I haven't watched Kamikaze Girls in a million years, but today I rewatched it, making my brother watch it with me (lol)

I've only actually watched it once, way back in 2010, 2011 (I don't remember which year exactly) when I was in charge of one of the movie room at a yaoi convention, despite the fact that I had
  1. never worked in a con's movie room
  2. never worked at a con, period.
I had no idea how to run a movie room, but I was given the task, and so I did my best. It didn't actually have 'Kamikaze Girls' written anywhere on it, and this was before I ever owned a smartphone/phone with internet access that didn't cost an arm and a leg, so I just wrote down what I could actually read on the schedule, so it did in fact not say what people would have expected. Instead, I wrote the Japanese title, which most people outside Japan doesn't know it by. Man am I glad the DVD had hiragana under the kanji or I would've been toast.

Still had to download the movie to watch it on a TV though, cus it's the type of bootleg that doesn't work on a PS2 or PS3, or on my extremely old DVD+VHS combo player. Clearly it works in some DVD players though. Had to hardsub it myself, too. VLC doesn't play soft subs.

Also only learned recently that the actress who played Ichigo is the same person who sang the Kamen Rider Fourze OP. Also enjoyed the tommy heavenly6 music featured in the movie, I used to listen to tommy a lot in the 2010s.

Visiting the out-laws with Belovedest. Last night we had dinner out at the Dirty Bird (chicken bar & grill) so this morning's breakfast is leftovers. Which I had in bed, due to the scarcity of tables in the hotel room, and my general unwillingness to get out of bed before nine.

Unfortunately, breakfast was crispy chicken Caesar salad, with buffalo sauce on the side. And after I finished that, I was dipping baby carrots in the sauce. And there was a spill.
I can't seem to face up to the facts
I'm tense and nervous and I can't relax
I can't sleep, 'cause my bed's on fire
Don't touch me, I'm a real live wire
Spicy pillow, qu'est-ce que c'est?
Fa-fa-fa-fa, fa-fa-fa-fa, far better
Run-run, run-run-run away
Oh-oh-oh

So for as much as I love Link Click, I took my sweet time finishing the yingdu arc. This is mostly cus I was watching it with my brother [personal profile] tofistig , so we watched it a bit pö om pö. But! We finally finished watching it a few hours ago. I really enjoyed it. I think Felix/Xia Fei is really cute, Wang Qing is really hot. Qiao Ling is The Queen as usual, and stupid ShiGuang fucks me up as per usual.

I actually watched the first and second seasons as they aired, I remember just SCREAMING at the screen at the end of season one. And then the painful, painful wait for season two. The ending of season 2 was not as agonising for me, luckily. But lately I've had a hard time watching new shows. I haven't even finished the first season of Hell's Paradise, and the manga is one of my favs. I'm behind on a lot of manga too.

My brother is very into Vein lol. I can't say I don't get it.

Gotta say I'm pretty excited to see season 3 later on. I hope it wrecks me.

Extreme amounts of "fun"

Thursday's appointment was one that I knew was going to stir up trauma. The doctor ended up listing that aspect of it as PTSD, which I guess is fair. I always have thought of it as "trauma" rather than PTSD, which is kind of odd in retrospect.

I wound up taking a small dose of my "street cred" when I realized I was starting to have a trauma response. That turned out to be a good idea. There's a follow up in a few months, and I should pre-medicate for it.

Afterwards I got the 32 oz reverse mocha from a local coffee shack. (Not one of the bikini coffee shacks.) With chocolate whipped cream, thank you very much. My first time encountering white coffee espresso in a drink. Interesting and almost floral. I had Belovedest (a bitter supertaster) try it. Still coffee tasting, but not as strongly.

Although that's also possibly due to me only having 3 shots of espresso in the drink instead of the usual 6.

I would much rather discuss the coffee than the source of the trauma and the appointment, in any event.

I have:

* 3 appointments tomorrow, all remote (for later today versions of "tomorrow", because I rarely get to sleep before midnight)
* 2 appointments Wednesday
* Only one appointment Thursday, but it looks like a doozy
* The morning primary care adjacent appointment on Wednesday got scheduled today (Monday) by using the magic combination of phrases "my oncologist said" and "new lump"
* (it's probably a ganglion cyst, since I have a history of those going back to the 1980s)

And then I managed to drive myself to Pained Noises & a complete lack of energy today by:
* Read more... )
