Crack
Oh, insomnia. How I hate you. I haven't gotten anything done in a week. Taking my driving test? Nope. Getting hard facts about TEFL certification courses? Nope. I've seen the sunrise without getting a wink of sleep several times this week.
But, I've found something that distracts me sufficiently from my angsty predicament: The second Kyo Kara Maou PS2 game, Shin Makoku Vacation! Holy hell. It's like playing a fanfic. On crack. Or maybe like watching the anime. They're pretty shameless in cannon, too. I stumbled across the iso of the $140 game on a comm and after a few hours got it downloaded and got an emulator to work with Vista and my horrible little system. I've been playing ever since. It's hilarious but difficult. Me and my denshijisho are toughing it out. I'm trying to get Yuuri and Wolfram married. I know you can. I've seen the caps! But it's harder than it should be. I accidentally won Gunter's favor and Conrad is just too easy to please. Also, how they seem to treat Greta like a possible pairing option, even though she's not in the relationship health gauge chart thing, and it's a little awkward.
I've translated the prologue. And, I've been taking notes. And screen caps. I've figured out how to get to the scene where Yuuri accidentally show's a husband's intimacy to Wolfram and proposes a shotgun wedding over the scandal, but beyond that I'm currently SOL. It's still an awesome scene, though. I love when Dorskaskos busts into the room and starts gloating that he won the castle betting pool on who Yuuri would finally hook up with. And Celi busting out the wedding dresses isn't bad, either.
I'm such a freak. I'll get back to job stuff and sewing soon. Really. I promise.

It's sunrise right now!
Hey, random... are you gonna go to AI this year? I'm not sure I will. It was so incredibly lame last year that the only reason I'd go at all is to see you, and nobody will even live in IA by August, so we'd need a hotel room.
Re: It's sunrise right now!
I have no idea? I've gone to every single AI since 2001 so I'm thinking I would. These days it gives me a chance to hang out with my college friends, too. Even if the con is blah, I tend to love AI. I even loved last year. >_> Actually, last year was really really fun to me....
Re: It's sunrise right now!
The only fun thing at AI'08 was hanging out with youse guys to me. The con itself was... severely lacking in entertainment IMHO. Like, I could have just sat around and watched people and not bought a badge at all and gotten the same experience--perhaps better, even, b/c I wouldn't have dropped $50 on a badge. But if you and the gang go and get a hotel room, I'll join in. (If you choose to stay with friends, that's cool, too. I'll just swing by town to see you or something, but not stay.)
Re: It's sunrise right now!
As for poetic licence... GO with it! Let the yarn be your inspiration~~~ Flourish within your limits~~~
That works! Ah, my precious Naruto. It wouldn't be a con without you, either, you know! Even a short appearance would be nice. At least as it stands now we'd have a good 4 people to share a room should we all up and decide to go. *shrugs* It's a long way away. By then even Hotaru will have graduated and who knows who will be employed and where we'll all be living?
Re: It's sunrise right now!
I know I'll be here for the first part of August at least. My brother is getting married on the 8th, so I'm sticking around for that. I'll just wait to move to Orlando until after AI. (Hopefully I'll manage to finish my MT course and find a job by then!)
Re: It's sunrise right now!
Nice!

I'm about to watch the final two KKM eps from season 3 (is this the end of the series?), so a bit of YuuRam is just what I need...
