Ow, my tummy!

[melcreada]

Ugh. I had the better part of a bottle of Pinot Noir last night with our pizza and have been feeling oogy all day, in spite of plenty of fluids and ibuprofen. Nothing I can't handle, but my stomach! I have eaten nothing all day except a huge bowl of veggies (my feeble attempt at health).

Am I totally out of the loop? Why does everyone have their Christmas lights up already?! The guys at the end of my street have had theirs up for almost two weeks now! Calm down! We haven't even gotten to Thanksgiving! Why am I shouting at my flist?!

^____^

In other news, I am getting a Christmas bonus (yay) but it will not arrive until the second week of December and I plan on having the bulk of my Christmas shopping done by then. Exactly *how* is still under debate, but I'll figure something out. Maybe.

I have been enjoying my vacay very much, especially since I made the decision to put my nanowrimo story to bed. At 27K words, when I still hadn't gotten to the main plot point, I realized I was just going in circles. I'm a little bummed, but I just need to do a whole lot of nothing for awhile. So far, so good.

JP and I have watched the first season of Ouran Host Club, which is just as funny dubbed as subbed. We also went to see Ashes of Time Redux, which was not so good. Kind of incomprehensible actually. I don't really recommend it as the cinematography isn't all that (the movie is apparently really old and has been "touched up" but not nearly enough IMO) and there are barely any action scenes. All in all, a bit of a confusing bore.

And finally (thanks for staying with me), a random meme! If I had a nickel for every time someone told me I should have been born a Pisces, I'd have like 15 cents or something...

Okay, so Ouran Host Club is good?? Because I've been feeling strangely compelled to watch it for some years now, but I still haven't. I need some more anime in my life!

It's awesome - it pokes fun at a lot of shojo themes (reverse harems, moe, etc) while still being shojo AND having an actual storyline, which is not always the case with comedies.

Very pretty animation to boot...

Ooohh, awesome! I totally need to rent it or something. Oh what the hey - it's anime, I'll just buy it. :)
