Going to bed....and then to BWI for Philidelphia and ultimately, Baltimore.

As those say in kawaii fangirl Japanese...

( Hold onto your hats )

See you next Sunday! :D

Are. you. KIDDING ME.

I....this....just....

You know what. I'll edit this later to state my full opinion. I'm about ready to throw my work monitor across the room in frustration over this.

*sulks off*

EDIT: Ok, rant on.

( RAAAAAAWR WHY SENATORS WHY )

So...I got a raise. A decent one, no less.

( Stuff about my state and so on )

Got a bathing suit for my trip, got two new bookshelves to put stuff on, and am discussing with my family what to get at Otakon and what to do there. I will be looking for a hardback edition of Artbook 3 (because the one I have is a paperback Chinese version) and Materials Collection, as well as bootleg if need be DVDs of the seasons and movies. And if I can snag a cel of Sailor Moon or 5Ds SatAM (the latter of which I DID see last time I was at Otakon in 2004!) I will be sufficiently happy. I WILL LOOK FOR OTHER STUFF WHICH I WILL NOT SAY UNTIL I HAVE COME HOME! LIKE A 5DS DOLL! MWAHAHAHA~I just revealed my dastardly scheme, didn't I. CRAP!

And of course, always have to look for THE HOLY GRAIL of all Sailor Moon items aside from, you know, kidnapping Naoko Takeuchi. Which I think some people might object to. So, I'll just stick to looking for Volume ∞ and hope my dream of it being 45 dollars on a forgotten dealer's shelf comes true.

I actually dreamt that once, a long time ago. You have no idea how disheartening it was to wake up and find out it wasn't real. I was a saaad panda that day, yes I was. .___.

*goes back to work, and to get herself ready...*

If anyone here has any doubt that my state elects people who may be more insane than me?

Look no further!

And this isn't even the whole statement. I can only imagine the whole of the GREAT CONSPIRACY according to Diaz.

There's really only one way to describe this. You know what that means.

( Yeah. )

In other news, I am starting to get pumped for my trip. I will be so glad once next Saturday comes around.

I swear, the Senate will only get done the day I come back from Baltimore. It cannot be a coincidence this is happening right now.

But, enough of my paranoid and crazy superstitions.

This is for hedienna:

( I suggest everyone else RUN )</center>

That is all.

EDIT: In other news, I can't spell hieadenna. NOW that is all.

I'm not even going to bother to summarize. Just...see for yourself.

Also, if my layout and profile suddenly starts looking different today...it's totally in your head. :o

I'm sort of back after a three-week disappearance. Sort of.

Usually I'm a bit better than that, and I'm sure the four people or so who tend to talk to me a lot on AIM or on LJ are going "Golly-gee-willikers, Papirini! Where have you been, it's like you just up and left us without warning! Have you been distracted by them roleplayings and Maplestories and your mom again?"*

The answer is, no. Sadly.

( But I so wish it was... )


*I don't even know where 'golly-gee-willikers' comes from, but I know I've heard it before. :/

FINALLY. I AM OFFICIALLY MOVED.

HOORAY!

And now onto more important things. Because I haven't posted here in forever! D:

( Diabetes and schools with guns and WTF DAVID CARRADINE IS DEAD!? )

And this is the only thought I will give to you about it.

( So not trying to make a meme of my own, lol - there's a big spoiler, just as a warning )

Dear Universe. Given that I haven't posted here in a while, I have found myself with many, many questions.

The questions being:

-Why am I going to Otakon all three days? And why do I keep wanting to do a panel there? Everyone that I'd want on the panel isn't going! I do need to talk to dad about lessening the amount of days I'll be going, seriously.

-Simon Peggs as Scotty? Really?

-...How come I didn't know the difference between Simon Peggs and John Simm, for that matter?

-WHAT is so addicting about 'Boom Boom Pow'? I DON'T GET IT.

-Would it be wrong of me to use this for a meme? Even if it's one of my co-worker's husband's nature photos?

-Why am I wanting to do mecha!Usagi?

-Did you know...

And...how much more do I need to pack before I'm ready to move?

That is all.

Sincerely,
Me

IT'S APRIL 15th

I hope you all remembered to file your taxes!!

...

ALL OF YOU WHO ARE AMERICAN!

*cackle*

It's been a long week. And even though it's Friday, it's going to just get longer.

Why can't I just stay home and do what I have to do to get packed? :/

Obviouslty, being American, I was little aware of who Julie Myerson was until I read this. Afterwards. however, I went and looked into it, as I do with most news stories that catch my attention. The results make me glad I was born with the mom I have.

( The term 'misery mom-moir' doesn't really begin to describe it )

Yeah.

In other news, YAY I KNOW WHAT ELSE I'LL BE DOING IN DC THIS JULY!! That is all. :)

IT'S OVER

IT'S OVER

IT'S BASICALLY OVER!!!

BUDGET WILL BE PASSED!!!!

I DON'T HAVE TO GO BACK IN THIS WEEKEND FOR ANOTHER 24 HOUR SHIFT!!!!!

MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA~

*collapses and dies, bbl*

I was unaware that was an arrestable offense.

WTF, Florida. WTF. Remind me not to pass gas inside one of your schools.

For this, you get a macros, the first ever in my journal:

( CLICK FOR SPOILERS? )

On the other hand, maybe the authorities aren't such idiots after all!

Kudos to you, Sonchai Yoosabai. You make autistic nerds everywhere proud. Just don't add a Sailor Moon costume to your repertoire, that might be a little creepy during fire rescues.

Aside from that, in my little corner of Earth, not much has happened since yesterday, save for work being long (again), me being tired and falling right into bed (again), and my allergies kicking in in celebration of the yearly spring post-nasal drip (...again).

To those wondering if I'm dead, I'm not. We are getting into the crunch time before the fiscal years starts in my state, and the hours will be hellishly volatile, I fear, just as my sleep schedule has been. So, if I don't talk to you or if my tags (for those who know what I mean) are slow enough to go backwards, this is why. It is not on purpose, I swear.

But, there is some good news. I did my tax return this weekend. I will be getting a four-digit number back.

*squee*

I liked it. It was not the absolute greatest comic movie EVAR Persepolis takes that one, sorry, but given the source material? Probably the best effort that could be given. Which is actually pretty good.

( Concise thoughts are a go - spoilers are a given! )

In other news, this should be incorporated into a vampire movie. Honestly, that is a cool (is funny) solution to stopping a vampire.

I am finally going to see Watchmen tonight. Yay!

And in other news...this. Is sick. It's really hard to understand why this man decided to do what he did. And it's very troubling, to say the very least, especially when you get into the specifics of what happened (y'know, the whole "I trapped and raped my daughter and had kids by her" aspect of it, which in and of itself is...nrrrgh, yeah). And the father claiming he did it because the daughter because she was causing waves and not doing what she was told...

I mean, this woman was basically inside a hole around the size of my apartment (which is not big) since a few months before my first birthday. And her mother apparently believed everything said about her and the kids that seemed to randomly appear out of nowhere, even though some of it is pretty incredulous when you piece it together. She should have been suspiscious when she was told she was never allowed in the basement. I would have been. Then again...she's apparently still in denial about what happened.

It's one of those things that makes me glad I have the family I have.

LJ-cut for some adult-ish things. So if you are squeamish, don't click. Otherwise, click away.

( WORST (if admittedly funny) EXCUSE EVER. No, seriously. )

Also, if I heard strange meowing coming out of my couch? I'd probably look a little harder in that couch for whatever was making it. D:
