Does any of my small readership know anything about the bizarre Japanese trend of Re-Ment? I discovered these at Kinokuniya yesterday and had the following thoughts:

1) My, what an expensive habit that would be to get into.
2) ...WANT3) These'd be fantastic drawing models

It's like a Zen Garden for the Barbie Crowd.

In the end, you've fulfilled your own desires, but what have you really done?

In the end, all of that stuff matters only with respect to how it's affected how you've interacted with, influenced, had an impact on others.

And I think that's what I'm trying to say -- others don't really figure, so wouldn't you necessarily be only serving yourself, and leaving others out of the equation?

I was thinking of reading - since information is for dissemination and education, we determine what and how we choose to pass it on to others.

The Nutshell Studies of Unexplained Death = fascinating, hmm?

SO CREEPY.

I ended up not taking it home, sadly. There are some things I just can't explain.

I get that way sometimes playing The Sims. (You're supposed to, though; the original point of the game was designing houses.) I'll sniff around at websites full of custom furniture and decor to download -- what can only be called, I guess, room porn -- and just load up on stuff.

But the fun only really starts when I'm putting something together for a Sim I've already created, because I start imagining things about them, and filling up a room or a house with something I think would fit them. It then turns into an elaborate game of virtual dollhouse.
