"...see you at the car show, Adam."
Nov. 24th, 2003 12:38 pmWatched the tv movies for the 70s-era show, Kolchak: The Night Stalker, last night at Don's--The Night Stalker and The Night Strangler. Rather fun, in a cheesy 70s sorta way. Especially amusing was their setting of the second movie in Seattle, considering I could recognize a bit of the locations, even though some different due to an earlier time. But what cracked me up was the liscence they took with Seattle's underground--suddenly the one-story raising of the city became multiple stories, creating huge deserted caverns beneath the city, complete with turn of the century abandoned items and clouds of rolling dry ice fog. Har. Very cheesy as it changed from real locations to movie sets. Also discovered that they are releasing Space Ghost: Coast to Coast eps to DVD (!!!!), and Don showed us some. :D Ahhhhhhhhhhh, *love* that show. Must get DVDage when we have the funds.
Made a tactical error last night--not only drank multiple glasses of caffeinated, sugared pop, but ate much sugar. Made myself go to bed when I got home, but couldn't sleep, couldn't couldn't couldn't. Finally tried reading an old college textbook anthology I had of English poetry, but it wasn't until I finished the T.S. Eliot section at 3:30am that I felt I could finally sleep. I think I got about 4 hrs/sleep a night last week, about 3.5 on Friday night, and 2.5 last night...and so help me, I'm feeling it. I need at least 6, seriously. Am not feeling it too bad physically...but it's like I'm punch drunk--kind of dazed and confused, very off mentally. Dizzy-like, too.
Strange to not be working on an Arty-RP today. *scratches head* But still got stuff to gnaw on--snarking at Sengoku ^^ , and Taichi just said the 'kitten' word. >) And then there's poor Kaidoh facing the Hazue-pointy teeth doom...saaa, poor guy's getting as bad a guilt complex as me on that front. *coughs* >_>
Hmm...at least between Friday and Sunday I got stuff done, homework-wise, housework-wise, RP-wise...even got to watch a few eps of PoT. Just saw the very first Rokkaku ep, but I so so so *heart* them. They're just adorable. ^^ ...er, except the snorting guy. I don't mind his questions, but that goofy air-blowing thing is just...goofy. Er. But the rest of them... *sparkles* So cute and sweet and awwwwwwwww! Loved the whole playground bit. Eiji Eiji Eiji!! *___* His cuteness eats my brain, and I doth luvlub him. ...and yes, I am having fun gleaning every bit of InuKai or MomoKai I can out of each ep. Har. Hm, but RP stuff...gads, is *sad* how I can feel so up about it all, then the minute I post I go into incredible insecurity fits--even over the stuff that I'd been *happy* with for once. I..really, really need to quit worrying and quit demanding perfection of myself. But it's hard, because I believe it should be done *right*, and I obsess with both the words sounding right as well as getting the character right...and I can't help it, I'm always ragging on myself that I'm not in-character like I should be. It's such a hard line to walk--keeping to the show and manga, but also trying to...interpolate/extrapolate, to delve deeper into what you *don't* see in the show, to get at what these people are like inside their heads and behind the scenes.
Really want to take Wednesday off. I feel just really stretched thin--got more homework tonight, so will be trying to attack the handout, workbook, and language lab again. Wanted to watch more PoT, but I might have to just save it for the long weekend.
Oh, and found a very, very intriguing quote--that on the surface doesn't seem like that big of a deal, but think of it in terms of fandom, and the queens, divas, and harpies found therein. May they someday get a clue...:
