NO, Thank You!
Mio singing is always my favorite. But still, not as good as the previous ending.
Local Comic Shop
It takes me to the future.
I just finished reading the first volume of Bakuman. It’s not due out for another month.
Thank Kami-sama for the local comic shop. They don’t care too much about manga, but know that it has its readership so they just plop all the manga they get out. They usually have titles available a month or so before they should really ship. Pick it up and read it. You’ll be ahead of the class.
Back to Bakuman, which I liked. The story starts with two junior high students who befriend over manga. The smart guy, the instigator, wants to become a manga-ka. He finds the artist’s notebook and attempts to convince him to be his partner. There is a girl whom the artist has a crush on, and in convenient fashion, he’s proposing to her and blurting out his plans to be a manga-ka. The story reminds me a lot of Ichigo 100% without the panty flashes. I’m digging it a lot.
I’m on the look out for he next volume, which should’ve been at my local comic shop back in February!
Costs of cars adds up
I washed both cars this weekend.
Two of them.
But really, I wanted to detail them. Wash, clean, wax, shine. Both of them. But I have no inclination of doing a full detail, because the time spent is best used for sitting around the house and watching television.
In reality, owning two cars sucks. Owning one is terrible, but two is triply terrible. You have two too many things to worry about.
How are the tires on the car? How are the tires for both? Do they need to be replaced? What kind and how much?
How does the engine run? Is it service time already? What’s that squeaking when I brake? Why is the engine idling rough? What and how much?
It is a pain. On my wallet. On my time. On my peace of mind.
Happy 4th!
Independence Day! No more kings!
Except with the way we’re being ruled it feels as if a king would be much better. Fools all over the place.
No more kings!
Makes you go hmm. Take 23498
Why is it that the only vampire novels I have read are translated from Russian or Swedish? I hate vampires and vampire tales, so why did I/am I reading translated works of vampire lore? And is there a Japanese vampire novel that I should read?
Expelliarmus!
The trailer for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows has been posted at Yahoo. You can find it better somewhere else, but boy, oh boy am I psyched!
I wonder how much the movie is going to hew closely to the book? Hopefully, not as disappointing as the last movie. Considering it’s two parts, maybe, just maybe it will be very close to the book. Nothing left out. Everything from leaving the Durseleys to taking the kids to the station. Well, hopefully not that part, but I want it all.
