OK for those curious or not...

I'm going to be in Japan from April 27-May 5. I picked those dates so I could attend Doll Show 12 on the 29th and Super Comic City on the 2nd and 3rd. The 2nd is PoT day (as well as Seed!!!) and the 3rd is weird merchandise and I am sort of curious what they have for sale. The Japanese are quite creative and make things like Golden Pair ashtrays and Rivals clocks. I'm going to get to see dilettantka, muscatlove and reieien I'm really excited. ^_^

In other less exciting news, I have to go to a baby shower tomorrow. I DETEST baby showers for the most part as people use them as an excuse to pester me about having a baby. *sighs*

I'm trying to do things other than my RPG, really I am....

And as for domain names... I do own a few... but none that are "general." I might just buy rachelsobsessions and be done with it. *sighs* At least my new host is much better so far... (though more money, but quality matters!)

I bought A&E's Pride and Prejudice on DVD the other day... Colin Firth... *sighs happily* In honor of this purchase... Rachel and sumeragiskank's really wrong casting of PoT into Pride and Prejudice.



Originally, we had someone else as Mr. Darcy, but changed it... Kim and I were also making lots of wrong jokes about Mr. Darcy running off with Georgiana in the end. *dies*

That's terrible... I'm rather glad I have my degree even though I never put it to much use. ^^;;

Wow August, good luck with the humidity! Will you be there for Comiket?

I would not be surprised if there was an Akutsu one, but I've definitely seen a GP one... and who is to say it's not Eiji who smokes XD

I love the A&E P&P ad it made me fall in love with Colin Firth *laughs*

[mec]

Yeah, I've been warned about the humidity! But I will (hopefully) be okay, living in Cape Town is good practice for dealing with hot weather. Besides, it's just a week, really, and I can deal with a week. I'm determined to throw myself wholeheartedly into this holiday - spending spree of my life, coming up! Though you realise you will be the most impossible friend to buy a present for because the odds are good that whatever I think you'll like, you'll already have?

Anyway, yep, Koon and I are aiming for Comiket - hence the August trip - so I'm really looking forward to everything. Oh, I'm getting all excited now! *claps hands together gleefully*

Eiji probably does everything already, so it would be a bigger surprise if it was Oishi who smoked. (Actually, given Eiji's behaviour some of the time, I don't think it's *tobacco* he's smoking...)

Anyhow, I've read your latest post and while I do quite agree with Kennis, I'm still going to pester you to look for TeniMyu 2 DVD for me ^_^ At the rate my BT download is going, I'll be able to go buy it myself by the time it finishes... And yes, I realise that 20% of the DVD cost is going to be a fair bit (and then PayPal charges), but I will quite cheerfully pay whatever you want to charge me as I am very keen to see the show. (It's Fudomine, darn it!) Only if it's not too much trouble, of course - you've been wonderful about picking things up for me before, and I would hate to further inconvenience you. (Naturally, I will be happy to shop for you in August ^_^)

Well.... if you're going to Comiket, I'm sure there will be something new there that I do not own yet ^o^ Though I swear my collection of Fuji kyoudai doujinshi is becoming a bit scary and will soon need it's own box. *laughs*

I just found Tokyo in August a bit overwhleming... but Comiket would probably make it worth it. I hope you got good airfares.

I heard rumors from Kim they made Keigo and Oshitari condoms.... which would seem horribly appropriate.

And awww, it's no problem I will definitely look for the DVD... and well I confess avis are just never as nice as DVDs. (I bought some PoT episodes on DVD and they're just so much cleaner!)

Just let me know if there is anything else you're searching for.... I'm going to be looking for some Whistle things for myself *laughs*

[mec]

I'm getting student rates, so I think it was okay ^_^ Sadly, once I'm older than 25, that won't apply anymore...

Gods, that would be appropriate for those two. Not that I would ever associate either of them with *safe* sex, but there you go.

Cheers! I much prefer having the DVDs too - not the least because I can then watch on a much bigger screen (or in bed)! I'm bad about buying official releases for most things, but musicals fall into a completely different category. There's just no end to the camp TeniPuri crack ^_^

Hmm...well, I don't think I'm after anything in particular this time - will wait until I get there myself and then shop till I drop! - but if you're going Whistle hunting and happen to find anything of interest (preferably Mizuno and/or Shige-related, but I love them all), then please add to your shopping basket and charge me when you get back. I trust you ^_^

Ohhhhh I'd ask you what you got but I know that is sort of rude. *laughs* I could have gotten a lower fare if I'd used another airline but I have so many miles on United and I get to sit in the nicer premier seating area because I have so many miles with them that it's hard to use someone else....

No, I don't think safe sex and Oshitari or Keigo, but I confess I would love to own condoms emblazoned with their images.

If I like something enough I buy official releases... I'm sure you can guess which episode of PoT I own on DVD... XD There are lots of smaller details you catch with the DVDs.. like the fact there is a wisteria vine behind Fuji in episode 64. I own the first musical and I'm very tempted to buy the 2nd for myself. ^^

I'm, of course, looking for Sanada uke things from Whistle *laughs*
