U I vethed na I onnad.

( Kaibutsu-kun episode 7 )

I figured out what was wrong with the left sleeve of my jacket - I had sewed two rights. Kind of like previously I had sewed two left sides of the jacket bodice instead of a whole jacket bodice. I am so special. 8Db

Any rate, now it's fixed and attached properly, and lying flat instead of doing that awful puckering. I can get started on the lining now (and hopefully have a better time of not sewing the same side twice, since it's patterned). With any luck this jacket will be ready for wearing by next week.

It is probably a bad sign that I am against making the final move to the new apartment because of the lack of internet there. There isn't TV there, either and I have no idea when we will be getting them again, making my desire not to leave even greater.

But, work starts tomorrow for real (wherein I will meet the staff for the first time before school starts, yay), but the school has something going on this coming Friday, then next Monday, and the following Friday. With any luck, in those days I will be able to take my driver's test and pass it. Amanda's going for her second try on Thursday - it would be super nice for at least one of us to have a valid license. orz

Also? Monster choreography? IS HILARIOUS. Though people need to stop pretending that Nino wanting to quit the company is some kind of secret by now. Sho wanting to quit is less known than Nino wanting to quit. Seriously TV. *shakes head*

capncosmo and I went to Utsunomiya hoping to get advance tickets for the Shinkenger vs. Go-onger movie (only to find that advance tickets are simply not being sold) and came back with tickets for Alice in Wonderland instead. I am exceeeeeeeedingly excited. I want to see this movie like burning.

I let my 100 userpic add-on expire as an unnecessary expense, to discover that I have 65 anyway. Most excellent. I means I can have my Yankees icons again!

Also excellent? Is the fact that my stove turns itself off. I may have just attempted to boil water only to completely forget it was on the heater.

Now for Sho's Tokujo Kabachi!!. I am intrigued by the previews for Bloody Monday, but I haven't seen the first series. I should do that.

So in Saigo no Yakusoku, the casting looks like the following:

Sho - Life insurance business man (who can't leave alone a suffering figure)
Nino - Security Center person (who manages his the security system in a calm and cool manner)
Aiba - Coffee shop employee (who makes a lot of mistakes when taking orders)
Jun - Bike delivery boy (who comes to the building A LOT for deliveries and has a hot temper)
Ohno - Janitor (who is a my pace kind of guy)

Why must I wait until January 19th for it? T^T

[edit] Apparently it's the 9th. That's much better.

What on earth is Kaname Jun doing in this super bad version of A Little Princess?

Tell me he's not taking the place of Isacar, somebody. It's bad enough the whole story's been dragged out and moved into a boarding high school.

[about half-way through the show...]

OH MY GOD.

There is something so very wrong with this show. No, I mean seriously wrong. It's like someone wrote fan-fiction based on the book, where the only thing remotely connecting it to the original is the fact that her dad still died and she's forced to start working for the school. Everything else is just. UGH.

(And Kaname Jun is definitely playing Isacar. WHY? T^T)

Everyone is one-sided. Mrs. Minchin's replacement character is hell bent on making Seira's life miserable, and on top of her there are brand new characters added, whom have only the purpose of giving Seira more obstacles in life. It's SO STUPID and it's making a mockery of one of my favorite kid's stories.

It wasn't this bad until about two episodes ago; now I can only keep watching with the hope that the end will return to at least pretending to follow the story.

Dude. Is Liar Game I as awesome as this episode of Liar Game II? Because if it is I want it.

It's a little like Japan loves me.

Nino.
Ryo.
Autumn drama.
CONFIRMED!!!

*dies*

Why Yamada Tarou Monogatari? Whyyyyyyyyyyyyyy? Why do you leave me with only 10 episodes and no news of a second series? Whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy?

... Going to go cry in a corner now.

All right Alex! 50 home runs in one season. First right handed batter on the Yankees to do so; first Yankee since Mantle and Maris.
Go man, go!

[edit] Wow damn. That was an inning of innings. However, here's hoping that Pettitte is okay for the rest of the game.

P.S. Damn you, BitTorrent, give me Yamada Tarou!
