7:31 pm	Sup Hey all. Just wanted to say I'm alive. Been busy with work actually, got five straight days this past week and for the holiday week I'm working four days. Been watching a lot of indy female wrestling lately, specifically Shimmer Women's Athletes. I'm just going to be a male pig here and say the roster for this company has a lot of hot females. Females that can wrestle to be sure, but still hot. I'd recommend to check out Daizee Haze, Lacey, MsChif, Nicole Matthews, Portia Perez and Rebecca Knox. I know Knox isn't wrestling anymore, which sucks but she was very good at being a heel. As I've bitched about in my author's notes probably for the past year at least, WWE and TNA aren't doing it for me anymore but ironically enough Shimmer and watching shit on Youtube is keeping me a fan of wrestling. Done for now. (1 Comment |Comment on this)

6:39 pm	Info Sup all. Just telling you peeps that I'm moving out of my current residence and going somewhere else. Which means I'm not going to be on the internet for a while, which sucks. I hate moving crap, hate it. Cleaning shit and all that. Throwing away stuff I want to keep. Good way to spend my damn birthday on Monday. Done for now. (Comment on this)

10:20 am	Quickie Chickie Sup all. Still hating the job, but the plan is to either renegotiate the lease to a lower price or move somewhere else. We're supposed to be getting some van to drive now so that's a good thing. Hell, maybe I can go to a movie now. I haven't seen GI Joe and I'm not sure I want to. GI Joe was a part of my childhood but by the commercials I've seen it just looks stupid. While GI Joe wasn't Mensa level shit, once in a while it did try to inject some kind of pathos into the story. And for the record, Serpentor was actually a better leader than Cobra Commander. Both men were just batshit crazy. Although if Destro ran that shit, the Joes would've been in trouble. Finally jumped onto ITunes and found a nice wrestling podcast along with Rachel Maddow. I need a damn Ipod and a DVD burner.

6:15 pm	Drive By Post Sup all. This day was kind of jacked up. The frame on my glasses broke so now I have to wear my beat up old glasses. I cut my finger making like the Incredible Hulk opening the garage door while being soaked and the house is infested with German roaches. Had to help Mom clean shit up. Hate cleaning shit. Want to see the latest HP movie, but my car's engine in blown out so I have no way to check it out. I'm sure I could go ghetto and download it online, but I usually don't download current movies online. From what I've seen, people have been hating on this movie but Rachel liked it and I usually trust her opinion. I do hope that the movie handled the romance portion better than the book did. I'll just say that I've never been a fan of Ron and Hermione as a couple mainly because he's just too stubborn, whiny and blockheaded to roll with Hermione. I personally ship her with various girlslash pairings and Harry in my head. Done for now. Current Music: Hitomi Yoshida-KI-ZU-NA (Comment on this)

6:17 pm	Cable Sup all. Nothing much going on with moi, waiting for uncle to get his shit together so we can have some damn transportation. However, there is something new in my life. After 9 years, cable is back in the house. Now I can finally fucking watch sports again on ESPN and such, waste a good couple of hours on E! And speaking of E, I was watching this morning and saw that Danielle Fishel (Topanga) of Boy Meets World fame is back on TV as the host of The Dish on Saturday nights on the Style network. On a completely shallow note, she's still looking good. Cartoon Network, I don't know what the hell happened with them but I'm not impressed by what they're rolling out. Aqua Team Hunger Force, Batman: Brave and The Bold, Robot Chicken, and Ben 10 a little bit are the only things that I liked. I hate the dubbing jobs on both Bleach and Yu-Gi-Oh 5d's, especially Jack's voice with 5d's. I don't know where they thought the cockney British voice is supposed to represent his character. And I've seen all of Code Geass already and their dubbing was better than the other two anime series I mentioned then but the second season slipped from the near greatness of season one IMO. In any event, whatever they get to replace Code Geass needs to be cool. Saw Gurren Laggen on Sci Fi, looks interesting but not sure I like the animation style though. And Rave Master I believe was on Nickelodeon first. Typical boys anime, not interesting to moi. Done for now. (2 Comments |Comment on this)

10:39 pm	Random Ish Sup all. I'm okay. Mom's back from the hospital and all is well. She's been eating better and hopefully this fluid that's in her will go away. Got an invitation from a coworker to go with him to see the Star Trek reboot on May 8th. I said yeah mainly because I am interested in seeing how Abrams does this. Knowing his work on Alias and Lost, he's going to turn shit up with bells and whistles and all. Whether that's going to be good for the franchise is another story. Just saw that Full Metal Alchemist will have another series out this month in Japan. I think it's only 12 eps and is going to go off the manga plotline. I stopped reading the manga about halfway through, because it just wasn't doing it for me. Usually, the manga ends up better than the anime (Hikaru No Go, Yu-Gi-Oh through the first two series at least, Shaman King among others). I'd like to see a continuation from the ending of the anime series, the movie sucked and I wish I could get that hour plus of my life back. But I'll watch it anyways because FMA was the last series that I considered a classic. As much I like Yu-Gi-Oh 5d's and Gundam 00, they're not on that classic level. The Avatar movie just makes me cringe. They had Jesse McCartney as Zuko until people got pissed off and now the dude from Slumdog Dev Patel is playing him. If Dante Basco (VA for Zuko) was younger, I would've had him do Zuko. I liked Patel's performance in Slumdog and there's just no way in hell he can be worse than Jesse McCartney. I know this is supposed to be a big budget trilogy and will make it's money back easy just from the rabid fandom but M. Night is going to fuck this up and considering how they ended the series, I almost want it to crash and burn. Jackson Rathbone as Sokka, I think he could pull it off. Rathbone's doing good for himself with Twilight and this series. One thing, with a series that was built on diversity, I'm not sure that they're following on that precept with the casting. I shudder to think who they cast for Toph later on and dammit they better get Azula right if nothing else because she's been my favorite female villain for a while now. Done for now. Peace out.

8:50 pm	Quick Check Up Sup all. Nothing much going on. Just filed via TaxAct, I'm hoping the IRS lets it go through so I can get paid my full shit. Last year I went to H&R Block to get my shit early and they took a lot out of my return. Just thinking about my grandmother. Sometimes, Mom gets frustrated at her and I do too at some points. I know she's got Alzheimer's and she just can't help it but it just hurts. She and Mom were the ones that raised me and while we can debate how well they did, still I just feel bad. Like Grandma doesn't deserve this shit, she's been one of God's most devout soldiers and all but now she can't do anything by herself. I don't know how to connect with her and Mom's not well either. We're going to have to end up putting Grandma in a home and my great grandmother ended her life in a home too. That absolutely sucked. I don't know how to deal with it sometimes. I should try to not end this on a downer, so I'll say that I watched some more of Yu-Gi-Oh 5d's and I'm still very onboard with this series. The main thing they've done for me is actually have characters with some dimension in Yusei and Jack as the Yugi and Kaiba archetypes resepectively. Except Yusei is much more badass than Yugi ever was, hell I think he could give Yami a run for his money. And from the fanfic I've checked out in the Pit, het is represented fairly well in 5d's fandom. Done for now. Current Mood: eh (Comment on this)

3:37 pm	Maintainance (yes I spelled that wrong) Sup all, been a long time since I posted. Since I posted, both my mom and grandmother landed in the hospital. Both are out now, Mom just got out yesterday. Got to take Grandma to the doctor early. I hate fucking doctor's appointments. I hate getting her medication together and showing him that I'm not overdosing her. I know, I just get tired of living in the doctor's office and I know Mom and Grandma are especially tired of it. Gotten way behind on my Gundam 00/Yu-Gi-Oh 5d's watching. With the NCAA tournament coming up, I'm going to stay behind. I love to watch college basketball. I hope in Gundam's case it doesn't tail off like Code Geass did in it's second season. I read the original graphic novel to Watchmen and I'm going to check out the movie for sure. Not a fan of how the story ended in the GN, but maybe my mind will change with the movie. Hikaru Utada's second American album This Is The One (well second major label American album) has leaked already and as a Hikki fan, I have to comment. She did a much better job on this one than Exodus, mainly because she didn't do the experimental thing. She definitely went commercial with this one. But I was disappointed with the Automatic 2 track. I loved the original, but this one was kinda mid-tempo. Personally, I wish she'd just sing English versions of Automatic and Can You Keep A Secret from her Distance album. Slowly, my brain is circling to work on my fiction GWWA mostly. Peace out (Comment on this)

7:22 pm	Sick I'm on this damn computer sick. My uncle just blasted me for basically doing nothing worthwhile. I wish I could be as smart as he is. That's sarcasm btw. I think he's got a few screws loose and Mom does too. He is right about life passing me by. But my self-confidence absolutely sucks. My grandmother is back home, but the dementia has really hit her now. I don't like seeing my grandmother like she is now. She was independent, now we have to help her do stuff. It just makes me sick. It makes me mad and angry at life in general. I'm throwing this out there, what are some good stay at home jobs where I can surf the net or whatever? I need something so I can justify for a little while being on this computer so much. Done for now. (Comment on this)

9:51 pm	Eh Sup all, been two months since I posted in this thing. This is probably the longest period of time between posting ever. Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years weren't anything to write home about. My grandmother has been in the hospital for the past month now so she missed Christmas and New Years. I'm not in a good mood. But what else is new? Managed to watch the entire series of Code Geass. Fun series and lots of female talent to look at. I'll wax more poetic about Code Geass in another post. I can't put it up with the best of mecha/war series like Gundam Wing, Mobile Suit Gundam, Robotech and Aura Battler Dunbine, but it's probably the best mecha show I've seen in the last 3 years. Done for now. (Comment on this)

7:35 pm	Apopros of Nothing Sup all. Nothing much to say. Sore from work, even though I only worked 3 or 4 hours. I think of an accumulated thing. Bought Smackdown vs. Raw 2009 for the tag mode. Saw review on Ign and the game got a 7.0 for the PS2. The thing I really want for the Smackdown series for the next gen systems like Xbox and PS3 is to incorporate the main thing that drew me into Fire Pro Wrestling. Mainly the ability to be able to make your created wrestler fight like you want them due to much trial and error. That's why I like watching simmed matches so much on FPW. You can constantly be surprised with each match, with the Smackdown games you'd really rather be playing than watching the computer sim because the AI for these games aren't tight. From what I understand, they've finally worked the AI in SVR 2009 to be worth my money. You can adjust the gameplay thing. But I really posted just to relay this, I've been reading fanfic for close to 10 years now and writing it for 8 years. But I've never seen this before. I've found Disney slash featuring Winnie The Pooh, Eeyore, and Tigger. I haven't read it but damn. Oh and this same list has Golden Girls fanfic too. That surprised me, I loved GG. Yeah I said it. But I can't read it though. This author is pretty good, but still. There are some fandoms that I think fanfic just can't capture the flavor of the original work. The Simpsons, Invader Zim, and Golden Girls are those in my opinion. Done for now. Current Mood: okay (2 Comments |Comment on this)

11:06 am	Drive By I'll post a more substantial (well as substantial as I get) entry later, but all I'm going to say right now is that I'm glad America got it right with the election. I voted early and waited 3 hours at the Alafaya Library that was in the news. I was excited to vote and proud to vote for Obama. I didn't think I'd see this day come in my lifetime, but it has and I'm sure that Obama will do what's needed to pull us out of this. Peace out. Current Mood: happy (Comment on this)

9:13 pm	Annoyance I really try to keep this journal mostly light, post about anime, life and news that catches my attention. But as I sit here, I just find that I get tired sometimes. I get tired of a sister who seems to be incapable of paying her share of rent. Incapable of being able to instill in her kids simple shit like cleaning up after themselves. Or to mind grown folks that aren't Mommmy or Daddy. She's incapable of actually giving her kids attention. Incapable of getting them to go to bed when they have to go to bed so she can't get rest. She's very capable of lying in bed all day, yapping on the phone with her various guys along with family. To be fair, she does get up and get the kids and shit, but she's still tired a lot. The kids are 10, 7 and 5. They just frustrate me so damn much. The oldest kid is as smart as I was when I was her age. Hell, she's probably better than me. I just think she's going to end up a lot like Mom, the first charismatic dude she meets is going to knock her up young and she'll be in a young mom struggling. I don't know, they just piss me off and I want them gone. We'll be better off. Done for now. Current Music: m-flo-Simple and Lovely feat. Koda Kumi (Comment on this)

11:06 pm	Surprise Sup all. Not going to be much of an entry. Was just checking my profile and found that someone made me their friend and I have no idea who this person is. This has happened to me before from some 15 year old when I barely started this journal. However, this person has some of the same interests as me and I believe is my age. So to lilly_rose I say, hi. I've got to check out your journal more, but I think I'll friend you back. Managed to actually post a new chapter on my fiction on Fictionpress. I found that I've jad people that at least looked at my work from Thailand and the UK. Been watching Gundam 00 and so far, the lead Gundam Pilots in Celestial Being remind me of the guys from Gundam Wing even though from what I understand that series is supposed to be some alternate universe deal in the official timeline of the series but they've had like 11 series or something. I could have another candidate for the ABOM (Annoying Bitch of Mecha) with Louise. Some of these names made me think they were hitting some drugs, Allelujah Haptism, Lockon, Graham Acre among others. Flitting between mopey and feeling okay. Anyways, done for now. (Comment on this)

5:13 pm	Joy Sup all. Going to be a short post. I'm 30 years old today. Sick as a dog though, so I'm not enjoying my birthday very much. Got money and a cake so that's a plus. My sister's dad is living here now and I never liked his ass. He acted like he didn't want to go get my birthday cake, trifling ass. Tis all for now.

12:30 am	Random Shite Sup all. After a month plus, updating this journal. Not much to report really, I just don't want this thing to be too behind or something. I'm retrying Japanese dramas. I was into a series called What's Up Fox? last year but You Tube killed that. Now because I needed something to watch, I decided to try again. Found Koshonin on Jdramas and that was some good shit. Currently watching Shimokita Glory Days, which for some odd reason I think I watched some of the series at one point back in the day. Either that or I read the manga before I was really into manga. Oh, and I fucking finally found a full version of TRYFORCE's Face song. That's the opening theme for Heat Guy J, a series that I never finished but hey Johnny Yong Bosch is a villain in it so there's that. And now I'm looking over his work on Wikipedia, he's done a lot of shit that I've watched or will watch. Bleach, Full Metal Alchemist, Here Is Greenwood, Last Exile, Trigun, Samurai Champloo, Witch Hunter Robin, Code Geass (will be watching that one soon), Gatekeepers, Akira. Nice job there, wish he'd pop up in some live action shit I'll watch. He's the only male Power Ranger I actually liked. Also found La Soldier too, I had that song burned already but the disk it's on is old and beaten down by now. So I've found anime songs that I've been looking for years in some cases, that makes me happy. Oh, Sarah Palin. Cute and all, I'd hit it. But she shouldn't be a VP candidate. After that speech, she fits right in with McCain's philosophy and that should scare anybody with two brain cells to rub together. Next post will have SMAP stuff in it, dammit. Peace out.

12:10 pm	Query Sup all, just a drive-by post really. Been watching some Doctor Who Season 2, David Tennant/Billie Piper kick ass btw. Piper's much better as an actress than a singer and she's a pretty good singer. I'm just throwing this out there. Somebody recommend an anime for me to check out and why should I do so. I'm watching Najica Blitz Tactics and Slayers Revolution right now. A note on Slayers, I didn't think they'd ever come back with another series. It's been like 11 years since the last one dropped and the music is as great as expected from Megumi Hayashibara. Downloaded the opening/ending themes. I'm going to get to Code Geass and Avatar next but I still want something else in the line as it were. Applied online for a shipping clerk position at Ameritech. My cousin forwarded me the information. They didn't show a number to call, I'd rather talk to someone just so I can be sure I'd have a shot at it. We'll see. Peace out. (3 Comments |Comment on this)

1:02 pm	Thankful Sup all, been a long time since I posted. I had computer issues, which means I had to reinstall the entire Windows XP operating system. I was doing a system restore, the youngest kid thought it would be a good idea to turn off the computer while I went somewhere. That fucked up the system, thus I lost all my music files, my fiction shit, all of it. Bookmarks, that shit was fucked up. I complied four years of music and shit on this computer and it's gone. I'm glad I burned most of the music but it's a pain in the ass to burn them off the cds into a playlist so I'm probably just going to rebuild from scratch and listen to Internet Radio/Podcasts for a long time. Podcasts are the latest thing I'm hooked on. The O Show is like a wrestling/mma/music/whatever they want to talk about thing. Downloading the Avatar finale. I just have to say this, the creators of the show have created a brilliant show for the first two seasons. This last season isn't doing it for and some of the infantile behavior they've stooped too in the San Diego Comic Con is just fucking weak. I'll freely admit that when I first started watching I was a Aang/Katara fan. But as time went on, I'm more of a Katara/Zuko fan. Mainly because it makes a lot more sense. They wouldn't have an easy relationship and they're just dynamic together. Zuko understands Katara a lot better than Aang does, which he should by the way considering his whole arc. Aang's whole thing is that he has to be detached from certain human things, his job is to save the damn world not moon after Katara. And from what I've seen here and there, he's going to save the world and get the girl. But I digress, basically what the creators did was a gag reel making fun of the Zutara fanbase at this con. That's ridiculous, you're stooping to fanboy levels. As creators, they're supposed to be above all that shit. Without these fans, their product isn't as profitable. Avatar is probably the biggest brand Nickelodeon has for their cartoon division with the exception of Spongebob. How smart is to piss of a big portion of your fanbase? They still got the live action movie trilogy franchise going off in late 2009. And as an aside, M. Night Shamalayan (I probably spelled his name wrong) as a director? He had one good movie and everything else has sucked. His ass shouldn't even be employed anymore, but whatever. They better hope he has a miracle. I'm rambling but really all I have to say is that's fucked up and it's going to come back to them in the end. Done for now. Current Music: The O Show Podcast (Comment on this)

9:43 pm	Cutting All Sup all. Two weeks since the last post, hot as hell in this house. Mom landed back in the hospital since the last time I posted. She's doing better now and it looks like she'll be out soon. They want her blood pressure to be more stable than it has been before they let her go. She had a mini-stroke from what I understand. That just worries me a lot. She had a seizure the last time she was there. I don't know, I just don't like thinking about death. I hate funerals, just makes me feel bad. I think I'd feel better about them if we did funeral s like the Irish do funerals but our family does the standard hymn singing, reflections on person's life, sermon, burial and get your grub on at the end. Enough of that, work is well work. Got time off from Sunday-Wednesday. I work on Thursday for a whopping 3 and a half hours before working a 7 hour shift on the 4th. Of course they'd work me on the holiday. Fucking shit, since I'm part time my hours are the first that get cut. There should be a minimum 20+ hour workload, fuck slow times and shit. At least I'm getting my stimulus check next month. Not that I'm spending it all, giving 200 of it to mom, 200 gets split between my checking and savings account. I might put 100 more into the checking account and blow the other 100 on some shit. I do plan on buying DVD's of the internet series 3Way and Exes and Ohs from Amazon most likely. I can blame AfterEllen for those purchases. Not really feeling buying a PS2 game right now. I don't know, maybe I'll jump on Disgaea. The Gamestop on East Colonial in front of the Super Walmart still had both Disgaea 1 and 2 there to my surprise. Oh and I've been listening to The Cliks Oh Yeah after seeing their performance on a awards show. Not getting into the gender issues with the lead singer, all I know is the person can sing reminds meof Melissa Ethridge. Daughtry better enjoy the money, because if his next album is anything like the first he'll drop quick. Every damn song sounds the same, he doesn't change shit and that pisses me off more than anything. Got the meme I said I'd do for in_excelsis_dea a while back under one cut and the rest of my Hitohira SMAP under a second cut.
