Yeah, the whole "ask me for an essay" bit was sort of irresponsible considering I probably won't have time to write essays. XD; Have expanded on some of the shorter ones in comments, though - and there's the following.

Ye olde pairing meme
Dec. 5th, 2007 07:53 pmI'll do the questions at the end later, if they haven't been covered yet by my extensive rambling. :P
( Six pairings I like )
( Three ships I've abandoned )
( More than three ships I've never liked - possibly controversial??? )
( Two ships that have piqued my interest )

And now I fall into bed
Jan. 10th, 2007 02:01 am1) Updated website with everything written since July (except the SSBB story, because I don't have the gumption). Tons of verbiage for JoJo, geez. Ka says she's written more for this fandom than all others put together, and I seem to be heading in the same direction. o_O This for a series listed in the interests of less than 200 people on all of Livejournal.
That being said I think there may be more readable fic in English now for JoJo than there is for Initial D. At first I wrote "that being sad", AND IT IS.
(
one_if_by_land is chipping away at that one, though. XD)
2) More bookblogging! ( The Left Hand of Darkness. As I look back over this past year, I find I read many books because my friends found out I hadn't and physically sent them to me before I could embarrass myself and them further. This is a good gambit; I could get pretty far on this one. XDDD )
3) There is no 3. After all that, are you kidding. XD;

Ramble meme!
Mar. 2nd, 2006 09:39 pmTo distract me from the new chapters of Bleach and Viewfinder I just dled but can't read--
Name me a character or pairing and I will ramble on about him/her/it/them. (Although if it's someone/something I've never given any thought, I will probably just say "I've never given that any thought." XD) The other one I've seen going around is "Ask any of my characters a question and I will answer", which is also OK for today's purpose! ♥
EDIT -- meme closed. I've still got a couple left I shall answer shortly. XD

All right, I will post this now
Dec. 11th, 2005 10:00 pm...As realistically speaking I won't be able to write any more of it for a while, though in my original fit of inspiration I blocked out much more than what's here. I am supposed to post these in the order in which they arrive. XD;
For
metempsychosis. Not what she asked for but she seemed to like it. I love you in advance, flist, because I know you will get this. XD

Nov. 28th, 2005 08:28 pmThis "everything written on the same day must be on the same theme" thing is getting to be odd. Today's keyword: fish!
...Ow, my eyes.

( Bleach 203-205 )
( GitS:SAC 2nd Gig 21-24 )
I'm prolly going to give up watching ParaKiss, I can't muster the enthusiasm. >_> Blood+ is moving into the requisite high school infiltration phase... Oh and watched the date-o episode of Initial D (the art seems to be rather better?). For some reason the idea of Keisuke borrowing Ryousuke's car makes me roffle - I suppose because they're so attached to and jealous of their vehicles that it comes off on the order of Keisuke borrowing Ryousuke's pants.
TRC volume 8 still not out in French, no choice but to wait. In the meantime I have the anime to watch, and Bleach of course.

Stuff I haven't blogged about
Aug. 12th, 2005 07:33 pmAm trying to decide how much I want to go to this tonight. I only have 16$ on me right now, I'd have to go into scary vinyl shops to get a ticket (assuming it's not sold out), and the venue is like AN EMPTY SWIMMING POOL so far east of the Main the taxi fare home will be twice the cost of getting in. I'd also really like to con someone into going with me but at this short notice it's unlikely to happen. ^^;
Oh, I was supposed to write a fic. Right...
( Over the weekend I watched the live-action Initial D movie. )
Last night I went to the Rogers Cup with my sister. Bless corporate tickets, we were in the FIRST row, ten feet away from Andre Agassi, close enough to hear Nicolas Kiefer fulminate in frenetic German at no one in particular between points. o_o It was splendid weather and a great time was had, despite the 2.75$ hotdogs and @#$% 5.50$ Sleeman Silver Creeks.

Computer clutter meme
Mar. 2nd, 2005 11:58 pmList everything that's on your computer desk! I know we all have messy desks, but try to get everything. You can tell a lot about a person from their clutter.
(screen, keyboard, mouse, speakers) x 2, empty glass, two small pieces of blank paper, a jar containing pens and pencils, my USB memory key, and a tangerine-flavoured lip gloss jar.
...You think that's minimalist, you should see the rest of the house. As an exercise I will list everything that's on my (quite large) desk at work during the day, by memory:
screen, keyboard, mouse, headphones, telephone (one of those office kinds with five buttzillion buttons I can't operate), plastic tray containing pens and paper clips and such, stapler, kleenex box, bag/hat/scarf, employee ID, USB memory key, legal file holder, Dreamweaver MX user guide, two mugs, tin of tea, box of drink packets (hot cocoa, chrysanthemum crystals, that sort of thing), bag of Polish chocolate-covered chewy gingerbread hearts (with strawberry jam in the middle). The rest of the surface is covered with printouts.
EDIT -- Just watched Initial D Battle Stage, which I'd never gotten around to doing. ...Pornography, that's all I can say. Nonstop hot action baybee. There was a time I used to be completely baffled when the characters went off about countersteer and line and whatnot, but now it makes total sense. Suspect it has something to do with the fact that when I first watched Initial D I didn't uhh know how to drive a car. Still it's a bit odd, like listening to the ending theme of Fushigi Yuugi or something and remembering what it was like to not know what the individual words meant.
Last week I finished reading the manga to date, FTR. That is, up to the end of volume 30 in Chinese, and WHERE IS THE END OF KEISUKE'S RACE WTF SHIGENO WHY ARE YOU SO SLOOOOOOW. ( The random short at the end of 30 was the funniest shit I've read in a while, though. )

While we're uploading? Here. Have some utterly fragmentary Ryousuke x Takumi.
(Yes, I've posted the beginning of this. Like two years ago, so I'm assuming 2/3 of you haven't seen it, or if you have, you don't care to remember it. ...Did I mention fragmentary?)
( January 7, 4:40AM )
( April 10, 11:22PM )
And now I'm going to bed, I swear.
