I'm BACK! Mind, stop laughing! Stop grinning! Stop IT! ... ::coughs:: ... I'm happy to... be home. ;) ::falls out chair in hysterics:: ... oh dear...
I think being stuck with only my mind for company for 10 days has only made me come back even more perverse than when I left. ::sweatdrop:: All I know is Ryusuke me is desperate to 'play'. ::laughs:: But then again, I also read that you feel sexier around the time of your period and mine started yesterday. Maybe that's the problem. Ironically it's the male me that's most effected but I never have made much sense. ::still laughing:: Maybe I should be tied up or shoved in a cage at times like this. ;)
I'm got into a Hyper Police mood simply by switchin' on Compy today. Listenin' to the soundtrack. Changed my wallpaper to suit my mood: Lookie!. It sure can't be helpin' me anyway. ;)
Alright, enough enough enough. On to what's been happenin' while I was away. Well, it wasn't exactly the best holiday I've been on, but it sure as hell beat my Madeira holiday my a long shot. Probably cos we kept movin' from place to place so I didn't have too much time to settle and pout. ;)
::suddenly realises she doesn't have anything downloading yet and goes and browses around AnimeSuki.com:: AAAAAHHHHH!!!! NOOOOOOOO!!! ... noooo... ::cries:: So much stuff has been licensed! I mean, yay for being able to buy proper DVDs and good quality and all, but they dub it! :'( I knew a few good ones were licensed before I left: Shaman King, Figure 17, Last Exile and Hikaru no Go. All good stuff! But now they've added Wolf's Rain, Gunparade March, Narue no Sekai, Read or Die TV. But worst of all: DN ANGEL!!! THE HORROR!THE SCUM WHO WILL REMOVE OKIAYU RYOUTAROU'S VOICE! ::cries again:: How can they dare to screw with Dark? ... bad choice of words! ;) ::tries again:: How dare they ruin Dark!? ...not quite as effective, but doesn't lead to misunderstandings. ;) But what really amazes me is they've licensed Boku no Sexual Harassment. Li-chan will like that one. I only have the 1st ep of that and it's raw. Don't remember much of it either. But it's yaoi and that's all Li-chan will need to know. ;)
::sigh:: Back to the holiday: Unlike home where everyone was having a heat wave, we got rain. And wind. And rain. And cold. And rain. Then maybe just clouds. Then more rain. :S So for a cycling holiday, it's amazing how little cycling I actually did: NONE! I did wheel my bike once into a shed, but other than that, I never touched it. :S Each day we did tiny little walks, usually to see stones. Standing stones. Stone circles. Piles of stones (aka cairns). Remains of stone walls. Oh so exciting. I could barely contain myself. Everyday I just leapt out of bed, ready to walk blindly across fields to see big rocks... ::rolls eyes:: oh the wonders of sarcasm.
To make things even better, my tent collapsed (not while I was in it! :P ). I come back, desperate to hide away from the crappy weather and curl up with the stuffed animals I took with me. Then I discover the bloody thing is dead. I have to pack everything up and move into the hostel. Bye bye privacy for the rest of the holiday! :S But least after that, we went to relatively plush hostels complete with electricity and I could charge up my phone. Spent many longs hours playing Snake and Pairs and Bantumi (strategy game that I have completely mastered now, even on the hardest level :S ). Also kept myself occupied with origami. I think I've actually figured out how to make a rabbit out of the rabbit pattern! Yay! Go me! ;) But other than some paper boxes and a star, nothing else survived the trip back. All mooshed! :(
There were a load of foreigners in these hostels. Swiss, Dutch, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese. I have to say, it's an interesting choice for a holiday, coming to the reknowned wet country, to the worst off islands of the west, and not even staying in luxury to make up for the terrible weather. In other words, I've come to the conclusion that all foreigners are crazy. They didn't exactly stop me from thinking otherwise when they go swimming in the sea. It's bloody freezin' just walking out the door, never mind diving off the pier into ice-cold water. All quite crazy. Speaking of swimming, we came across these old folks skinny-dipping on one of our walks to a standing stone. ::shudder:: Not a pretty sight! :S
I had some interesting dreams while I was away, although unfortunately I've forgotten almost all of them. I do remember there was one which was supposed to be some sort of 'big brother/I'm a celebrity, get me out of here' show thing, but it ended up becoming more like a news report as the ppl started getting eaten alive by rampaging dinosaurs. ::laughs evilly:: All reality TV shows should end up something like that. I'd watch 'em then! ;)
There was another one that was to do with Hyper Police. The ending of the series changed (even although I can't remember the proper ending anyway) so that Natsuki died. :'( But then there was a second series. And Natsuki came back to life! :) I just remember the first episode of the 2nd series was mostly 'bout Sakura. She (or rather I, since she is really like me ;) ) must have got divorced... Sakunoshin did marry her eventually, didn't he? Or did they just have 3 kids and say bugger it? ::shrugs:: Can't remember. Either there was a divorce and Sakunoshin got custody of the kids cos they were no where to be seen, or Sakunoshin disappeared with the kids on one of his wanderings and never came back. I really wanna know what he does and where he goes! He has no family, no friends, no job. What the hell does he do all day? Where does he keep buggerin' off to in the series? Ah well, no appreciation for what he has! :P Anyway, Sakura had no family any more. With Natsuki gone, had no reason to stay in the police force. So she joined some mafia like group, probably hoping to attack someone with enough power to give her just that bit more of a tail to make it up to nine (finally!). The 2nd episode was where Natsuki came back. If I remember correctly, she was found by some truck driver in a pile of dead or dying cats. :S After that though, my memory just goes all blurry and I can't remember what happened. :(
I wish I could remember more of my dreams. There were some really good ones! But I never woke up quick enough so I didn't have the sense to note it down inside my mind to be remembered. :(
I'm sure there was more that happened while I was away, but I can't for the life of me remember. Nothing overly interesting springs to mind, so I won't bother trying to hard. I just keep getting images of playing on my phone and doing origami while listening to japanese music. ;)
Now I'm back, I guess I've got work to do, namely website stuff. ::shudder:: If the weather was still nice, I probably wouldn't even be here. I'd be out of my bike, making up for not doing anything while I was away. Amazing! I think I'm losing interest in my computer. Well, losing the will to use my computer. Not the interest. If that makes any sense. ;) I haven't even read all my mail yet, just the ones that looked interesting (then I did my 'I'll reply in a bit' and came here instead). What really surprised me was I got email thingys from FanFiction.net telling me I had reviews! How the hell did they find the stuff I have on there? I haven't visited that site in ages! Don't have a clue what's going on with it any more. I know there have been changes but when I can't concentrate to read more than a few paragraphs of fics, there's no point in going there other than to just depress me. But how the hell... or more to the point: why the hell did they read my stuff? Oh, I'm confused! Never mind!
I know I'm supposed to phone the volunteer place to tell them I'm back so we can organise a date for meeting the person that wants me to do a webpage, but I want to settle in a little first before I do work. I'm not going to be much use to anyone when I have even less concentration than usual!
Well, I guess that's pretty much everything up-to-date, as much as I can think of. ::figits:: ... I want DN Angel! Damn it! I gave the earlier episodes to Li-chan along with my Fruits Basket CDs. ::cries:: I meant to pick them up yesterday, but of course I forgot. She was also going to lend me her Fake manga. But I didn't take that either. I read them while I was there anyway, but I still wanna have plenty of time to enjoy... moments... Leave me be! It's good stuff! :P
::discovers Aone might still be subbing DN Angel:: SUGOI! ::starts downloading the next ep:: Hayaku hayaku! Onegaishimasu! ::figits:: Better go distract myself with some anime before I fall foul to temptation! ;) ... really should be tied up when I'm like this.

::cries:: I'm going away tomorrow morning! :'( With tents and bikes and dog (oh yeah, and my dad's truck, but that's an upside ;) ). ::glomps Compy:: A whole week... or more... I don't actually know... with no computer... no tv... no electricity of any kind. ...nooo... Don't wanna go... I shoulda realised this a lot sooner, but I think I was hoping I'd suddenly beat this M.E. I'm going to be bored out my mind. A few hours a day, I go on the bike (where I go 15 min and stop for 30 to make the next 15 :S ). Maybe go touring the place in the truck and the dog walks... ok, that sounds a lot more than I thought. But that doesn't exactly take all day. That's just the afternoon hours. I can't read. I can't write (typing is easier cos I go at about the same speed as my mind works and I don't need to think about it. I can't type stories either anyway cos that does need thinking :( ). I can't draw without will and inspiration (and that doesn't happen often). All I'll have is the few mangas I've bought (and read several times on previous holidays :S ), audio books (that again I've heard before), all my CDs and tapes (mostly anime/j-pop just cos that's more entertaining :) ...which reminds me, maybe I should make more CDs for going away...). Oh yeah and origami! Can't forget that one. I'll be going through an entire forest with that since that's the most exciting that doesn't cost a bomb with batteries. :S
I can't say I was entirely productive today. Considering I couldn't resist playing more Grand Theft Auto 2. Eh heh... I shouldn't be allowed that game. But it's my last day before I leave Compy. Let me have some fun!
Least I've managed to send some emails and update Anime Shelter. Not that I did everything I wanted to do, but more than I expected and that's the main point.
::clutches computer screen:: WAAAAHHHH!!! Don't wanna go! I'll be so bored and lonely! I'll be a mess by the time I get home. Just as long as I don't end up like I did when I went to Madeira, then I think I can manage... Plus, I'm taking some stuffed toys to keep me company. That should help a little. And if I need something alive, I can always glomp the dog. ;) ... DON'T WANNA GO!
::squirms around in her seat:: Alright, I need the toilet, so I guess that's me leaving. What a wonderful note to end on. ;) ::sniff:: Better have some good anime tonight since it'll be the last anime I watch for over a week... AAAAAHHHHH!!! this is going to be hell! :S Well... Sayonara... I guess... :( ::sniff sniff:: Ja ne, minna!

::bows repeatedly:: Gomen nasai! Gomen nasai! Gomen nasai! I've left so much stuff for tomorrow and there is no way I can possibly do them all. In other words, I can easily see me leaving for holiday without even a note on Anime Shelter. ::sweatdrop:: I wish I had a good excuse but the best I've got is: Grand Theft Auto 2 is bloody addictive! :S I have got somewhere in it though. Got past the 'green' missions for the Zaibatsu, and on to the 'yellow' ones. Done 2 of them already. Go me! Ok, it's a complete waste of my time and nothing gets done, but I can't help it if I get a little... 'carried away'... ;)
I have done some other stuff today! I took the dog out, and I went on my bike. To the usual bit and lay on the grass and listened to the X soundtrack. Haven't listened to that in ages! After a while though, my head got sore (not headache thankfully. I think there was a stone just below the ground where my head was cos after half an hour a little voice in my head went 'ow'. ;) ), so I had to sit up and the wind was cold. :( Had to go home for dinner anyway. What really annoyed me though was on the way back, I was just about to reach the railway crossing when the barriers came down. Me, with my lack of patience, decided to take the long way round. By the time I was reached the road again, I was just in time to see the train go by and the barriers go back up! AAARRGGGGHHHH!!! So I wasted a load of energy and it didn't save a bit of time at all. Had to walk up the hill to my house again. I will cycle it one of these days! I will get enough energy for that eventually! Just not today... :S
I was supposed to take the dog out. My parents are away... somewhere... My dad's probably at his Gaelic class... my mum? not a clue. Oh well. I'm sure the dog's fine anyway. The door is open, so he can wander around the garden fine. Plus I've already fed him and sorted all the dishes. My chores for the day are done! :P
Anyway, I said I'd fill in on what I've been doing lately. Let's see. Wednesday? I was at the Occupational Therapist again. She was saying it was fantastic that I went to that volunteering thingy, even if it was just a one off (which it is most likely going to be, unless they wanna pay me for it ;) ). I guess I should be pleased with myself for doing something, even if I got nothing from it... wait, why should I be pleased? ... oh yeah, the whole 'socialising' thing that everyone likes to make a big deal out of. That's the reason I'm not going back... that and I don't like dealing with 'idiots'. Plus, they probably didn't like having a kid around talking down to them and trying to teach them stuff like it should be the most obvious thing in the world. They'll be glad to be rid of me. ;)
I also talked to her about getting rid of my stupid pills. She's going to have a talk with my phsycologist who I haven't seen for months. She was supposed to be organising an appointment with me. Bet she forgot about me. ;) But I won't get to see her for a while anyway since she's going on holiday the week I get back. I just have to suffer these bloody anti-depressants until then. :S
After that, I went into town and bought myself the Animatrix DVD! YAY! Haven't watched it yet, but I like anything to do with the Matrix. Oh yeah, I got the version that comes with the album as well. Haven't even listened to that yet. ::leaps for the box:: It was an extra ... ::pause while she works this out on her fingers (again):: ... 7 quid, but I saw Juno Reactor among the bands and I had to get it. They did some of the tracks to the Reloaded score and they were fantastic! :D Ok, there went my months pocket money, but least I still have that 10 quid my dad still hasn't given me for the work I did for his logo thing. ::goes to browse around her dad's site to see if he's even using it yet:: It still seems to be partually under construction. ::sweatdrop:: Oh well. Never mind then. :S The weird thing is, he uses 'we' when he's the only one that works for it. ::shrugs::
Anyway, after wonderful shopping (ok, my shopping involves buying what I came for, and fleeing before I end up spending more money or get trapped my humans. I'm not a great fan of spending money, or humans. ;) ) I went to Pan-chan's. :D Now after this point, my memory gets a little fuzzy... stuff happened... then we went round to Saku's. ::sweatdrop:: There's something in there, but it's too hidden in my head to find without killing my head in the process. ;) Saku has a french exchange student staying with her now. Hee hee. I mock! :P She's normal. Too normal! ;) So we probably scared her. Pan-chan with her purple sparkly cowboy hat, Li-chan with a fez and a 'talking' pikachu, and me with the weird hat I brought back from Madeira (multi-coloured with ppl dancing and a little twirly thingy on top), a stuffed mammoth and a red rose (that was once blue ;) ). ::laughs:: Ah scaring humans is a great past-time! :D
Ok, I have decided. This is taking way too long. ::sweatdrop:: And I've got new episodes of Matantei Loki Ragnarok and Ultra Maniac! Both kinda cutesy, but they pull it off with great humour. Plus, with Ragnarok anyway, very unpredictable. I'm outta here. I might write more at some point, but I doubt I'll have time before I'm off on holiday. And I'll have forgotten by the time I get back. :S Just one thing I wanna say: I want an interpreter for my mind! It never tells me a thing! It just does and doesn't tell me why! ::sigh:: And there was so much more I wanted to ramble on. But it's not like any of it's important. And who really cares anyway? Ah, it's after 10pm already. Better be going. I want to watch both animes. :) Ja ne!

SUTEKI! ::big grin, with a little bit of drool ;) :: Li-chan just left, rolling Pan-chan down the hill (she's too dead to get home any other way ;) ). I was showing them the wonder that is DN Angel and Fruits Basket... well, actually I was showing them the wonder that is Dark & Ayame! SUGOI! Naturally Li-chan liked so I lent her some CDs. ;) ... I just hope I can survive without them... well, I'm going on holiday this Sunday anyway, so I won't have a chance to watch them even if I wanted to. :'(
But I need to be really quick here. Really really late for me. Where have I been? Pan-chan's! And Saku's. And then Pan-chan's again! ;) Stayed the night there last night. Was up 'til the small hours of the morning (well, they turned on Li-chan's Gravitation VCDs. Like I could bare to not watch that. I mean this is big screen, fantastic quality [if you don't pay much attention to the subtitles anyway ;) ]). Then we were 'in bed' until 5 pm. But I was awake! I was wondering around. I was reading Fake manga by torchlight until my head hurt, and I was listening to my Porno Graffitti CDs. :) But the others were dead and I got bored after a while and collapsed again anyway. ::sweatdrop::
Ah, shimatta! I really need to go. Tell yah what! I'll fill in the rest of the wonderful ramblings tomorrow. I want to go back to bed again... correction, I want to stay up and watch anime and anime and more anime, preferably bishounen-filled, but my mum will be hissing at me if I'm not off Compy really soon, so I'd best be off. Oyasumi!

Obsessive perfectionists should not be allowed to perform any illegal actions, even if it's just in a computer game. I'm goin' crazy here! Someone shoot me! If the cops catch me one more time just cos they happen to pass by while I steal yet another car, my head's seriously going to explode!
In other words, I've wasted pretty much the entire day playing Grand Theft Auto 2! I know it's possible for me to complete these missions, but it's just to do more than one in a row without getting busted, or blowing up, or drowning, or falling off a large building, or... uurrrggghhhhh!!! ::takes a deep breath:: But I stop for the evening. I need to relax and how better than with anime, ne? But... itchy fingers itchy fingers wanna play wanna play... ::bites fingers off::
I did do something today though! I went to the volunteer thingy. I don't know if I enjoyed it. :S I didn't hate it though which I guess is the most important thing. But I don't know if I'd give up my free time just to go there. I'm not the sort of person that feels good after helping someone I don't even know. After the camping holiday with my parents, I'll be meeting someone else about making the webpage thing. Apparently the guy is extremely excited to have a young person working on the site since it's for some youth organisation. I'll just need to wait to see what happens with that.
::pauses:: Nothing else to say... just wanna play GTA2 again! But must resist! Otherwise all that will be heard from my room is: sound of car. squelch. "SORRY!" car continues. "EEP!" boom. "SORRY!" car moves on. "OOhhhh! Nice car!" screech of brakes. doors opening and shutting. sound of sirens. "CRAP! Oh leave me alone! I'm sorry! I didn't mean it! Just go away! AH NO! You bashed my car! That's it! You pay!" ... BUSTED! ... "AAAARRRGGGGGHHHHH!!!!"
Can I help it if I suck? ;) Ok, I'm just going to ramble here until the Slayers Next episode finishes downloading, then I leave. ::sniff:: It's the last one I can get until the 12th cos I've used up all of my downloads on Streamload (well, I have less than 1MB, but that's pretty much worthless unless there is a tiny MP3 or something lying around). But it has lasted quite a while considering I've been downloading an episode of Slayers each day, just about. Considering it would barely have lasted a week if it had been the high quality stuff that's released these days, me happy! :D I don't care 'bout quality if it's really good stuff, and Slayers most definitely ranks among the 'really good stuff'! ;)
::browses through her random music:: Ah, Blue Gender theme! That was a good anime! And I missed the last episode! GYAH!!! That was just evil! Oh yeah, and I missed the end of Eva and Nadesico, but I've got Nadesico as a fansub anyway and Eva... well, it's not one of my favourites to say the least. But I want Blue Gender back! ...I've forgotten why I missed it though... that was a while ago... I think I was on holiday... last summer maybe? Wow! A whole year? Can't be! Maybe it was the October holiday... ::starts looking through her oldest blogged entries for clues:: Wow! Those were the days! I had just discovered Jubei-chan. I was still more interested in Seki Tomokazu than Okiayu Ryoutarou! Naruto and GetBackers had just come out. Oh yeah and my wonderful idea on a play on Hikaru no Go (aka Xilmin no Freecell ;) ). I should probably be disturbed that I compare times in my life as to what anime developments have accorded... I'm a very sad and lonely person. I'm well aware of that, but the Slayers download finished, so I'm off! :P Mata ne!

Hai, ore tenshi
So, angel
Kami-sama ii ni wa ningyen shasesune wa...
::decides that the singer for Porno Graffitti is even harder to understand than Okiayu Ryoutarou and gives up:: The lyrics I found for this song doesn't even have the words for the bits that are just talking, and those are the best bits! ::sniff:: Well, least I know what some of that means...
Yes, I'm an angel
Yeah, angel
God... human...
But that's as far as my understand goes. :S ::gets annoyed and listens to another song instead:: Ha! I don't have to listen to you if you aren't going to make it easy for me! :P ::starts singing again::
Ore wa otoko dakara
Buki yo wo datte komo arudusa
Ore wa otoko dakara
Daisuki da nante ne o nai
Zutto zutto
Issho ii yo
Zutto zutto
Ummm... "I'm a guy therefore..." Ok, technically not, but half of the time it doesn't matter anyway! :P I'm just happy I can sing along and actually know what I'm singing! :D Ok, I only know that part of it, and the rest is a load of garbage, but that's not the point! :P Really wish I could find the actual lyrics instead of making up appropriate sounds. ;) Wait wait, I know "Always Always, Good together, Always Always". At least, I think that's what that bit means. Not that it matters what I sing anyway. ;)
Alright, I'm done with my wonderful kareoke commentary session. ::sweatdrop:: As to what I've done today...
I did work on Anime Shelter. ::gets out her homemade fans and spins on her twirly seat:: Next Chobits episode is uploaded! The rest of the work however isn't uploaded yet. I've got more things to do before I do stuff on the main site. I would be doing those stuff now only Streamload is refusing to let me move files! >( But there should be an update relatively soon. Hmmm... when I say 'soon', does that really mean the same as everyone else's 'soon'? Or does it really mean 'I will do it sometime in this life time'? ::sigh:: Probably the last one... :S
I got the last episodes of Kamikaze Kaitou Jeanne! Ah, one of the lines stuck with me. "I love myself" ::laughs hysterically:: Maybe Maron really is Saku! ;) Then Fin (aka me [just cos I'm always Saku's sidekick]) starts backing up, doing the "get away from me!" thing. In other words, I was freaked out by the use of the 'L' word! Yup, that's definitely a 'me' trait too! ;) What really cheered me up was Access suddenly seemed to get a bigger role! Yay! He's the best part! Kawaii dark angel! :D
::pause while she walks the dog with her mum::
I've got that volunteer work thing tomorrow. Oh... fun... :S Well, if I'm just gonna refuse if I don't find it fun cos I'm not going to waste my time doing something that I absolutely loathe (yet I still make a webpage, why? ;) ). I also got a phone call from the person organising it a few days ago about this organisation interested in me making a webpage for them. As long as I don't have to come up with the actual design myself, then everything is fine. I'm just pissed off I have to do this for free! Sucks!
Then on Wednesday, I'm off to see my occupational therapist again. I'm going to ask about stopping taking these anti-depressant pills. I hate the bloody things! I was never depressed in the first place! The doctors just ran out of things to give me, so they shove me onto this stuff that made me feel crap to start off with and now makes me feel crap is I stop. I just wanna get it out of my system once and for all and get on with things! I hate having to rely on them. It's not like it keeps my mood good. It just makes me feel terrible if I miss one. I need off them and soon or I might just stop taking them without asking a doctor. I can't stand them! >( Only my mum insists that it made a difference. Apparently she can tell better than I can when I'm feeling good. All I know is I started taking them, threw up for several days until it settled into my system, and now I can't stop. Is it just me, or does that sound like an addiction? I did see this documentary about these ppl who got addicted to anti-depressants. But there is a difference, I can stop. The idea that I won't ever have to experience drug-enduced crap again will keep me going through whatever stuff it might try and throw at me. Of course that all depends on whether my 'wonderful mother' will let me. I suppose she is trying to 'look out for me' or something. But one thing I know: I hate depending on drugs (even when it is prescribed stuff).
What a wonderfully happy topic! I was in a good mood before my mum started talking to me about that too! Stupid 'quality' time that she is always insisting on having with me. And she still doesn't understand what my problems are. Who knows how many times I've been over this: I get headaches a lot. They can come at any time and last for as long as they feel like it. The only difference I can make is by making them worse with bright lights or concentrating. I can't concentrate in the best of times anyway, so I can't read much in one go. Yet when I'm on the computer, things are easier (something to do with using a different part of the brain according to my phsycologist). And naturally there is the lack of energy which can be worse or better than normal for no reason. How many times to I have to explain that to her? It's not like it's complicated!
GAAAHHHH!!! This is why I avoid contact with my family. They bring me down! I need a distraction, and I'm sure anime won't let me down, particularly with Ghost in the Shell - Stand Alone Complex, Wolf's Rain and Slayers Next! :D I go relax now! Ja!

Damn, today was weird... or rather I was weird today. The first sign I had that something wasn't quite right was when I nearly poured pineapple juice into my cereal. Least some little remnant of sanity clicked and went "this ain't right" before I screwed up my breakfast. :S But least that was funny weird. The rest of the weirdness just plain sucked. I kept getting the feeling I was going to throw up. :( Not a clue why. Then just to make things even worse, my 'emotions' (or what pass for them) went all screwy too. Here's a tip: Don't cry with sunglasses on. Everything goes all blurry and it doesn't clear up very well. ;) Least I managed to restrain myself from having a fist fight with the ground. I've come to the comclusion that Akuma and Aoiko were battling it out over supremecy of my mind, and it just happened that the stage for the fight was my stomach (since that's the best I can come up with in the way of an explanation).
Least I got on my bike today. Went to my bit by the arch (which was where the tears randomly appeared). I was going to go see Pan, thinking maybe if I had company it would be a distraction and I would feel better. I got within metres of her house and decided it was a bad idea and ended up at the river instead. I mean who'd want a pathetic creature that doesn't even know what's wrong? :S Although when I got to the river, I remembered why I didn't go there often. Too many ppl, or rather too many scum! Least I had my music so I could blot out the sleazy comments coming from the opposite bank.
But I got a message that really cheered me up. Apparently my ass is hot! ::is still laughing at the comment:: But I put my 'almost' hot-pants in the wash. ::sniff:: I really liked those, my wonderful home-made shorts! ;) The good weather wasn't supposed to come back so quick! I would attack these other cut jeans to make them that short, but I want at least 1 longer pair. Afterall it's not always this warm. :(
Since I was feeling so terrible most of the day, I'm in no mood to do any form of work today. And I've actually watched all the anime I've downloaded! Wow! That took some doing. I would go download more Slayers from Streamload, only the episode on there is dead. The picture gets stuck about 5 minutes into it. So I'm having to download a different version. And it's so much bigger and isn't going to finish today. ::sniff:: I guess I'll just have to wait... :'(
But what will make sure I keep in a good mood is the latest episode of DN Angel! YES! Such a fantastic series... well... maybe I'm not exactly paying that much attention to the plot or anything, but can you blame me? Dark is just so... ::goes off in a daze:: ... ::grudgingly drags herself back to reality::
Ok, I'm just off to waste some time playing Grand Theft Auto 2. Got to get a hang of this whole new area. And try not to steal cars or drive over pedestrians when the cops are around. ;) For some reason they still come after me even when I've yelled sorry a hundred times. They're so mean to me! They must have something against me since they never care when anyone else does it. Spoil sports! :(

I just spent an exhilarating and invigorating afternoon washing stones, a task given only to the laziest and dumbest of perfectionists! ::groans:: Stupid fountain. Tons of algae! :S My mum likes making me do meaningless tasks like that to make her wonderful garden look fantastic. :S I wonder if I can get her to pay me for the work...
I'm here much earlier than usual cos Saku is coming round with her mum for the evening. The parents will likely be drinking and chatting about 'life'. Just as long as they don't get drunk and start singing all the old Burns' tunes like they did last time. My dad even insisted on playing the violin. ::shudder:: Drunk parents are just wrong! While me and Saku will likely be enjoying anime (afterall, that's the most exciting thing I have in my house, cos there ain't nothin' else here!). Well, there is always the chance we could play computer games. Afterall, I do have Abe's Exoddus and I think she'd enjoy driving over the pedestrians in Grand Theft Auto 2 (which I'm overjoyed to say I have reached the 3rd level of! :) ). Of course she gets the control of movement, but least I get control of entering cars and jumping... oh yeah, and shooting too! >D
Well, I can't say there's much else worth mentioning. I let myself sleep in (how kind of me ;) ) so the morning isn't worth mentioning. I watched 1 episode of Gundam Seed at lunch. Good series, but nothing much happened in that episode. I took the dog for a walk... and that's it. Oh the excitement of it all! It's overwhelming!
You're gonna be maybe the one that sets me baby
You're gonna be maybe the one that loves me baby
You're gonna be maybe the one that gets me baby
You're gonna be maybe my whole life now
You're gonna be maybe the one that leads me baby
You're gonna be maybe the one that fits me baby
You're gonna be maybe the one that kissed me baby
You're gonna be maybe my dreams come true
Damn, that's one catchy tune! ::listens to it again:: And it's not Porno Graffitti! That makes a change. Don't know where I got it from. It's from Initial D, something I'm not interested in ('bout cars or something and the animation doesn't exactly look all that great from the images I've seen). But the music from the series I've heard are all fantastic. Another band I really like is Move and they did a lot of themes from it. Techno type stuff. Really neat!
Anyway, my dinner's ready so I'd better be off. ::tears herself away from the song:: Itadakimasu! :)
