Their twilight campaign is easy to explain.

Had a good weekend.

After spending my first day off last week lazing around, I decided I really need to get out more. So on Saturday I got some exercise, took a shower, and then went over to the Mall of America to see if B&N had the last volume of Absolute Boyfriend, which I've been told is being sent out already. They didn't (Tuesday is "new stuff" day there, according to the cashiers) but I did pick up the final volume of Genshiken, which I'd completely forgotten about. Then I had dinner at Ruby Tuesday (mmm, salad bar) and went to see The Forbidden Kingdom. It was... okay. Pretty cheesy, and in unexpected ways since the ads tell you NOTHING about the plot, but it was fun enough and had a good ending. And I would LOVE to make the witch lady's costume for someone. OMG. *_*

Saturday was the Anime Detour volunteer party, to which staff are invited. I didn't go last year, so this was my first time at one of these things. I was there from 6 PM to 2 AM. xD Lots of food (you may now stab me for not eating the free sushi), fun people, and a chance to see the Evangelion: Redeath parody. I hadn't seen it since Otakon 2006. Mostly I listened to people talk, because I'm still quieter than I should be, and that's what I do, but someone suggested a new fanfic-related idea for next year that I'm really excited about. >3

Sunday was a return to lazy days. I watched The Return of the King, which finished off my run of finally watching the extended LOTR trilogy. I'd owned it for years and never watched the thing. >.> Then in the evening we picked up my mom from the bus station. My sister's taking her on a vacation to Chicago for a week. (Apartment to myself until Friday, yay!) They should be getting on the train right about now, in fact. I had to get up extra early this morning to take them to the Amtrak station before work. And my lovely sister didn't tell me how far away the station was, so I underestimated how long it would take to get there and was a bit late for work. Sigh. -_-

Also, thanks to the Detour party I couldn't switch back properly from being nocturnal, so last night's "sleep" was dozing off and on for four hours. x_x Today's going to be a long day...

*stabs for not eating sushi*

I don't like sushi, I'm sorry ;_;

You FINALLY watched Return of the King?! *faints with shock* Yay for more Faramir and Faramir/Pippin! Yay for Faramir/Eowyn! Yay for more Aragorn/the Undead scenes! :D

Yeah, I hadn't seen it since the theater. I bought the movies when the extended versions first came out, but I never watched them, they're so long and I didn't have anyone to watch them with. ^^;; The parody play I went to recently got me in the mood for the real deal, though.

And anything that means more Eowyn is automatic win in my book. She rocks so hard.

[sea_thoughts]

I know how long you've had the Extended Editions, I've been badgering you to watch them. :P

*sigh* I love Miranda Otto.

You've been badgering me? o_O

Either, wow, we really haven't chatted much in a long time, or I'm really losing my mind.

[sea_thoughts]

Last summer, I used to ask you every time I saw you on AIM (which wasn't often) if you'd watched them yet.

[dejana.livejournal.com]

Wow, I don't remember that at all. ^^;;

I don't know why the bookstores are so slow about putting stuff out. O_o; Especially since most of the anime and manga release dates aren't enforced by the manufacturers. Keep me updated on your thoughts on AB anyways. :)

Looking forward to it :)
