The wonders of Netflix
I think that there is something I need to admit to you guys...I have been spending a lot of time watching a Japanese show called "Playful Kiss" on Netflix. I walked into my sister's room and she was watching it, I sat down for a minute and that was it. How can a show so dramatic, ridiculous (yet hilarious), and frustrating be so hard to stop watching?!
The interesting thing about watching Japanese shows (like anime) is that their culture is so different so there are moments when some context doesn't make sense with the translation of what they are saying (or it does but their words seem harsher than the characters seem to take them). Then, of course, there is the fact that they are actually speaking Japanese. The odd thing about it is...you kind of forget they aren't speaking English after a while.
Anyway...confession done. I had better go see if my sister is watching a new episode without me. It's basically all we have done today (other than yard work...gross). Hopefully I can do something more productive tonight like working on music or on my Harry Potter poster. ;)
Peace out nerdies!
P.S. I know your curious so you should just go watch the show. As dramatic as it can get, it is also wildly hilarious. ;)

The joys of ThinkGeek.com
I will never shop anywhere else again...well accept for amazon.com of course...and maybe the grocery store...and maybe Barnes and Noble.
You see, in my last post I mentioned that I had an amazon gift card and that I wasn't sure what to use it on...I found the perfect item. Luckily amazon and many other companies work together on the same site so I stumbled across the oh so wonderful think geek (which I was actually already subscribed to on youtube I just hadn't ever actually been to their website yet) which brought to me many money spending options. The item I finally settled on was chosen simply because it made me laugh so hard I couldn't breath. By the time I woke up (after passing out from the lack of oxygen my brain was getting due to the laughter) I had clicked the "add to cart" button...the point of no return.
Let me just say, this can of unicorn meat is all I hoped it would be.
Of course...Katara doesn't seem to be too thrilled about my recent purchase, but I am.
I am also changed forever. I think I spend more time on think geek looking for future purchases (like the star trek enterprise pizza cutter I absolutely must have) than I do completing productive tasks. I love the internet and boy do I love the nerdy things you can find on here.
