So yesterday was an odd duck kind of day. Slept through Grammar cause I felt like it, got up at one and went to Women and Writing and then my Soc class. And something weird happened--I started feeling all kind of woozy, and I thought it was just me being tired. But that didn't make sense, since I wasn't. Then we started smelling something in the room like burning rubber and people (me included) started getting headaches, so we left early. Then I went home and slept through dinner, which isn't like me. With the lights on, too! It must have been the fumes.
So, D. Gray-Man the anime is really just starting to suck. Just when it starts to get interesting, it goes back to fillers--and really stupid, ridiculous fillers too. I don't understand why, since unlike other anime which needed filler arcs while the manga caught up, the manga is way ahead of the show at this point. There's no reason for it to be so craptastic. *le sigh* So it goes, I guess. Julie and I have given up on Busou Renkin, but we'll probably stick with D. Gray-Man until it passes the point of no return. Like BR did.
God, it has been beautiful the past few days! Cold too because of the wind, but so damn pretty! I went down to the Commons this afternoon to pick up the Sedaris tickets, and it was just so lovely. I had time while waiting for the bus so I went and bought two skirts. They're so nice and froofy and I can run around in them. Woot!
Tomorrow's the ASIC marathon with the second half of FMA. Saturday afternoon might be a Wegman's/Common's trip, but I dunno. Sunday is the Jonestown movie (gotta figure out where Fall Creek Theater is...) and Sedaris after that. I'm gonna have to do some coordinating if I want to make it to both of those.
I'm actually writing North! How did I make it through the roadblock that was the beginning? Easy! I just springboarded over it! I started at the scene where North meets Dark and I'm just gonna continue from there. They're right when they say that if you can't figure out the beginning, just go from somewhere else. Woot! I'm taking a break on the rewrite--a mini one--until I get some more criticisms, and Mot is just giving me trouble in general. Much as I tell myself over and over, I just can't get past the fact that it's so damn long and still not close to being done. Though I'm starting to get more interested in Taenailo's specific predicament, now that I know what exactly it is.
I've also been thinking a lot about Fox and Ramsey, so I might end up getting into those soon. Fox, I've decided, is gonna end up being something like a series. Ramsey will probably be a stand-alone. Then again, I say something will be a stand-alone and then suddenly it explodes and becomes a monster of a trilogy or worse. Lol, Mot was only supposed to be three books, but now it's gonna be at least four. Ah well.
Sucks that I'm getting into writing as two major research papers are about to crash down on me.
Lisa's wedding date has been set! It's May 25th. The invitations should be arriving soon about where and when exactly. Hee! It's too bad that we'll all be home then; would be easier if we were all still on this coast, but oh well, don't care! I love weddings, and I wanna see Lisa again.
And has everyone seen the new Harry Potter book cover? I don't have a link for it, but XOMG.
