The Zoo over Ambuscade Street

Dear Verizon: *STAB* *STABSTABstabstabstabstabstabSTAB*

They finally fixed my phone line. Just in time for me to see the Round 1 confirmations go up in the Loki guessing game - a show I'm actually somewhat interested in. I would have had three correct guesses, too, based on my inital list. Bastards. I'm going to sulk and be bitter now.

Oh, I have a cat now.

Dear Universe:

Please stop. It's not nice.

Gokinjo Monogatari box (limited, of course) in September. Rose of Versailles singles in September.

Kamikaze Kaitou Jeanne box (limited, of course) in October. That's just mean. And cruel. Heartless, even.

And no fewer than four first-press boxes to pick up for the new Glass no Kamen series. I haven't been able to buy the first yet! I just had to drop freaking Rose of Versailles from my preorder list - since it's not limited, and the 20% preorder discount counts for less on cheap(er) singles. Which means you'll be announcing first-press bonuses any time now, right? I had to drop that uber-expensive Trinity Blood artbook, too, which pretty much ensures that it's going to sell out quickly and be unspeakably awesome. Sigh.

I need a rapid influx of cash - small purchases are no problem, but when I'm dumping $400 or more on a single box set, things get a touch harder to handle...

Thai food makes all things better. Especially really, really good Thai food. My lips still burn, and I have curry and drunken noodles left over for lunch for the next two days. Also fried tofu with peanut sauce.
