feeling: ... listening to: Taro - Danjo
Ok, stuff. My downloads are taking forever and I'm bored.
Was freaked out for a while tonight thinking I'd lost my OSU alumni ring. Found it, though.
Then kept hearing voices screaming outside. Which, considering there are no neighboring houses within sight of ours, is a little disconcerting. Dad is outside investigating as I speak.
Stepping back further, yesterday I finally got FF7: Dirge of Cerberus, which I haven't started yet, and the first volume of the Kimi wa Petto manga. Which still has the STUPIDEST ENGLISH TITLE EVER. Seriously, Tramps Like Us? What were you smoking, TokyoPop? *sigh* I like the manga, though. Feels like it told almost half the story of the live action drama version in just the first volume, so I'm even more interested in reading the rest of it and seeing the differences. So far it's just as cute, and amusing too. And pretty nice art - simple but sophisticated, with an interesting bias toward big pouty lips. Becky wants more.
Also, I've added one more thing to the list of weird foods I've tried thanks to the influence of my weird Japanese TV shows: sea urchin. And... I don't think I'll be ordering it again. Love squid, love octopus, love eel, love frog legs, love several kinds of sashimi... but sea urchin is a little too weird for me. It was cold, so probably raw, and it looks like a formless pile of orange slime but when you pick it up with chopsticks it's actually in strips... and at first it's slightly sweet, then it's salty and seafood-y, then it's bitter, while being weirdly mushy all throughout - soft enough to feel melty, but still solid enough to have to work at swallowing. Strange.
Even dad didn't like it, but he was all amusingly proud of me for being so eager to try something new every time I go anywhere. I love that man. We're father-daughter gourmands.
And uh. Whenever I post here again next time I'll write a review of my most recent J-drama, Sekai no Chuushin de Ai o Sakebu. Meanwhile, trying to decide which series to watch next.
Finally, I need to have enough money to go on BLOOD's next US tour, whenever that will be. February or March again, presumably. It is no longer a question of possibility; it is a necessity. So there's my motivation, I guess.
I'm tired, so that's all.
