Was he any good? He looks like he'd be good. Was he any good?

Well, I did filing today. I had a brief moment where my frustration was beginning to get to me, but it didn't last very long fortunately. I'll have more to do tomorrow I know. Oh, well. One day at a time is my new motto.

Mom and I visited the traveling Vietnam Memorial at the park this weekend. I did see the real one in D.C, but this one was just as moving. Mom left something in remembrance for a guy she knew at school who was killed over there. There was a memorial for the War Dogs that had gone over. I almost became emotional at that point, actually. I guess different things affect different people differently.

Saturday wasn't too bad either. Mostly what I did (as well as everyone else there) was pull out the documents generated by the computer charts so that the remainder of the charts can be scanned into the computer charts later on. It actually does make sense in a way.

When I'm out Wednesday to get my oil changed (and to do a few other things), I might look into getting a longer Ethernet cord. Right now, I'm sitting at the end of my bed since that's as far as the cord will reach for my laptop. Therefore, I have no back support and it can get a bit uncomfortable after too long. I'd like to be able to lay back like I could when my AirPort was working...

I was able to find volume 5 of Kaze Hikaru Saturday after work. I was so excited. Not as much Okita/Sei squish, but still a good read. I still haven't received my volumes of Furuba I ordered form YesAsia even though they were supposed to have been shipped Wednesday. IIRC, it took a while from my last order from them to get to me. However, I did get my recent issue of Runaways today, so that'll sooth my annoyance to a degree...

And I think The Red Tide is about to rear it's ugly head. I'm more hormonal than usual, as my subject line will attest to.

Yes, it is. Very much so.

Oh, I'm fine. My shoulder aches a little from how I had positioned it when I was working Saturday...

Lucky you being able to actually get your Kaze Hikaru. It seems that Peacemaker Kurogane has gone on permanent indefinite hiatus. *cries* And in the last couple of issues there was very little Hijikata/Okita squish. *sad* However, I have heard that TokyoPop has obtained the rights to translate both the first series and PMK, so that will make me happy if it happens anytime soon, and is a good translation. Of course I realize that we fangirl different series and different couples, but it's all Okita, so it's all good, right? :)

Sounds reasonable to me! They're all bishies (well... except for Sei).

[coastal-spirit.livejournal.com]

And Sei pretends to be a guy, doesn't she?

[snapdragon76.livejournal.com]

Well, yes. Only Okita knows the truth...

[coastal-spirit.livejournal.com]

I probably should try that series. I'm so attached to Okita from PMK that I don't know if I could get used to him any other way. However, I like Saitou from both Rurouni Kenshin and PMK, even though I prefer him in RK. Does Saitou play a significant part in Kaze Hikaru?

[snapdragon76.livejournal.com]

Oh, yes. Very.


*SPOILER ALERT!!!!*

He falls for Sei, not realizing she's really a girl. Needless to say, he's a bit weirded out by it.

So far, five volumes are available in English. You should definitely check it out!
