So I've been very seriously lurking ever since I came back from San Francisco with the plague. I don't usually get this sick just from colds! I'm kinda sorta starting to feel better (except for the headache and the coughing like I'm in the end stages of consumption) but damn. I've barely been to class all week - I went to linguistics on Mon and NaNo yesterday, work training Mon night, and I made sure to turn in my kanji homework, but that's all. Aprt of it is not feeling up to class, and part of it is not feeling up to /getting/ to class; a 15 minute walk seems like a bit much when a shower knocks me out. So yeah, I've been seeing a lot of my room and my bed this week. DX
Things What I Have Done Instead Of Going To Class:
read every sporking and mockery of the Twilight series I can - it's like watching a train wreck, I swear to god. I know the books are horrendous drivel, but I can't...look...away...the sprakly vampires! The bad teenage romance angst! The complete failure of anything resembling a logical plot! The abuse of the word chagrin! The emergency c-section of mutant vampire hybrid baby by teeth! (Remember kids: Twilight means never having to say you're kidding)
read about famous horrific serial killers - It's a hobby, okay? I think I needed to look up the West Memphis 3 for some reason and things escalated from there. Yeah.
watched Antique Bakery, aka the anime about gay pastry chefs - mere words cannot describe how cracktastically wonderful this series is, but here's a brief summary for you.
Tachibana is the wealthy ex-businessman who opens a bakery (mostly to meet chicks). He has Angst because of being kidnapped once when he was a small child and being fed cake (I DON'T KNOW OKAY).
Ono is his pastry baker. They knew each other in high school, when Ono came out to him and Tachibana violently rejected his feelings. Ono contemplated suicide but instead became a gay Don Juan, and has been fired from every job he's had because his male co-workers inevitably fall in love with him.
Kanda is /adorable/. He used to be a world-class boxer, but he injured his eyes, and had to give up boxing or go blind. He shows up at the bakery to work as a counter boy, but convinces Ono to let him be his apprentice.because he really likes cake.
Chikage is Tachibana's house-boy. They grew up together, because his family works for Tachibana's. He is being trained to be a waiter, but he's kind of very inept. At everything. He is totally in love with Ono. It's terribly awkward and sweet.
Put them all in a small bakery-like space and allow hijinks to ensue. It's fantastic!
