Who is driving? Bear is driving! How can that be?

The theme of this website is competition anime because I love how those series affect me. I get pulled in by the story and the bishonen. Then the games reel me in the rest of the way. When I am in the middle of such series, I have many sleepless nights trying to watch as much as I can at once. When I watched Slam Dunk, I found myself yelling for Ryota to pass to Rukawa. I screamed for every score. I almost cried when Shohoku lost one of their games. When I watched Initial D, even though I knew that Takumi was the main character and therefore could not lose, I still had my face really close to my computer/tv screen yelling for him to win. I am finishing up Hajime no Ippo. I only have the OVA to go. I was so into Ippo that I screamed during one of his fights. While watching Prince of Tennis, Tezuka's game against the other captain put me through the ringer. And then there was Grappler Baki. All I can say about Baki is, "Damn, the giant ape ate his own eye!"

Bush! A Winner is You!

Yay! Kerry conceded. Bush won. All is right with my world.

In more important news, EB Games has my Inu Yasha RPG for PS2. Now, I must go and claim it. ^_^

He always has a front row seat

I went to see Saw. I "saw" Saw. Heh.

I loved it. ^_^ Go see this movie. It has a great twist ending.

I'm sad. Team America World Police is no longer playing at my local movie theater. Gotta drive to Arlington now if I want to see it again. That, or just watch my crappy cam bootleg I got with teh wonderful Bit Torrent. Bit Torrent teh sh1t.

Arrrrrrr!

October 13 was a sad day for me. That was the day anime.mirkx.com died. However, fear not, fellow anime dark-siders, for a new website has replaced mirkx! It has a lot of the same features as our beloved mirkx. Even it's layout is suspiciously familiar. I hope it stays around for a good long time. One thing I don't like about it though, is that it doesn't have the date of when the torrents come out. But, at least it's something and I don't have to go back to my "checking 4 websites" torrent routine.

Long live the almighty Bit Torrent!

Little Treasure

As I was sitting at my computer and catching up on my swank interweb type cartoons, the little treasure himself stood in his doorway in nothing but his shorts and made armpit farts at me.

The other day, Little Treasure left a message on my cell. He sang the entire Jay rap from Jay and Bob Strike Back. I think I may be a bad influence on him.

Little Treasure listens to rap. He seems to like Black Eyed Peas and has bought the CD featuring the mega hit, "Let's Get it Started." The title is repeated over and over in the song. It's a real gem. Where did I go wrong? Next thing you know, he'll be watching the MTV, going to concerts and parties, and other non-nerd things. He's in his school band and he plays RPGs, so there is still hope. Currently, he is playing Final Fantasy Tactics.

Just now, Little Treasure pulled his shorts half-way down his legs, revealing his tighty whiteys, and did a rotating pelvic thrust dance.

Little Treasure is listening to the radio full blast. What's playing? Why it just so happens to be that wonderful "Let's Get it Started" song.

Little Treasure is my 13-year-old brother.

He has now gone to bed.

*goes to kiss him good-night.*

-_-

I think I blew my audition. Everyone else I talked to said that the director had something nice to say. I didn't get anything though. Just a thanks for auditioning and a good bye. I don't hold it against anyone though. I must suck at voice acting. I've done bit parts, yes, but that was just to humor me I think. It was just the directors being nice by throwing me a couple of unimportant parts. I think I'll give up this stupid ambition to voice act. It was never meant to be. No one I know has ever said anything about hearing me in an episode of Conan and saying they liked it or they were wowed. Thank you everyone for your kindness and not telling me I suck. I'm sorry it took me so long to realize. I won't take any of the directors' valuable time anymore by auditioning.

It's sad in a way though. I remember being little and writing little plays for my Barbie's and ponies to act out and dreaming of the day I could enter high school and join the drama club. In my freshman year of high school I really did go to the first drama club meeting of the year. Then I found out that they would have to do fund raising, something I have sworn off because I'm Republican. No, it's because I worked my ass off one year selling that crappy wrapping paper and that expensive chocolate and never got the prizes I was promised. So, anyway, I didn't join the drama club. What if I had though? I would have become a mad 733t actor with all types o' skillz. Then I would have started acting in college and then audition for FUNi and become a voice actor. But no. I suck. I give up. Oh, well. I don't care anymore. It's funny. I'm not that disappointed now that I think about it. I figure, I didn't want to do it for the work of acting. I just wanted the glory. I wanted to be able to say to someone, "Oh, yeah, I do that voice," and get oohed and ahhed at. I'm sad I know. *sigh* Never again shall I audition.

In completely unrelated news:
I feel very drained. You know that feeling when you're sailing on Cloud 9 and then someone pulls you aside and tells you something that brings your entire world crashing down? That's how I feel now. Sad, worried... just drained. -_- I won't bore the two of you that read this with the details. I'll just say that at the end of our moving day, I was told something and it was like being shot in the head. I feel so horrible.

Damn, I'm glad I was pulled aside at the end of the day instead of the beginning or I would have gotten nothing done today. I would have lost the will to function.

Heh, all this the day before I leave for Oni-con.

Ah, well. I'll bounce back I'm sure. I'll go into work tomorrow and be my normal self, set up my newly moved into cube, and work really hard until it's time to leave for Oni-con. I'll just pretend like nothing is wrong. I can do it. I do it all the time. People think I'm happy and don't have a care when that just isn't true. Sometimes I'm really sad on the inside and just putting up a front. Jeez, all this wonderful acting and it's going to waste. Eventually I'll forget about this, I guess, and things will work out...hopefully.

But until then... I just don't want to do anything. It almost makes me want to just go straight to bed. Jeez, I even yelled at my brother today too because he was on my computer and I wanted to post what I'm posting now. I'm a horrible person. -_- I'm sorry, Chris. I love you.

Man, what a drama whore I am. Now I bet all of you that read this are thinking I'm typing this for attention. That may be true in part. Really though, I just wanted to get my thoughts out on "paper" and if people read about it, then so be it.
