Weekend fun!
Well, my weekend went a lot better than I'd imagined it would--starting off with a fun Friday because my boss called, apologized for asking me to come in Friday when he'd said we could have it off, and then told me not to come in and take a holiday XDDDD
So Friday I went to COMIKET with reppu and kastra. It was only my second time going, but wow is it tiring every year @___@ It was SUPER hot (though apparently not as hot as last year's first day), but luckily enough we got in pretty quickly, only having to wait in the sun for an hourish before we got to get in, YAY.
I wasn't originally going to go, as things between me and Mitsuru are getting kinda awkward (I don't think she's that comfortable around non-Japanese TxN fans :/) and we hardly even talk to each other at events anymore, so I didn't want to go to the event and buy her stuff (I'd just get it online).
Instead I said "screw it" and sought her out and stocked up on her three new releases plus one of the other authors' new releases. I'll upload pics later, but this year I got:
1) Suki - short porny novel set during early TeniMyu in which Tuti gets drunk, passes out, Nagayan takes him home, they both realize they're single, and sex ensues (whaaaat XD;;;)
2) [name I forgot] - compilation of 3 or 4 previous short stories she'd written, most of which I'd read already. Porn porn porn. Has a pretty cover though *____*
3) [another name I forgot] - AOI/TAKAKO XDDDD Half manga, half novel, I haven't read the novel. I can't tell if Takako's really supposed to be a girl or what, but Tuti's hot as Aoi XD Also, I dunno if I'll EVER be able to read it because OI VEY the language @___@
I browsed the GP section also for old times' sake, and picked up some nice stuff from Yutaka Megumi (including an anthology I already had XD;;;; anyone want it?? Beautiful art, adorable stories, she's one of my favorite doujinka *___* I'll post pics later~)
After that we killed time before meeting up with aiwritingfic with Coco's curry and karaoke in Shibuya, then met up with Ai and sang MORE karaoke, then most of our group left for the evening, but Bri, Ai, and I headed to TGIFridays ourselves and had dinner.
Bri stayed the night at my place, and the next morning (Saturday) we woke up early and headed to Shibuya AGAIN so I could harrass Tenchou get one of the new Blossam shirts. Those of you tuned in to fifi_on_the_go probably saw it already, but when I showed up about 20 minutes after the numbers were given out, there was no one there. I couldn't go up and ASK Tenchou for a number, because the gate to the store was down, so I was confused as to what I should do. I poked my head around to see inside, hoping there was a sign or something telling people what to do, and it turned out Tenchou was actually right there setting it out!
When he noticed us he ran upstairs and got a ticket and told us to come back at 11, so Bri and I killed some time at a net cafe before going back to get me my shirt. After that, we went shopping over in Ikebukuro at Animate, K-books, and had lunch at El Torito in Sunshine City (the same Sunshine City where Tuti was at that very moment doing his show XDDDD). That evening it was MORE karaoke with the girls and dinner at Duckie Duck in Yuurakuchou.
Sunday I slept in and met up with Bri and Angie again for lunch at La Pauza in Ikebukuro (mmmm Italian~), where it started to rain. We were going to kill the hour before they had to leave at karaoke again, but as it was full and expensive, we went to Yamada Denki instead and looked at all the stuff we couldn't afford like TVs, washing machines, and air conditioners :D
I've got this nasty habit lately of randomly passing people I KNOW aren't the guys but look a lot like them, and it kind of makes me go all dokidoki even though they obviously aren't--whether their hair looks the same, or their clothes, or their face looks KINDA similar if I squint and cock my head. wtf self. Desperate much?
I bought a new phone on Thursday evening and realized I actually get TV reception on it (*____*)--and of all channels I get TBS (the Ururun channel) AND Asahi TV...one week late :P (Asahi TV was the channel Dageki Tenshi Ruri came on, in which Nagayan guested last week >_<)
My bed and bookcase haven't shipped from Amazon yet, and it's been almost a week :/ I want to be able to UNPACK. Argh.
Tuti's Arashi tomorrow, BuriMyu Wednesday, Wasshi next Friday, NagaJo the day after. Cats the Saturday AFTER that. It needs to be three weeks from now NOW XD
