Last night I made pizza. Almost perfect, but I forgot to cook the crust a bit before putting the sauce on. Also, the dough stuck to the pan really badly. Ben suggested I dust the pizza pan with flour next time. I think that's a very good idea.

I watched the last ep of Paradise Kiss. I was rather unimpressed by how they went about ending it. I am kinda upset that they neglected to mention who Caroline's fiance was. Poor guy gets left out.... And I prefer him over George so much. (If you want to know, it's in the manga.)

I didn't get to bed until like, 1:30. Ben had a really long game. He barely got any sleep. But at least he's not playing any game tonight, so he can get his much needed rest.

I'm baking bread right now so that when I wake up (I am going back to bed in only a moment) I can have hot, fresh bread for breakfast.

Thought that makes me seem like a conspiracy nut: Just after it's revealed that Bush has illegally been spying on Americans, and just as people are starting to react, and just as politicians are starting to discuss how to deal with this..... OMG!BinLadenTape!!! I am horribly suspicious of this tape. First there's the timing of it. It comes out right now? At this moment? When there are so many scandals and hearings and stuff in politics? Sounds like a distraction to me. Second of all, it's audio only. Obviously voices can never be impersonated, right? :P And the common person is so familiar with Bin Laden's voice to begin with... So yeah, I'm a nut. But stuff like this makes me nervous. The may I pay attention, the less comfortable I am with the world.
Yesterday's corn bread didn't really turn out as corn bread. More like bread with some corn flour in it. It wasn't bad, but not what I was hoping for. I've eaten most of it already though.

The stir fry for dinner looked fine and tasted fine but smelled suspiciously like pig. Not ham, but a real live smelly pig on a farm. Ben, never being exposed to such a stench, didn't really mind the smell. It bothered me more. It reminds me of that time my dogs are leftovers covered in bbq sauce, which made their farts and poop smell like the sauce. Can't eat that particular brand anymore because it reminds me of doggy poo. (Note: Not the movie Doggy Poo, which in itself is a terrible creation.)

I thought I was going to cassandra's last night, but I figured she was busy. Maybe I should have called... I don't know. I hate phones so much. Instead, ben and I watched lots of paradise kiss and yakitate. I am caught up on everything now. I still hate george but pierrot is fantastic.

After going to bed, I dreamed about Puzzle Pirates. Instead of it being a game, it was acted out in real life. This made my mom upset because she didn't want me out sailing on a boat alone. I told her it was fine and that the water wasn't even that deep and it was all for fun, but she insisted she come along with me. This made being in character very difficult because every time I did something piratical my mother would sit there and make fun of me. (She did that all childhood. If I ever did anything that wasn't everyday normal, she'd make fun of me. It made me too afraid to even do audience participation stuff at show.)

Anyway, we hit some rough water and mom took the helm and well, sunk my ship. I was doing fine without her help. Grrrr. Then on an island I was complaining about the cost of things (Thanks to mom I had to replace everything.) to no one in particular. This mean person comes up to me and starts yelling at me that if I can't handle the costs on the regular islands, I should go back to the newbie ones. I was upset because everyone complained about the cost of stuff. And I was singled out to be yelled at for it.

I woke up really tired this morning, and I think I'm going to go back to bed. But first I want to check the crock pot to make sure everything is working right. Then sleep.
I win! I didn't cry for once!

After work, ben and I went food shopping. Bought lots of er, food. Then we went to bed early because I kept ben up late all night yesterday with my crying.

Before bed, I set paradise kiss to download. But I'm not going to watch it until I get home this afternoon. Otherwise I'll spend the whole day wanting to eat babies.

Also, there is a small dog on my lap who looks very comfortable.
Hello Kitty + Paradise Kiss = ??? )

I am baking cookies. That way I'll have no excuse for not going to anime club tomorrow. I'll feel bad if I don't go after all this work.

It's sad though. The cookies are kinda bland. Not sweet enough or tasty enough. :(
The anime moves so fast! Caroline and George....together...and stuff...already!? I swear that happened much later. Much much later. I should probably go check, but the books are like, 2 massive yards away and I don't want to leave my nice warm blanket nest.

I wonder how George managed such an act through his pants. I am going to assume the front was undone and he had no underwear on?

Also, I think the whole scene was prettied up from the manga. I distinctly recall more pain than that. But then again, I should check first before making grand claims.

Stupid bookcase. Why must you be so far away?
One of the apartment complexes by mine left their sprinklers on. So this morning it looked like they got hit with their own personal ice storm. It was very odd and distressing.

I do not approve of this "cold" thing. Last night, it was so cold I had trouble sleeping. No matter how tight I curled up, or how close I was to ben, I couldn't stop shivering. It was like that last year of college all over again! And my thermostat is all wonky, so I can't figure out a proper temperature to set it to. While I don't need it "tropical" while I sleep, I would prefer something a little warmer than "ice age."

And parakiss 6 just came out. I must go delete things out of Tortuga right now so I have space for it! Eeek!
Paradise-Kiss Store Opens in Tokyo (source)

Temporary Store For Popular Anime and Manga

On November 19th a store focusing exclusively on Paradise Kiss opened in Tokyo's Odaiba district. The store will remain open until March 31st and carries items related to the Paradise Kiss anime and manga, including a clothing line inspired by the manga.

The Paradise Kiss online shop gives a look at a few of the Paradise Kiss related items for sale in the store, including a recreation of the Butterfly Ring featured in the manga.

The store's grand-opening party, open to the general public, feature Tommy February, singer of the anime's theme song.
Today has been significantly better than yesterday. Nothing exploded.

I got to sleep late and then have a good breakfast of bacon and eggs. With spinach. Ben requested spinach for breakfast. :P

Then I played with sculpey for a little bit. I attached strings to the charms that I baked last night, and made a few new charms today. These things are so stupidly fun to make.

When I got tired of that, I watched Parakiss 4. This ep was suspiciously low-key. As if they knew that if they made it do too much, I would freak out like I usually do. Or maybe I've just accepted the inevitable or something. It's not like I didn't yell at the show at all. Just yelled less.

Then more sculpey. Oh how I love sculpey. I am learning tricks to make things faster and without fingerprints.

Eventually I needed a break, so I bugged ben. He was playing city of villians but he was able to stop to pay attention to me. So fa approve of this game because it doesn't take up as much of his attention as warcraft did. (Ben cancelled his warcraft account for me this morning. He must really love me!)

To thank ben for being absolutely perfect, I made a fancy dinner for him. Curry, rice, and bread. And right now ben is sauteing mushrooms too. It will be so fancy!

So yes, today good. :)
Today I went to download the ED to Paradise Kiss. It was an utter failure. Why? Franz Ferdinand. :(

Apparently he wrote the song. And it's been out since August. Curse you music industry!!!!

So yeah, I can't manage to dig through all the legitimate stuff to find an mp3 of it. Poooo. Maybe after more episodes are out, there will be something. Or maybe I just haven't looked hard enough.

Why does popular music have to be catchy?
I just watched the second episode of Parakiss. The doom begins!

I should either stop spazzing and yelling while I watch the show, or stop watching the show.
I finally watched Paradise Kiss. I was afraid to because it made me so angry reading the thing. So when I started the first episode, I sorta felt like I was at the top of a roller coaster ready for much much doom.

But so far so good. Everything went nice and slow and all was good.

Only....WHAT WAS WITH THE SCENE CHANGES!? I can deal with the loud angry flowers, but the weird monster things freaked me out. And I agree with [livejournal.com profile] scortia that the super deformed stuff was annoying.

Miwako is far too cute. I want to be like Miwako.
holytoastr: (sewing)
I typed up everything I needed to type for work. And then went home early. Wheee. Time to sew while ben sleeps.

Oh, there's a trailer up for ParaKiss. Now that I see the trailer and remember the manga, do I want to go through the sadness all over again?
Why didn't anyone tell me that Paradise Kiss was going to be animated!?!?!?!?! *squee*
