Countdown to Tokyo (re-dux)
Oct. 16th, 2003 01:45 amWell, I managed to finish nearly everything on the list which means that Penal-tea is now up and there are even a few new doujinshi to download. ^o^ The big thing I haven't done yet is Osaka reservations but I'm going to call as soon as I am done posting this. ^o^
I had an amusing dinner with my parents tonight. My mother was talking about a special she saw on earthquakes and Japan...
Rachel's Mom: And so Tokyo is just waiting for the next big one.
Rachel's Husband: That's true of a lot of places.
Rachel: Yeah, like San Francisco.
Rachel's Father: Shhh!
Rachel's Mother: Why must my children go to earthquakish areas.
Rachel: The term is seismically active.
Rachel's Dad: Is that the PC term? Are there like people who fight for the earth and get upset if you don't use the correct terminology?
Rachel: Yes, they're called the "Dragons of Earth."
And yes, if that doesn't prove to you I am easily amused nothing will. ^o^
Anyway, in what is probably a vain attempt to get me to work on my Fujicest fic, I'm going to post a tiny snippet here as maybe putting some of it out in public will be the kick I need. ^^ I do want to try and get the first chapter ready for public consumption, maybe I will work on it in Japan....BTW if Fujicest squicks you *DO NOT READ* It's silly to read something you hate and then complain about it later, honestly.
