Well, I was poisoned. Ate some bad food. That's not why I didn't update. I didn't update because I'm lazy. But the poisoning lasted almost all week. It was not enjoyable.
On the job front I'm an agent for Staffing Solutions. My first (and only) assignment for this summer is to work as a Talbot call center associate. At 8.50 an hour I can't complain. It's not a hard job, but it really isn't interesting. And I just gotta go for a month. After that's up, I'm down and out into Japan. I can endure any sort of painful horrible work if it's only going to last a couple months and ends with a trip to Japan topped off with a fated reunion with my beloved.
In all honesty, this is the first time that I've been deathly ill and can still say that it was a great week. I think it'd be the same if the world was ending. No matter what shit I have to put up with from my parent's divorce, my unemployment, long distance relationship, etc. I know it'll all be gone in July. How can I feel blue if every problem I have will burn to ashes in a month? Conversely, August will be exceptionally depressing. Problems are like a pheonix. They burn away and vanish, but they'll always rise from the ashes when you think you're done with them.

What I'm watching.
I felt it would be interesting to post up some of the crap I'm watching. Perhaps not.
First, American Drama Heroes. It's like a comic book in the form of a drama. I can't resist it. It is one of the very, very few popular TV dramas that I would actually watch from week to week. Right now it's nearing the end of a season so it's getting rather intense.
Sexy Voice and Robo, interestingly enough, another drama. This one's a Japanese drama. It's about a middle school girl who can imitate and recognize voices really well and a giant robot geek. The two of them become spies kinda by mistake. It's funny and interesting.
Well, this probably comes as no surprise.... Gundam Seed. I'm a Gundam fan at heart. I can't resist the allure of giant robots, and Seed is actually, very much to my surprise, well written, action packed and not what I expected. I recommend it to anyone.....who love giant robots or Gundams.
These are all the new shows I'm getting into at this time. As for old contenders, I watch Penn & Teller's Bullshit. Additionally I'm getting back into GARO. Granted, it's over and no longer airing, I love re watching the episodes. Unfortunately, I can't get anyone to watch it with me other than Aaron. And he's in Portland now. No one's willing to watch it because it's a Tokusatsu program. But it's not normal tokusatsu. GARO is very dark and full of lots of details, aesthetically pleasing design, and some of the best fight scenes in existence. Seriously, Kodama's fight against Kouga is one of the coolest things I've ever seen.
Any of you interested in checking out some of these shows can watch Heroes on NBC on Mondays. As for Gundam Seed, check it out on DVD, but only if you can find it unedited. The Cartoon Network version isn't so good. Sexy Voice and Robo as well as GARO are not aired or licensed for US distribution. Those interested in seeing them can download them (with subtitles) from Tv-Nihon. Or of course, anyone can see any of those programs by going through me.

And it begins
I've decided to start blogging.
Why not? If nothing else, it can cut some of the edge off of the summer. It's strange that time seems to have halted since school has ended. I just remind myself that I only have to make it through about two months. Then I'll leave the country, go on an adventure....and after that school starts back.
