Much-Needed Update
Sorry that I've been gone so long, but things have been hell, lately. The past two months have been like one big, morbid joke, that just doesn't know when to stop.
It all started in early March, when Grandpa decided to have hip-replacement surgery on a whim. While he was recovering, Grandma passed on. It's something that I've been preparing for, for years, but it still hit me pretty hard. After all that happened, we're told that Grandpa had an infected wound on his back, and they had to do another surgery on him. Just before they started, Aunt Marty went to check on him, and she collapsed. (At least she collapsed in the best place possible.) The diagnosis is a mix of her MS, stress, and too much activity. As for Grandpa, the surgery was successful, but he isn't looking too good. I went to check on him, the other day, and I'm not liking what I'm seeing. So, I'm preparing myself for losing him, too.
As for me, I'm just the same as always. Looking for work, trying to catch up on the latest anime, preparing for A-Kon, and trying to take care of myself. I feel like my job search is at another stand-still, but I also feel like I'm about to get lucky. Until then, I'm looking into various kinds of volunteer work. I'm trying to get into the library, but I'm also trying to help out at A-Kon. For a poor person, such as myself, doing that would be awesome. (Free pass and boarding!) Plus, it would look good on my resume.
For the recent anime, I found some good ones. During the winter season, I did something that I hadn't done since Code Geass. I burned a series onto discs, until I can get an official copy. And what was the series? Level E! Yeah, people are raving about Madoka, but Level E was so much more amusing, IMO. I tried to watch Madoka, but it was too depressing, for me. Great soundtrack, but I just couldn't get that into it. :\
This season, I'm rather behind. All the crap that's been happening, has been taking a toll on my anime viewing. However, I have started watching a few different series. So far, I've seen: Tiger & Bunny, Sekai-ichi Hatsukoi, Enma-kun, and Hyouge Mono. I'm going to start working on Blue Exorcist, today, and maybe Hanasaku Iroha and Nichijou. I'm a little leery of the latter two, since I'm not into the whole "Cute girls doing cute things, for the sake of being cute." thing. Nah. I'm more into "Cute creatures doing cute things, for the sake of being cute.". XD
So far, though, I can't decide whether Enma-kun or Hyouge Mono is my top pick. I like Enma-kun for the over-the-top perverted humor, awesome Masaaki Endoh OP, and seiyuu (Koyasu uses his Kururu voice for Kappaeru!), but I'm totally enjoying Hyouge Mono for the tea fetishism. And I thought Ariabert Tytania had a tea fetish. Sasuke has him beaten in spades! The guy freakin' gets off on tea wear. (Even fondled his wife, while thinking of his new tea cup. lol)
Well, I'm gonna try to get out and go for a walk, to clear my head. Although, my head will probably feel worse, after I come back. Allergies have been killer, this year.
