Probably oughtn't be making a post from work, but I suppose as long as it's the worksafe variety no one will care too much.

Thinking about strangling the landlady. If you want to change our verbal agreement on payments? That's fine. Taping something to our door dated two days ago and then stating if you don't hear from me by 5:00pm you'll be calling a lawyer? That, m'dear, is sheer cowardice. You have my contact information.

I found that lovely note when I left for work today. It was dated 5/7/08. Today is 5/9/08. Said note was NOT on the door when I got in at almost 10pm last night.

YARGH.

On that note, I love my job. It can be a touch aggravating, but I still love it. Now, if I could get the whole apartment thing straightened out properly life would be peachy keen.

Last weekend for ever and ever. (From here on out, I work Saturdays.) MUST ENJOY IT.

[Edit] 20 episodes remaining in Fushigi Yuugi. I am enjoying that show far more than I thought I would - even though I know what's coming. I can do without the OMG MIAKA OMG TAMAHOME, but it's ... not bothering me as much as I thought it would.

I think my muses are hiding from the girly anime, though, because it's ripe for ridicule and they're absolutely silent. xD

I'm kinda rethinking my position on shoujo anime a tad bit because of it. xD;

I used to say I didn't like shoujo... but I gave up on that after I discovered that two of my top 6 favorite anime series EVER were

1) about a girl in high school surrounded by a bunch of people who turn into cute, depressed animals when hugged.

2) about a ballerina-in-training who has to dance to save the soul shards of a prince who was reincarnated from a storybook, before the giant raven comes back to life and eats the town.


Once you realize that, there's no going back and you *have* to admit you're okay with some shoujo, some time.

I have always been kinda okay with shoujo, it just hasn't been my cuppa, y'know? Escaflowne is one of my favorite series in the history of ever, and it's... really damn shoujo for a mech series. (I don't count MKR as a mech series, and I don't know why. CLAMP is just CLAMP, I guess... )

I sat through all of Ayashi no Ceres mainly because I'd read some of the manga and I just wanted to know how everything ended. Now I wish I could get that couple of days back. I think I' physically incapable of not finishing a show when I have all the episodes on hand, though.

I've actually seen the final FY OAV, which is why I have hints as to what's coming. It was years and years and years ago and I have no idea why I watched it when I hadn't seen the show itself, but yeah. I'll probably look for the OAVs since I'm enjoying the series so much, and I'm completist like that.
