"Raiding an Englishman's fridge is like dating a nun. You're never gonna get the good stuff."

I hope everyone had a pleasant holiday those of you who celebrated. I did. We got together at my aunt's house for a delicious dinner. We had a few extra people, so it was pretty full, which was good. The more the merrier as they say.

We rose our glasses to acknowledge my uncle's cancer free diagnosis. *w00t* Then, a friend of my cousin's brought henna, and gave us henna tattoos. Mine is a swirly pattern on my wrist. I'll post pictures once I download them from my camera.

For some reason, a few of the songs on my iPod won't play. They play perfectly fine on my iTunes, but not on my iPod. Strange. And they happen to be songs I really like, too… *mutters*

Still sorting documents at work. I made a decent dent though, once I got a rhythm going. However, I may run out of room in the filing cabinet before too long.

Well, TriMax ended at 102 chapters. I read a short summary, but I hope to get some scanlastions of it soon. I think Hellsing might be ending soon too. So that makes two more of my series that ended recently. But, I still have others going strong.

And, speaking of which, two more days until I get my hands on Saiyuki Reload 7 and the luscious goodness of Youkai!Hakkai. *sighs*

I haven't received my copy of Runaways 25 yet. If I don't get it by Wednesday, I'll pick it up at the comic store while I'm out along with Buffy 2.

glad to hear the good news about your uncle!

PS--Nuns get a bad rap. I try to change that in my work:)

Yes, it it. Verily.


Actually, I got that quote from a Buffy episode. I thought it was funny.

Yay henna! That's so much fun. I had a good Easter too. How much chocolate do you have left now? ;)

I never got any except my mom bought me a bag of Nestle's Crunch eggs. I haven't eaten them yet.

Nice! I got a solid bunny, creme egg and large egg shaped cookie from my parents, and bought a bunch of my own. Most of it is gone now. *headdesk*

Yeah, I mostly buy my own. Mostly Reese's Peanut Butter Cups and Chocolate Pocky...

Ayep. I have almost 10 boxes of it stocked up. I'm lucky I was able to find a store that carries it. I am so addicted to the stuff...

When Hellsing Ultimate was announced the Manga-ka said that it would be roughly two years before the series would end (I think thats in volume form)... and a third year for the Ultimate anime to also finish. So yeah... it'll be ending (in chapters) fairly soon.

Yeah, I think I heard he was going to end it at 10 volumes. Volume 8 came out not that long ago, so we have at least two more to go. Plus, it seems things are starting to wind down in the chapters, so it'll most likely be within the year, if not early next year depending on how much he puts out within the time frame.
