I think I forget how to actually update one of these things. >_> Well, I figure I should get back in the habit of it, so . . . . Hi!

Well, on the "new news" front, I need sleep. This isn't really new, but the method by which I need sleep is sorta new this time around. That DreamOn stuff is actually pretty helpful, in that it makes me sleep, but I kept waking up starting at around... seven, and I just gave up recently. But I've been doing this crap thing where I've either been not sleeping at all (hi Chibi), or sleeping like eighteen, twenty hours (WORSE THAN NO SLEEP God that makes me feel like crap). And yes, I've done that. I need to stop doing that or I'm going to end up doing it on a work day, and that will not be good at all. I also don't need to skip meals on sleep problems. I've already been sick recently, I don't need it to come back with a vengeance.

I need to finish my part for 1nthenight. Currently I'm also trying to wrack my brain for a novel idea that . . . doesn't suck and I actually feel like writing? I sort of feel like trying a NaNoWriMo next month, for practice and because I need something to make me keep my hand in. I haven't really written in forever, and that is BAD. I figure I have a week to think of an idea and a week to develop it, which about the time Baty suggests in NPNP anyway, so . . . that's good.

. . . . I almost typoed that "eyedea." I really need to resist the idea of a nap. Also, I am trying to do my ". . ."s properly but I feel silly. Whee. *stumbles off to eat something*

Yeah. Who's stupid? I'M STUPID! Who's awake at almost 5:00 in the morning? I AM! Reiterating: WHO'S STUPID?

...'Kay, I'll stop shouting now. XD Just a few things to say here, really.

One, I have a MySpace account. It's Bird of Hermes, in case you're interested. It's stupid and has nothing up at the moment, but that's okay. Maybe everyone will SHUT UP ABOUT ME GETTING A MYSPACE ACCOUNT NOW. :D *stops shouting, again, because it's a bad nethabit to get into!*

Two, I rejoice, because the new Hellsing OVA is coming out in Japan next month, on February 10th! Yes, that's right! It's not a second season, continuing on from the show, either. It's based entirely off the manga. Which means... yes. Millenium's getting animated. It seems, from the preview, that young, 1944, WWII-era Walter is, too (which means, hopefully, Girlycard in all his glory XD); we can only hope.

Remember. February 10, 2006. The first Hellsing OVA release. Each episode will be 50 minutes; there will be 20 episodes. It will take 3 years. Have fun.

*totally does the Rejoicing Happy Dance*

Three, I found scanslations of Hellsing: The Dawn. Therefore, I now have Chapters 1-4, translated, on my computer. (And for the record, yes, Alucard looks like a girl, and Walter is a smarmy little bastard what the heck.) I also have Chapter 5 untranslated, just the scans... which I admit is pretty useless but I get to look at the beautiful artwork. Which includes the Captain revealing himself as a werewolf and actually shapechanging. So that's okay.

...

*calm, sudden silence*

.....

SQUEEEEEE OVA COMING OUT AND I HAVE THE DAAAAAAAAWN~~~~~

*ahem* Sorry, even I have to totally all-out fangirl-spazz occasionally. And this, this is is spazz-worthy indeed. ^_____^

Four, and finally, and most important... in celebration of my H:tD scans... I have icons.

Yes, there're fifteen... seven of Girlycard Alucard and eight of Walter. But they're all from the same base, just with different text. And two of the Walter ones are pretty much the same text, too, just one has a slightly disturbingly-placed smiley face. XD; So it's not so bad as all that.

( Enjoy! )

Okay. I'm totally done now. And I'm a-goin' back to bed. Will cross-post this to my MySpace thinger tomorrow, somehow. G'night. ♥

So. Tomorrow I hope to post my review for the first chapter of zarla's Johnny the Homicidal Maniac fanfic, "Vargas." It is a really impressive, intelligently written, psychological-study-of-a-fic. It chronicles the life of one of Johnny's victims in the comic, a man named Edgar Vargas, if he'd actually had a life instead of being killed by our lovely Maniac.

Well. Then I realized that, as the first chapter starts abruptly, I can't even really recommend reading the fic unless you've read the comic--or at least the part of the comic that has Edgar in it.

Luckily, this is only four pages.

"Goblins" - page 1

"Goblins" - page 2

"Goblins" - page 3

"Goblins" - page 4

These links will only work for a week, people. That's seven days. Which means, after that, you won't be able to get 'em. If it's expired by the time you find this, well, just drop me a note in the comments here and I'll see about updating them. ^^

WARNING: These things contain blood, cursing, insanity, insane ramblings, more blood, threats, the following-through of threats, murder, religion, and a really really interesting weapon used to kill the main character of the fanfic I'm gonna be reviewing. Oh, and also, it's Johnny the Homicidal Maniac. Nny is enough of a warning by himself, isn't he?

DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN JTHM OR NNY OR EDGAR OR THE STORY "VARGAS" OR ZARLA OR ANYTHING WHATSOEVER. I may have put up the links to download this, but it's only four pages of like 172, and I'm not making any money out of this, so bug off. Please. *blink*

Download and read, people. Once you have, the reading (and reviewing) of "Vargas" may commense. *bows*

I lost The Game.

(About four times since first hearing about it TODAY asdfjkl;dfjk >< ARGH)

So. I bought a coonskin cap at Disney. :D :D :D I've always wanted one of those! But I never thought of myself as Davy Crockett, really.

Instead, I ran about the park occasionally going, "I AM DON QUIXOTE!" XD

Yeah. This was all Zarla's fault. Because I saw her AVAST YON WINDMILL picture just before leaving for Disney, it has infected my brain. So now my coonskin cap is, despite all evidence to the contrary, my Don Quixote hat. XDDD

Yes, now I go off to begin reviewing "Vargas." Seriously, guys, you need to read this. Best psychological-study-fic ever ♥

Quick post~ just to say~

I will not be on for the next two days (Mon & Tues) because of OMFG FAMILY TRIP TO DISNEY~~~

Magic Kingdom and MGM. W007.

^___________^ So very, very happy. Sorry that I won't be on, but hey! DISNEY~

And I'll review "Vargas Chapter 01: Replacement" on Wednesday, yes?

*goes to bed early cuz W007 W007 DISNEY~~~*

In a world where cyberization is commonplace, almost everyone has at least the slightest changes made: messing with their brains a bit to boost their thoughts and reaction time, improving their health and eyesight, and other such things. However, some families clung to their old religion, stating that cyberization was wrong and evil, and refused to be altered in any way.

One man came from such a family. He had a brilliant mind, but he was very sick. His body was horribly fragile, and he was wasting away even in his early twenties. His problem could be solved if only he would have the procedure, allow himself to be put into a cyberized body. If he didn't he would die.

His parents refused to let him have the operation, to "ruin" himself in such a way.

This man was a genius, and knew that his talent, his life, was being wasted. He worked for the Tokyo government to build robots and machines, large tanks that could be used in warfare. He was brilliant. He was dying. And he could be spared all of this, if only he could be put into a cyberized body. He had unlimited potential, his whole life before him, and his parents were letting him die because of some stupid belief system. Helpless and withering, his bitterness grew.

When he was on his deathbed, this man made his closest friend, a co-worker, promise to grant him one last wish: when he was dead, to put his downloaded memories and consciousness into one of the new tanks he had built for the government, the best of its kind. The friend was appalled, but what else could he do? He agreed.

And the man died.

In the tank, the man's consciousness took over. He broke free of the testing compound he was in, and headed straight for home. Straight for his parents. Straight for a cry of rage, a proclamation of hate, an attempt at revenge... a plea for redemption. Benediction.

( Everyone should see Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex. At least this once. )

I've been bored lately, and campfuckudie's Marco-mun has made an IRC quote page for Camp. Of course, I had to make text-based icons. So there. :P

WARNING: This is Camp Fuck You Die. Any and all quotes may make your brain explode and leak out your ears. Specifically, anyone in the Saiyuki, Star Wars, Three Kingdoms, Lupin III, both Animorphs AND Wraeththu, Fullmetal Alchemist, and/or Pokémon fandoms should Beware The Cut, seriously.

.....actually, they're not so bad as all that. Except for the Pokémon-related one, of course. And seriously, only two or maybe three will probably be funny if you don't know them. They're all pretty canon-heavy.

( Icons behind the cut (practicing my Brainbreak-Fu!) )

Cross-posted to campersfuckoff because I am a h0 am just that proud. :D

(And yes, there will be updates soon enough. I'm going to start reviewing the lovely Zarla's fanfic "Vargas," I think, if I ever get my ass in gear and start. >_> Soon. I promise~)

I guess I should be thankful that I chose not to accept notification emails from campfuckudie. I have notifications showing up randomly now, from weeks ago. Funny thing is, I'll get one, and delete it. And then, hours later, I'll get like five or six from random times all at once, and delete them... and then get three or four more. XD; Hey LJ, wouldn't it make more sense just to... I dunno. Send all of them at once?

I have a feeling this may go on for days. It amuses me. X3

Also... hey. Screw the Dear Santa letter. I'm totally supporting Alternative Christmas Lists, heh~



Submit your own plea to Cthulhu!

.......okay, okay, I do the Dear Santa too. XD

( LJ Cut for this one, woe D: )

In other news, Microsoft pwns me. So bad. >< I'll have to retake my computer class for sure, ugh. I am ded from Access-fu. (And Excel, kinda, omg. I'm only good at Word and PowerPoint! >O~~~) But I'm definitely passing Honors English and Education, so! I'm good :D?

...Never thought I'd fail at computers. Damn~~

Yes. Indeed. And I'm as surprised as you. XD;

Your 2005 Song Is

Feel Good Inc by Gorillaz "Love forever love is free. Let's turn forever you and me." In 2005, you were loving life and feeling no pain.

>D TOTAL, COMPLETE WIN.

Next time councilor apps open up on campfuckudie, I'd like to double-app with someone. So.

Who would like to app either Crowley or Aziraphale with me? Because I honestly don't care which one I play, I just want them in camp. Like, yesterday.

For those of you who don't care about RPs or Good Omens... um... Here's a live performance of Gorillaz for you. You think I'm kidding.

Yes. Yes, I did. Couldn't you just see it in the distance, last post? Way off there? Waving?

Well, it's here now. Reeaal fast. Like the knight in Monty Python.

30_lyrics - Go join it. Have fun. I will love you forever. ♥

Joined two actual challenge communities (bah, Contre la Montre! bah, I say! :P)... well, got approved for one and am waiting (im)patiently for the other. My first story's up on 30_smirks, and I'm surprisingly happy with it. o_O I'm waiting on crossovers100. Meh.

I pimp my story: Salesmen (Good Omens, Crowley/Aziraphale, light). That's it, really.

WHERE'S MY NEXT CHAPTER, CASTLE? See? I poke you here, too. :D

Need to write more. Need to... ugh. Stuff. Sleep. And memes, soon, I suppose, but sleep first.

My cat is a stupid beast who runs away from food. *eyetwitch* That is all.

.....okay, that is not all. I also want to see the anime Law of Ueki like mad now, and all because of Robert Haydn. (Nooo, not the singer, wotheck o.O) I loves me some psychoevilcuteangst boys like whoa (hello, Wrath~)!

Hooboy, I get to (re)watch Kakurenbo and Nightmare Before Christmas tonight~~~ *sleepy celebrations!* And possibly the first two episodes of Evangelion, if we're feeling up to it. I can't believe I haven't seen that yet. That's the Essential Anime, even above Akira in my book. ^^;;;; Much cooler and (somehow!) much more cracktastic as well, wot. XD;

And~ I have Nightmare Before Christmas manga~ :/ I'm still not sure whether I'm enthused or mildly freaked out over this. It reads back to front and right to left, too! >DDD And has all the little Japanese sound effects~~~

*does a little dance of joy, because tonight is just being SO COOL*

Off to dinner, and to be way more Halloween-y than I was on Halloween night...!

Hmm.... I have a busy schedule today. I'm in my third (and last) class at the moment... I'll be here for another 20 minutes, then I'm off--to work. *facepalm* I switched with my coworker Judy, because she had to babysit tonight; in return, she'll work for me Saturday, which is good because that's when Homecoming is. ^^;;;; So I guess it works out fine, but... ugh. I left home at 9PM and I won't be back 'til at least 10:30 tonight. *dies*

In other news... who else stared at the TV Saturday night and went "...............OH GOD WHUT o_O"?

( Cut here for 'Kakurenbo' spoilers, in case anybody cares )

If you just went through the trouble of reading that... I'm so sorry. *wince* I'm just tired, that's all. And work in an hour and a half. Funfun.

..........I wanna read A Clockwork Orange. *hums*

Sorry, folks. I also don't have much of a post. :D Maybe later.

Just entering to say... this weekend will pwn me. Worked last night from 5:00-11:00PM, and I'm going in again right now to work the 10:00-5:00 shift. And tomorrow, I work noon-8:00PM. _o_ *dead*

Sigh. Wonderful. This is gonna be fun. Maybe I'll post again tonight, when I'm not so rushed and tiiiired~

(PS: Castle? You see my work schedule, this weekend? :/ Yeah, maybe you can call... either Sunday, or earlier on Sat? Thanks much, and... sorry for the chapter delay! You got it now, right?)

*flails her way off to work*

And lo, I grab a whole bucking funch of new icons. :D I'm thinking of joining Fandom Wank, I totally am. Because, again: snarksexual. *snerk* This amuses me.

Which is good, because today, THE WORLD TRIED TO KILL ME. No, not other people. THE WORLD.

First, on the way to school (college), I choked on my bacon. Yes, this was an actually scary choking experience. Apparently, down the middle of the strips of our newly-aquired beef bacon, there's a loooong thin strip that cannot be broken or severed. Ever. And I tried swallowing it. *facepalm* Mom, next time there's evil killer strands of unbreakableness in my food, warn me before I eat it, plzkthx. >< Swallowing most of something, and then having the rest of it STICK IN YOUR THROAT AND GAG YOU HORRIBLY is no fun at all.

Then, the maniac in front of us slammed on his/her breaks. That was because the driver in front of him/her had decided ZOMG I WILL TURN NOW without putting on a turn signal or even slowing down first. This, needless to say, scared the crap outta me. (Though not as bad as the time we hit a baby deer omfg noooo~--ahem, yeah.) I'm just glad it didn't happen when I was choking, or I would have been dead.

Then, after school, we swung by my grandparents' house. (My Grammy's getting knee surgery tomorrow... she'll be gone for probably at least a week... pray for her and wish her luck!) And we discovered we had a nest of ants LIVING IN OUR CAR DOOR.

No. Do not ask how. Just, suffice to say there were hundreds of ants living in our car door. And we had to bugspray them to death before leaving. And then the entire drive home smelled of Ant Poison, which I can only hope isn't People Poison too.

*sigh* Plus, because of Random Insomnia Haha, I got about four hours of sleep last night, so I'm pretty exhausted now. Bad days are not good after a night of little sleep. T_T If I choke on dinner tonight, or someone drives into my house, or I discover spiders in my bed, I will be mighty displeased.

Two questions for the masses:

·Is it just me, or was the "Bloody Mary" episode of Supernatural last night a big ol' ripoff, character-design-wise, of that girl from The Ring? :/ Because the paleness, hair-over-the-face, the way she stuttered when she moved... even the jerky "climbing out of the mirror" (which was, of course, a TV in The Ring)... *sigh* I can't decide whether it was thievery or homage. Either way, whoo. Eyes-explody. X3

·Can anyone explain to me the "This hed is pastede on yey!" joke? ...If you don't know what I'm talking about, I'm sorry, I don't get it either, except the very line and spelling amuses me to no end. What's the backstory on that? (I may join Fandom Wank just to ask them that, XD;)

All right. Now I'm going to surf a bit before dinner, after which we will watch Fullmetal Alchemist and hopefully I'll sleep for a long, long time.

"...unthroned and unapproachable forever..."

^____^ I love Sandman.

Okay! Woke up about... 45 minutes ago. Got about 11.5 hours sleep. Am only now starting to not feel like hell.

I am never sleeping past noon again.

I wore my glasses to school, yesterday. Now remember, this was when I had my contacts out... and my glasses, like Ninamori's in FLCL, are "fake," no glass in them. It was a fashion statement. Usually, when I make that "wearing glasses" fashion statement, though, I have my contacts in. I was totally blind yesterday, and kept walking into things, and looked like I really shouldn't have been. XD; That was fun.

Will probably update again, later, with something more coherant. Now, to write.

Well, I put my contacts back in just in time for dinner, then had Family Time watching Cash Peters be Stranded in the middle of the woods (he's such a cute little wuss! XD) and Tony Bordaine (whose name I've quite possibly horribly misspelled) have A Few Reservations about jumping off a big-ass cliff. My eyes have only JUST stopped hurting... which I would take as a good sign, except wtf, 2 hours of pain, even after getting the damn things back in. It's good that it's stopped, but dayam.

So yeah... will finish my chapter of In the Night tomorrow... my lack of productivity can be easily explained by the fact that, because of removing my contacts, I have been mostly blind and in acute pain since Sunday.

In unrelated-to-anything news... anybody else love Italy? o_o This isn't the first time I've desperately wanted to set a story there, but it's definitely a Keen Urge right now. Fine dining, good wine everywhere, cliff diving, beautiful beaches, near-constant relaxation, definitely constant random embraces and kisses, an amazingly versatile language that is perfect for reading poetry OR arguing loudly and bitterly in (believe me, I just heard them)... Who wouldn't love Italy? It's close to replacing my love of New England, right now, and that's saying something. (Remember: "Pleasure, it's a Sicilian priority...")

*goes off to continue watching Tony Bordaine, seeing as how it's still officially Family Time XD;*

EDIT: Wow, Tony Bordaine complains a lot. He and Cash are similar in this regard, and in the fact that they are both utterly charming, but they're different in a very deep way, too. Cash is lovably naive, while Tony is wonderfully sarcastic. *snerk* It's like... Cash Peters is the modern Bertie Wooster--and wow does that give me some weird mental images o_O--and Tony Bordaine is like... like... well, who am I kidding, he's one of a kind. He's like Tony Bordaine. ^____^

And now... two quotes. One from the Princess Bride (Vezzini, since I'm in an Italian mood XD;), and one from Cash Peters.

"Never go in against a Sicilian, when death is on the line!"

CASH: "We're going to die, aren't we? We're going to die."
WOODSMAN: "No, you're going to die. I'll be fine."

X3 Pain or not, I'm feeling better now. In retrospect, it's been a good day. Thankyew and goodnight.
