mind all over the place

[insaneneko]

I so should not be awake now, but the sun shines brightly into my room by 6:30 in the summer...during workdays this is not a problem because I'm awake by then, but on the weekends? I'd like to at least sleep until 8. Is that too much to ask? ;_;

Well, someone on bl_dramas (re?)posted the second Only the Ring Finger Knows cd drama here. Now my summary has something to refer to. ^_^

B-Plot by prillalar, a series of conversations mostly between Momoshiro and Ryoma...well, more like Momoshiro bitching about something or another in regards to Kaidoh. The end is just perfect, too! Go, Fuji-sempai! XD

I kinda feel sorry for Horio. Kinda.

Okay, I'm finally getting excited about my trip. Got my tickets and hotel reservation information in the mail this week, and Pira's been showing such lovely scans of the Loveless shitajiki and stationary she got...I must get my own! I am such a stationary whore collector, I will be getting all that I can from the current running anime such as Loveless and Tsubasa (and I hope xxxHOLIC) as well as any nice manga goods available. I wasn't planning on going to many Animates, but that'll have to change because each store stocks slightly different items. *sighs* And here I thought my time would be focused almost exclusively on manga, books and doujinshi.

I don't know why I keep buying goods, I don't really have the room for the stuff. Even stationary...I don't even write to many people nowadays...but I know I'll still buy two of each set, one to keep and one to use. :P Thanks to that silly habit of mine, I have unopened stationary sets from all the past series I've loved, from Kenshin to Angel Sanctuary. I should go dig them out and admire them, since I don't do anything else with them lately. :P

I was foolishly up late last night and caught that shogi/go program late at night. It's interesting to see one young, fairly cute female pro and one normal but high ranking male pro paired up for shogi and go. I wonder if this is a new phenomenon or did they only capitalize on cute femaleness after Hikago? In any case, the fifth Juudan game (fifth defense of the title against the current Honinbou) was played at the Nihon Kiin. I squealed like a foolish fangirl when I saw the building because it's so familiar looking. :P The disappointing thing is that they didn't play in the Yuugen no Ma and instead played in this rather ugly modern looking room on chairs. The Honinbou looks so like a pro from Hikago. He had disheveled hair, the oddest mustache, and this almost constipated look on his face (well, he was about to start playing, it must have been his "game face"...is the Juudan a 5-game or 7-game series?). The current Juudan looked normal. I again squealed in delight when they nigiri'ed and started playing with that crisp pachi! sound. XD

I fear the number of comments I haven't replied to. It just keeps piling up every day...wish I could just relax and fangirl today, but once again more work! Yay! At least I'm getting paid OT...more money to buy things in Japan with! (If I try really hard to think of it in a positive way will it suck less?)

Working on weekends suck, you're right ^_^

Question for you? IF ever you come across hot dj or stationery or whatever those pencil boards are OF YUKIKAZE (J&R, of course, not the plane ^_~), could you think of me?

I'd pay you back with shipping and stuff, of course :)

[insaneneko.livejournal.com]

Sure, I'll pick something up if I see anything good. I was going to at least peruse for some Yukikaze DJ hoping to find some with gorgeous art. ^_^

[mirichan.livejournal.com]

As I said... something good. Since I can't read Japanese, I don't quite care for DJs where the art sucks ^_^

[insaneneko.livejournal.com]

*laughs* I refuse to buy anything with sucky art anyhow.

wow.... I'm NOT working this weekend and you ARE! Holy turn of events!

But you're right... more work, more overtime, more money, more stationery! heee

HUGS

Yeah, gotta think that one hour of work means x manga or whatever...concrete rewards help. Somewhat.

[mitethe.livejournal.com]

Just think of all the extra cash! BTW, whenabouts will you be flying out?

Thanks for the fic rec, it was great. XD

There was a time (back when I had more space) when I bought Ribon solely for the furoku. Being a packrat and having low resistance to teh shiny is a bad combination. *fondly remembers Hikago obsession* Say, are you watching tennis games, too? XD

(We keep shovelling comments back and forth. *grin*)

[insaneneko.livejournal.com]

Yeah, the money. I gotta think about the money. :P I'm leaving early June...the 8th?

You're welcome. It totally cracked me up, but then I love her writing. You did read her one (and only) TezuRyo fic, right?

I bought a lot of things when I was young and foolish. Now that I'm not as young and slightly less foolish I still buy things I shouldn't, but not quite as much. Except for doujinshi. XD

I actually don't watch tennis. Sorry, real tennis is boring after Viking Horn and Deep Impulse and all those lovely lovely PoT moves...

Actually, I am not much of a sports person in general. No manga is going to change that.

(Yeah, we do. It's kind of scary...)

[mitethe.livejournal.com]

June 8th? So near yet so far. ^_^

Thanks for the reminder - I'd bookmarked and somehow forgotten about it. ^_^; It's lovely and perfectly IC and how I wish all TezuRyo (in whatever language) was like that. *sigh*

Sport is boring to watch, but I don't mind tennis because I watched so much of it on TV as a kid. Those super moves would have really spiced up the Real World version, though. :P

(It is scary...but it's too fun to stop.)
