13:50: And I have a 10,000 yen bill leftover from my last Japan trip that I'll use for this winter's Japan trip...I'll need more than that though.
  
• 17:17:53: You know, I was surprised to hear that there's actually people out there who overdraw their checking accounts.
  
• 17:18:43: Is it really so hard to keep track of how much money you have?
  
• 17:49:51: Dammit, I made a list last night of how much food I have to live on until mom comes back from Paris.
  
• 17:50:06: And before she left this afternoon, mom had eaten like...half of it.
  
• 17:57:53: Seriously, she ate like three meals' worth of food. :| And all she's going to do for the rest of the day is sleep on a plane.
  
• 18:02:42: And of course after that, she's going to be eating French cuisine for the rest of the week. *jealous*
  
• 18:06:18: Oh well. She'll come back having gained like ten pounds and I'll still be thin and frugal.
  
• 22:40:36: OMFG, I wish I knew sooner that there was so much genderswitch Simon/Nia out there. http://bosso.sub.jp/gurren/ouji/top.htm
  
• 22:41:47: I am SO getting that doujinshi.

08:45 pm - What?

Apparently we're going to Japan for Christmas. o_o



...Well, as long as I get to go again in March.

EDIT: Hmm, maybe I'll be able to see the Macross Frontier movie?

• 06:17:36: Spiral Boy is going on sale as a tankoubon? In January? http://www.kadokawa.co.jp/comic/bk_detail.php?pcd=200909000118
  
• 06:18:17: But hasn't there been only three chapters so far...? And it doesn't say "Volume 1" either...
  
• 06:19:44: The story seems too complicated to be resolved in one book. Don't tell me it's going to be cancelled like Gurren Gakuen-hen...?!
  
• 06:20:47: Are we going to see another Swordmaster Yamato end? D: I hope I'm just reading too much into this...
  
• 06:35:47: 螺旋少年譚が打ち切りになるのか怖くなってきた...まあ、自分はまだ一話しか読んでないから終わりそうなのかどうかはあまり分からないけど。でもほんと「１」が無いのが心配。
  
• 14:33:54: Tiling is FINALLY over, thank god.
  
• 14:34:29: I wouldn't be so pissed about this if it weren't for the fact that it was only after we'd cleaned the whole house that she decided on it.
  
• 14:35:16: Now everything's a mess again so we have to do it all over. GAH.
  
• 14:36:24: But at least now the house will be liveable again.

• 13:53:07: さっきTLの日本人みんな一緒にラピュタ見ていて面白いww
  
• 19:30:58: I'm not sure if this Eventful Demand thing will actually work in bringing the movie to my area...
  
• 19:32:05: ...but at the very least I guess I could just email Viz saying LOOK HOW MANY DEMANDS THIS HAS. Better than nothing, right?
  
• 19:33:31: We at least need it shown SOMEWHERE on the East Coast, dammit. It's not fair that West Coast gets everything. :(
  
• 19:35:08: If it ends up going to New York or something instead, I would be fine with that too. I could at least drive there in one day.
  
• 19:53:21: Not having my own car severely limits my job opportunities. I wish public transportation around here was better. :(
  
• 19:59:30: You'd think there would be more job openings now with the holidays coming up...
  
• 20:21:31: Oh god why are they talking about Twilight on the Nightly News?
  
• 20:21:52: This must be a really slow news day.
  
• 20:29:13: Looks like it all fit onto one CD after all. http://gainax.weblogs.jp/gurrenlagann/2009/11/cd-1fc5.html

If you could spare a second, would you do something for me?


PLEASE CLICK ON THIS.

I don't know if it would do any good, but it's worth a try. Dammit, I want to see this in a theater someday.

EDIT: For the zip code, try 20004. Thanks and sorry for the trouble! >_

• 01:50:58: Latest episode of South Park is about Death By Pee. ...Why does this remind me of the Gurren Lagann Kink Meme.
  
• 03:27:24: Looks like we're not getting a camrip. :/ Oh well. Two more months.
  
• 04:01:12: It annoys me how some people think Nia is a naive pacifist.
  
• 04:02:43: She's idealistic and empathic, sure, but not afraid to get down and dirty when it's necessary.
  
• 04:21:12: 昨日アメリカでも紅蓮篇と螺厳篇が映画館で公開したんだよね。でもサンフラシスコのみ...同じ国なのにまだ遠いすぎる。ぐすん　;_;
  
• 04:22:21: こりゃ映画館で見る機会ないよね、私...
  
• 04:30:13: ガイナックススタッフが来てもいつもカリフォニアにしか来ないし...一回ぐらいこっちにも来て欲しい。
  
• 14:51:39: Dawww July <3 He's really just a little boy, you know. ;__;
  
• 15:00:11: I think Hei sees a lot of himself in Suou. Or at least he ought to, I don't think he's that stupid not to notice all the similarities.
  
• 15:01:34: O-oh snap, I forgot about watching Pokemon today. Sorry, Kirsten! DD:
  
• 15:19:46: Hmm, in the same way that Yin served as sort of a surrogate for Hei's sister, I think July is becoming a surrogate for Suou's brother.
  
• 15:23:22: Creepy Russian serial killer Contractor was voiced by Ueda Yuuji? I thought he sounded familiar!
  
• 15:33:51: /a/'s Darker than BLACK discussions are actually pretty entertaining, at least when not bogged down with shipping.

07:59 pm - More doujinshi!

I got three more doujinshi today, and spent an hour with a big sappy grin on my face. XD By coincidence, all three of them happen to have mid-timeskip Simon/Nia, so I couldn't be happier. ♥

• 00:23:53: http://twitpic.com/py8uu - If you ever have leftover brownie crumbs, don't just throw them away! They make great ice cream toppings.
  
• 00:27:58: Uhhh WTF? http://community.livejournal.com/darker_than/220734.html
  
• 18:06:46: Just watched the camrip of the Evangelion 2.0 movie. Mostly to check out the potential quality of a potential Lagann-hen camrip.
  
• 18:09:05: Anyway, the movie was awesome. Far better than the Eureka Seven movie. I think I enjoyed it more than anything from Eva I've seen before.
  
• 18:10:45: Well, I've only seen bits and pieces of the TV series, manga, and movies. But I never really enjoyed them before like this.
  
• 18:14:10: Shinji really did go Tengen Toppa, heh. And Mari was a fun, badass character, though also really random. Rei saying "poka poka" was cute.
  
• 18:16:30: Also, subtitles were distracting because half the time, they were wrong. But I guess a camrip must be really hard to fansub.
  
• 18:21:25: I liked how theatrical it felt. You know that feeling you get at the end of a good movie, as you're watching the credits? I got that.
  
• 18:21:54: Somehow only makes me even more excited for Lagann-hen.

11:01 pm - Hm.

So I just got an email about this: http://www.alltern8.com/blogger/blog_intro.asp

On one hand: It pays money. For writing about things I'm interested in. Which I already do time to time. Seems pretty easy. Sounds like a good idea. Almost too good.

I'm skeptical. Has anyone ever heard of this site? I sure haven't. I did some quick research and couldn't find any horror stories, but... Should I stay away?

• 03:55:34: I'm enjoying Darker than BLACK 2 so far, but the preview for the OVA also makes me VERY excited. http://www.d-black.net/gallary/pv02.html
  
• 03:58:30: The animation especially looks amazing. Darker than BLACK has always had pretty creative and awesome action scenes.
  
• 04:02:17: I'm torn though. I've never shipped Hei with anyone, but now there's these hints of him with Yin, Misaki, and even Suou.
  
• 04:05:03: For now I'll just keep enjoying his pseudo family dynamic with his new group. I especially love the addition of July.
  
• 04:09:01: Poor July, losing both 11/11 and April. ;__; We didn't get to know the Magician very well though...I thought he would stick around longer.
  
• 04:19:59: You know, Season 1 was pretty hit and miss. Which is why in the end I couldn't bring myself to buy the singles and am waiting for a boxset.
  
• 04:24:38: But Season 2 so far is much more even. Maybe because it's just one storyline. Slice-of-life was great, but in some ways this works better.
  
• 04:27:08: Less 'wacky' humor is a plus too. I would take Norio and his transdaddy over the detective duo anyday.
  
• 04:28:26: But episode 6 had a laugh out loud moment for me. "Mommy, there's a Contractor on our roof!" "Shhh honey, pretend you don't notice." XD
  
• 04:29:33: And then "Gotta follow him in the truck! ...CRAP, I'm wearing it!!" This is the kind of humor I like best in this show.

*sigh* Well, I've fallen waaaaay behind on that monthly fanfic thing I planned out, mostly due to loss of confidence. So now that I'm back trying to finish this chapter of SoPHD first, I need to get some thoughts down about it...

• 04:20:47: Guys officially outnumber the girls on the Lagann-hen DVD cover. I wonder if people will still complain.
  
• 04:22:25: I must say though, Super Tengen Toppa is looking mighty goofy.
  
• 04:25:17: I also must confess: I sorta OT3 Simon/Nia/Boota. I hardly ever OT3, but I can't help it, most Simon/Nia images also have Boota in them.
  
• 18:30:33: How did my post on the Lagann-hen DVD cover turn into a discussion on a character's sexuality? Wonders never cease.

• 04:18:39: Is it really so weird that I'm so "productive" in GL fandom? It's the only fandom that I'm really participating in these days... :/
  
• 04:20:50: I mean, I'm keeping up with Darker than BLACK and FMA, plus watching lots of live action TV, but not much actual fandom activity...
  
• 04:23:38: And it's not like anyone else is translating this stuff, so why not?
  
• 04:29:00: I suppose it counts as studying for the JLPT too. The commentary at least helps with listening comprehension.
  
• 13:35:34: I LOVE THIS SO MUCH http://bit.ly/2xgMch
  
• 13:36:02: I must get a poster of it. 8))))
  
• 13:37:29: I do wonder though, I must have it really easy, with my favorite characters frequently being the main characters. I'm almost always happy.
  
• 18:56:05: Oh man, watching an NHK special about gardens in Kyoto...just hearing birds tweeting in the background made me SO nostalgic for Japan. D:

• 17:41:47: Ugh, just when I thought all the construction in the house was finally over...
  
• 17:42:04: Now my mom wants to change the kitchen and bathroom flooring to tile. -_-
  
• 17:42:37: Our house has been a mess for like half a year now. WHEN WILL IT END?
  
• 17:44:02: Though, I have been having a blast reorganizing all our furniture and books.
  
• 20:16:43: Just finished sorting through all our photo albums. So much nostalgia!
