The artbook I was bidding on has about 1 day to go and Celga will try to bid for me. Also asked them to bid on a very awesome doujinshi. It's like the Ultimate doujinshi (to me). But since I know that seller accept deputy bids, I'll keep my eye on it too and if Celga gets outbidded I'll use my SMJ account.

I'm in a place called Fic Hell. The plot is sort of there, but my execution of it is so shit.

My back was hurting yesterday when I started moving the wardrobe pieces, but then I spent all day putting everything up and putting the clothes in and somehow it didn't hurt after a while and doesn't hurt now. Weird. Perhaps all I needed was some warming up?

Random, but I was just talking to Crystal about this: if there's something you want me to watch, to get me to fangirl with, don't tell me after you're half way through 30 episodes or when you've finished. Chances are I won't watch it. Tell me after you've seen an episode or two and it seems interesting. I don't like getting into something when everybody else has fangirled each episode as they came out and I'm left to do it all on my own - yeah sure you can still talk to me about it but it's not the same because we aren't waiting for the next bit of the plot together and you can't spoil me etc etc. I'm the kind of person who HATES being late to the party and would rather not go. If you think "I don't know if Pez will like this so I'll watch the whole series first and then decide whether to tell her or not," you're doing it very wrong. (That's why I'm still not done watching Terra E (also the lead character is really boring), not watched Gundam 00 or TTGL. Sorry about that.)

Today's plan is to catch up with my CG downloads and binge on Vampire Knight, before returning to Fic Hell.

Well, I've watched a couple of episodes of Planetes and it looks interesting and a couple of episodes of Macross F and it looks totally wtf but pretty.... XD; But you always seem to be doing Other Stuff anyway... and I barely ever dare rec stuff to people in the first place. D: Which is stupid 'cause it's not like I don't want people to watch with me but. D:

(That said, I sort of feel the same about Code Geass. Well, that and the art totally didn't do it for me.)

Macross reminds me of being a really small kid and wondering why people were all *_* over something called "Macross". But I suppose Macross F is a shiny new series based on the old one?

(Totally not a CLAMP fan either, but the story's good. I like characters that are misguided and evil (as opposed to just misguided). Lulu of CG and Raito of Death Note, that sort... esp. since Lulu Fucks Up Royally later in season 1 of CG. Oh, that was beautiful and so, so special!)

re: Other Stuff - it's just a matter of knowing what's there to do and choosing what to do. Knowing there's a cool anime to watch adds to the choices. I can't choose it if I don't know the choice is there!

But uh, if you want to watch stuff together, it'd probably help if you watch them in the evening rather than daytime, yanno. orz

Yeah, I don't know for sure how it relates to the older series really (since I have not delved far enough into it to start looking everything up) -- think it's all in the same setting but different series at different points in time? Or something. Quick glance at wikipedia seems to back this up.

Yeah I know! But it's like. I feel more in the way if I watch stuff in the evenings if you're trying to watch TV or write or whatever. OKAY I'M BEING STUPID I CAN HEAR MYSELF BEING STUPID OMG. I AM GOING TO GO BEAT MY HEAD AGAINST MY HALF-CONSTRUCTED WARDROBE NOW.

Also, Gundam -- I know I totally should've watched it with you to start with (D:) but you should see 00! And I should see Seed! And we should (re)watch Wing! >_>''''

How long is 00 and when is season 2 starting (if it hasn't yet)?

00 is ... 25 episodes? and s2 is starting this weekend, which means prolly crappy subs by monday and okay ones by the end of the week, or something. XDDD

I haven't seen Gundam00, but I've been considering it. And I'm coming over at the end of the month... Perhaps a wee sample.....? 8)

Ah, yes, Fic Hell. I think we're currently residing there together. Or at least, I know I'm there, anyway. *sighs*

As for the thing about series recs, I know exactly what you mean. I have friends who are really into the major series, but those get so long it feels like it's impossible to catch up with them, so I don't usually bother.

And on an unrelated note, you just reminded me that I am incredibly behind on Vampire Knight. I'll have to fix that soon...

Yeah... I'm particularly sad about Gundam 00. I'd like to watch it but, even with Season 2 coming out and the potential of catching up to start season 2 with everyone else, it just doesn't feel the same. Also I'm a little miffed that hardly any of my friends watched Gundam SEED, which was excellent, but they watch 00 like there has never been any Gundam before. >>

I'm only on episode.... 4 of VK, I think. But it's okay because I've read some of the manga and hardly anybody on my flist is watching it anyway, so there isn't the "missing out on the fangirling" feeling.

Remember! You can always edit out the crap. Don't despair, and good luck~

Nah, he doesn't really get to shag girls, but he just doesn't buy into the whole "coming back to life" business.

Maybe I should kill them both. Then they can woohoo in Hell.

That's one way to do it.

Do they get to woohoo in life, too?
