Exclusive Insanity

I've been spending some time on the comic lately, since I'd messed up with the times and it didn't update at midnight last night as it was supposed to. I changed the update time to 1:00am, and I've got the second comic up now. I also played around with the calendar features, so I have an archive page now. Of course, it's not like there's much to archive just yet, but that's okay. So, here, if anyone wants to see.

Other than that, not a lot went on yesterday. I talked to V on the phone for a while, and that was fun. Damnit, two weeks is too long... I want to hang out with my friend again.

I can be patient. It'll be worth it.

I posted a rant very late last night, and looking over it now, I realize... wow. I was really in a bitchy mood. Heh. I should just be glad I posted it here and not on the offending community.

Wouldn't *that* stir things up...

I finally managed to get my hands on the song that Nicol is playing on the piano... Yay! It's such a pretty song. I'm enjoying it. Seems very sad, though.

I guess that's understandable.

Now if only I could find Akatsuki no Kuruma...

I have a sore throat now. It was just a cold with a bit of a scratchy throat yesterday and the day before that. It's actually sore now. I'll probably have to skip belly dancing, because the idea of exercise is not appealing.

Margh... oh well...

Maybe I'll just go for the end.

Saw Jeremy last night for a little while, and we watched four more episodes of Gundam Seed. So we've been through the first eight. As of right now, he likes GW better as well, but that might change.

The problem with Gundam Seed is that it introduces too many characters right at the start. It's hard to keep track of them.

Ah well. Such is life.

Well, yesterday the lab seemed to go okay... I got my post-lab report finished right away, which is a good sign. I still haven't finished my assignment for tomorrow... I guess if I can't get it working today, I'll send it in unfinished. At least I might get partial marks.

Maybe I'll ask him about it. I can't seem to figure it out on my own.

Other than that, I worked last night. Fun times. The two ladies who were in before me were complaining about their children - older children, teenaged and college age. They applauded me in my choice of never having them, and thankfully neither one gave me the dreaded "Oh, you'll probably change your mind later on." Actually it was more like, "Never change your mind. You'll regret it."

Heh.

I watched the rest of Gundam Seed.

( Spoilers )

It was a good show. I'm glad I was able to watch it.

I forgot to bring a form in to work yesterday... It had to be in by this morning, so I had to get up early and drive it down there. Bleh.

Oh well...

I downloaded Kyou Kara Maou episode 29, but have yet to watch it. After ice_is_blue made the comment about me being right concerning Wolfram, though, now I want to see it. Hehe.

Sarah colored some of the random pictures Jeremy drew of the AS characters, and I'm going to make banners. I might hold off on putting up the art or banners, though, because some of these characters haven't made an appearance in the comic yet.

And... won't for a while, since it's a weekly comic.

It has to be that way, though - because of mine and Jeremy's schedules, we can only see each other once a week, and he's working on other projects as well, so he usually only has one or two finished comic strips for me. I want to be sure I can keep up with the schedule.

Maybe in April or May, I'll be able to change it to twice weekly, but for now, it'll have to stay as it is.

Thanks again to neko4 for sending me this song! It's a very nice one, and I'm glad to be able to listen to it.

Ask any 4 questions, no matter how personal, private, or random. I have to answer them honestly. In turn you have to post this message in your own lj and you have to answer the questions that are asked of you.

So I suffered something of a minor fiction burnout yesterday... heh. I spent four hours or so reading College Roomies from Hell, which is not as good as it used to be. I liked it when it was all crack, but now it's serious crack and not as good. And it has not one, but TWO love trianges. You guys all know how I feel about love triangles.

Meh. Oh well.

So after that, I decided that before I went to bed, I would watch an episode of Gundam Seed. Just one episode.

One episode that turned into four.

Now, Gundam Seed has a very good plot and appealing characters, and I love the series. But it's also terribly, TERRIBLY sad. More so than Gundam Wing, and that series had its depressing moments too. Any series that's about war is going to be sad, anyway.

It took me at least two hours to get to sleep last night.

I woke up this morning and watched two more episodes. Then found out my sister was on the computer doing homework, so watched another one. Yesterday at this time, I'd watched up to episode 30. I just finished 37 now.

I still have yet to see those three stoners guys who are in the third opening sequence. I have a good idea of who they are, but haven't seen them yet. I think they're in the next episode.

Also noticed that the second little mid-point thing has Kira and Laccus now instead of Athrun and Laccus. Cute!

Also, are we supposed to care about what's happening to Fllay? I wish they'd just kill her off already and get it over with. Why the hell she's lasted this long is beyond me... I can't decide who I hate more, her or La Cruz (or whatever his name is). Someone should just collapse a building on them.

I think I might polish this series off pretty quickly now. It's gotten to the point where I just want to keep watching.

On the other hand, I watched an episode of Gundam Wing before I went to bed, and reflected on how much more that series appeals to me. Don't get me wrong, I love both series, but Wing is just... more appealing to me than Seed. I couldn't say why.

I watched episode 29 of Gundam Seed yesterday. And cried. It was very, very sad.

I'm sure the next episode will be even more sad. Since now it's happened, and other characters will react... Wah...

His last line killed me. Seriously.

But, I recovered. Went online and was saved by webcomics and a chat with Karasu over a Mary-Sue quiz and characters who didn't qualify as Mary-Sues wanting to be the ones wearing the pink shirt with "I am Mary-Sue" on it so they could harass other characters. (don't ask)

Other than that, yesterday was pretty okay. Had lab in the morning, where we did some neat stuff. Then I had to write a report about it, but I got that out of the way fairly quickly. It's all good now!

I still have a pre-lab report for next week, but I can do that later.

I'm... not really sure what to say now. I watched some Gundam Wing last night. That, too, made me feel better. I love GW. It's so wonderful.

Well, the weekend is over, and I'm not really all that sad to see it go. Hey, I worked all weekend - and work sucks.

I did ask for my vacation pay, though - it's been building up for quite some time. I intend to put it in a separate bank account and save it for when I'm done school and can actually use it for a vacation.

I figure it's better to have it collect a bit of interest rather than just sit there.

I watched episode 28 of Gundam Seed yesterday. It was very interesting. I liked the bit at the end with Kira and Athrun. And we say farewell to the first ending theme... Just before they play the new one (ugh).

I don't want to watch 29... I'll continue to whine about it. And if you think THIS is whining, wait until you see me after I *have* watched it.

I have my long day today for school... It's not that bad, though. I don't start until noon anyway. I finish at ten tonight. I also won't be staying up late, since I have an earlier class tomorrow.

Ah well...

Um. I just wrote an entire entry and then deleted it. Gaaaaah.

I'm going to make this short, because now I'm irritated. I got stuff done yesterday. Fanfic, and new project. Both seem to be moving right along. Game Over is being neglected, but I'll get back to it at some point.

Blind Target came in for me at Chapters, and I read it. Very nice artwork. Scary het aside, it's a very pretty manga. I enjoyed it quite a bit.

I'm waiting for three things from Amazon now - but they will be a while, I think. Shipping estimate is Jan 25 - Feb 7. So yeah, I'll be waiting for a bit, but for two manga and a new book to read, I can be patient. It'll be worth it in the end.

I work tomorrow. Not looking forward to it, but it's good that I seem to be scheduled mostly for weekends now, because weekdays are somewhat inconvenient due to my class scheduling.

We'll see about that, I guess.
