Zero needs his bow-chika-wow theme

Let's play the bad news/good news game since I'm bummed out of my so-far two days of computerless misery.

Good News:

How is it that both Naruto and Geass release the crackiest crack that ever cracked on the days that I'm not around to properly squeal about them? That's just not fair. I mean, stripping Zero = L-fucking-OL in every possible way. And AU highschool bad boy Naruto is only a notch below that when it comes to the kill me with laughter ability. I do hope those Geass episode dates they're tossing around are official, even if they are in at the END OF JULY. The agony.

Saw Blood Diamond and Ghost Rider. The best part about the latter was Sam Elliot. Actually, that's about all I can say about that movie since I all but fell asleep. Blood Diamond was a disturbing piece, particularly with the child soldiers. But I really enjoyed the ambiguity of Leonardo DiCaprio's smuggler character, in that circumstances were the only things that ever affected his decisions. All the way up to the end. I'm grateful to see a movie that doesn't rely on cliches and antiheroes but really explores people as people. I also loved his South African accent. Yeah yeah?

Bad News:

Typing on this computer is physically painful because of the position I have to put it in. I had hoped to have a solution by yesterday, but that was not the case. I'm not sure how much backache I'm willing to trade for Netting pleasures. It's definitely a distraction. Boss says he might have something in a few days. But that's the main reason I've been avoiding the Net lately. It's too damn difficult to use the computer.

I wanted to go see Tom this weekend but with his aversion to me coming over on Saturdays and my having an assignment Monday afternoon, I'm not sure how the two are going to mesh. He promises us Doctor Who fun, even though a certain EVIL being who shall remain nameless spoiled the major stuff for me while we were watching the fireworks. To be fair, the wicked IRC channel spoiled most of the Master stuff as well. But if I can convince Tom to give me Saturday, I might have to make a choice that will irk me far more than it should. Ah the perils of being part of a group.

The weeds are returning to my garden. I need mulch.


ETA: First ow. Second, so the dates are confirmed. And third, grr snarl my beautiful phone conversation. ;_; At least it can still be tragic and bittersweet on Lelouch's part. Also, GameFAQs is right, why the hell do the magazines always imply Lelouch will point a gun at Suzaku? He knows Suzaku will just dodge it. Sigh.

Why do you force me to be like *normal* people?

Dammit I'm so friggin' pissed right now. I am using my desk as a computer desk. This is not supposed to be. My wrists hate the way the edge of the computer digs into them. Sasuke-neko is plotting how to take out the three stacks of manga I was forced to move to another counter so I could fit my computer on the desk. The other stack of manga threatens to fall over and smash my hands. Yeah I need to clean my room ok? I'm not used to using a laptop in the sane, conventional way. And the light reflecting from my light fixture is bouncing off the screen and hurting my eyes. I officially hate using the computer right now.

Onto other topics, I caught up on Yugioh:TAS. The movie had some great lines, particularly with Pegasus flirting with Kaiba, Anzu trying to sex up Yuugi and Kaiba trying not to look at the naked Anubis. The newer episodes are also fun. Who doesn't love Otogi being sexy? I admit I looked up that name and only know him as Duke Devlin, but I wanted to be cool. I love his theme music in TAS. He is entirely too pretty to exist on Yugioh. It is why he could only stay for a handful of episodes at a time. I was sad he never got to meet Kaiba. Oh and Safty was marvelously creepy as Rebecca and her demonic teddy bear.

Also tortured myself with Naruto: Abridged don't know why. I don't mind if a fan hates yaoi. Up to them really. But do they have to continuously bash it? I have no point of comparison since yaoi fans very rarely make parodies so I can't say whether or not they bash het pairings. But knowing fangirls, I suppose it's highly likely.

ETA: Oh yeah, I do have one more complaint. At this angle, I'm going to have to close my door since passersby can see any of the horrible pron I may be looking at/reading.
