Par for the Course
I intended to begin this post with yet another "back again" type introduction as I have so many, many times before. But after having begun perusing (and in this case I am using that term correctly...MJ) Jonathan L Howard's recent livejournal posts I realize that multiple-month gaps between posts are something not that uncommon, especially for ( Read more... ) -

I've been working hard on my Exodia deck, trying my best to get it into top shape, yet the cards i need to make it great include: two Allure of Darkness, another Destiny ( Read more... ) -

Argh! I'm really nervous/upset. Earlier this month I ordered a subscription to Shonen Jump magazine, primarily for a very specific promo card called Dandylion http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Dandylion (he's pretty cute), that is being released to Shonen Jump members during the month ( Read more... ) -

So yesterday was my birthday. I turned twenty, which kind of sucks. Not to sound like a downer, it's just that being twenty is like one of the lamest ages ever, because it means you're officially too old for teenage shenanigans like egging teachers' houses, pantsing dudes in the hallway, and beating the shit out of the girl that you accidentally ( Read more... )
