kenya and chitose


In the picture above, taken a day or so ago, Kenya is on the left and Chitose is on the right int he back.

Right now poor Kenyafish is so weighed down she can't even really swim. She just sits in the current from the filter, wiggling. Any day now she'll be popping the babies out.

My poor, pregnant fish.
Today, I listened to the CD for ミュージカル「テニスの王子様」Absolute King 立海 feat.六角~Second Service. It brought back many memories....and also reminded my how amazingly ridiculous myu is.

Still, it was fun, and listening to the soundtrack reminded me of my trip in July.

It's good to like silly things simply because they're silly, I think. It keeps us light and human. Still, a bit more skill would have been nice. We'll see what the new cast can do.

Time for bed now. I'm way too tired, even if it's only 8:33pm here.




pregnant kenya



This is one of my fish. Her name is Kenya (I named her before I knew she was female.)

Currently Kenya is expecting another load of baby fish, thanks to my other fish, Shiraishi. (Yes, there is a Tenipuri theme to my fish tank. I know I have issues.)

She's not a very pretty fish, nor is she very bright, but I've come to have a weird affection for little Kenya-chan, even if she does look retarded when she swims because her belly is so heavy.

Tomorrow, I'll be offering Shiraishi to a coworker because I don't want my new famale fish, Chitose, to get pregnant as well. Hopefully I'll be removing Shiraishi in time to avoid yet more fish babies.

I never knew keeping fish was going to be such a complex thing.

power day fireworks
Today, for one reason or another, things just feel good. ドキドキ

Even the cat vomiting when I came home hasn't dampened my mood.

In class today, we'll be beginning a unit on Emily Dickinson, whose poems I love. A lot.

Everything is キラキラ today. ラブラブ音譜

fall leaves


Instead of writing my essay on Christianity vs religion in Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl, I spent my evening scouting out songs from Mermyu.

I also made stir-fry.

But, really, the majority of my time was spent checking sound clips for quality. I should be a more dedicated student, especially moving into my final semester. But, on the other hand, I've gotten this far okay, so I don't think I have too much to worry about. *shrug*


11-4 dinner


I......I cooked!

And it was good!

Because I was still sick, I didn't get anything done today. I just slept...and slept...and slept.

I did manage to watch Gekiranger, though, which cheered me up because I'm a dork.
(*⌒∇⌒*)

But, moving right along....

Tomorrow is going to be a busy day. I have to do research at the library and write some papers. Must. No exceptions.

I just hope I can sleep through the night tonight.



random thighmaster



Today, I saw this in the parking lot of my apartment complex.

A random Thighmaster, sitting under a tree.

I want to know how it got there, who abandoned it.

I'll have to think on it tomorrow, though, becaue I'm still sick and, even though it's just 7:36 at night, I'm going to go to bed.

Where did October go? もみじ

It was here one moment and gone the next.

Now it's time to get ready for Thanksgiving, then Christmas Merchmas.

And there's the matter of the JET application to finish...how am I going to get everything done?!?!?!?

*breathes*

One day at a time. I'll just take it one day at a time.

Despite my best efforts....I have a flu.

Hopefully lots of rest will keep it at bay until the weekend, when I can really rest. I've already had to go home early from work, though, and my throat is really starting to get sore.
