Weiss

OK... so I ended up watching episodes 6 through 9 of the Gluhen and then rewatching the beginning of the OAV... heehee. Tis difficult to get work done and watch at same time, since it requires me to read along with the subtitles all the time. So tomorrow I'm going to have to double my efforts as far as work goes. Ah well. Twas worth it. That show is just WAY too addictive! I just start really getting into an episode and it ends. So I just have to watch the next! heehee
OK... so then I spent some time reading someone's three Weiss Kreuz sneezefics *G* I think it's probably my third or fourth reading of them... and I think I finally "feel" the characters well to really understand and enjoy the stories a great deal. So thank you... again ;-) Especially 'Gentian Rain' *G*

TERRIBLE plot bunnies are bombarding me as we speak :-) One day I WOULD like to write a fic or two with them... possibly/hopefully a sneezefic... but we shall see what happens. Too many unfinished stories as is! :-)

But those boys! And Ken! Oh, and Omi- I swear, if he picks up that darling little picture of the 4 of them one more time I'm going to cry! And Aya... Mmmmm... that boy is too gorgeous in glasses. And naked Youji! Who's complaining?! He's not smoking as much either... which is a plus for me. And Ken... :-) Yeah, I am well aware I stopped watching right before episode 10 in which there's a "good" Ken/Omi scene... it's something to look forward to after I get more work done *G* Yummy Weiss boys motivation!

Yeah, yeah... I'm rambling like a fangirl... I'll cut it out soon, I promise :-)

Summer showers

There is nothing quite as lovely in the summer as a nice, sudden thunderstorm. My first summer in this town, it rained almost every single day between 4:30 and 5:15 like clockwork. My class got out at 4:15 and sometimes I'd make it back to my dorm ok, while other times we'd all just stand around after class inside and watch the rain together until it let up after 5. Huge downpours, with wind and thunder and lightning. And afterwards everything is fresh and cool damp, instead of this icky sunny, moist heat and humidity all day.

I just got a weather bug warning about a thunderstorm here, and not 30 seconds after reading it, there was a huge thunderclap *G* Gotta love it. Bring on the rain!

Dinner & a TV Show

Wow... veggie meatloaf exceeded my expectations! Mashed potatoes were incredible for a tv dinner, there was just enough sauce, and the peas and corn were my favorite part. Tasted fantastic- of course, I've never eaten real meatloaf so I can't compare, but what I just ate was yummy and that's all that matters to me! And the whole thing done with no meat, fish, poultry, eggs, dairy, GMOs or bioengineered ingredients. I'm very impressed.

And I just watched Trading Spaces: family! (on every Sunday at 7pm and 11pm). It was fantastic! Yay! I am SO addicted to that show! I watch it nearly every day, and sometimes 4 times on Saturdays. The designers were adorable with the little kids and everybody worked hard- I think it was nice to see the team dynamic and the parents seemed to have fun with their kids while still getting a break from them at times. And both families loved their rooms- which makes for a good first episode. Not to mention that the new host, Joe, is a cutie! Good job, TLC!

And I watched episode 10 of Weiss Kreuz Gluhen this afternoon- cried when the Velvet Underworld song started... then had to watch the sequence over again a half dozen times before I caught all of it. *sniffles* Just like the old days *snuggles Omi* Yeah. Um. Still worried about Youji, though. And GEEZ! Just when I was starting to get used to a lack of Schwartz! LOL I really, really liked the episode, though I am worried about Aya and Youji. And that nice Ken and Omi interplay was adorable! 'Hey Persia? How's it going? Descending from up above to boss us around in person, huh? Let me give you an affectionate punch for that' lol

Looking forward to watching the all new Dead Zone tonight! (I'm nearly going through Anthony Michael Hall withdrawl!) And hopefully I can finish up 'Giving' and get it posted. I got it back when I woke up this morning, all nice and beta-ed :-) YAY! :-)
