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.

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

Date: 2008-10-02 12:01 pm (UTC)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! >_>''''

Date: 2008-10-02 07:25 pm (UTC)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)

Date: 2008-10-02 09:43 am (UTC)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...
