Second verse, same as the...
May. 10th, 2002 10:24 am*once again mentally pacing waiting for another auction to end* Not much longer, I don't think--another Touya one, as a set with a Yukito cel that's gonna be Kea's. :D I can't wait for the auction to be done--man, this stuff is so worse than crack. ^^
Lessee, then there's one more auction to go--but then there's the other auctions I've spotted that are calling to me. There's one I *might* do (this one of Touya, Sakura, and their dad all dressed up and looking serious) as the price is really good...but I just *have* to stop. I need to be leaving money for the con. ^^;; But there's this *spiffy* cel that's a close-up of Touya's face, and the details are gorgeous--I mean, his eyes are just...just...*purr*. Yeah. But it's about twice the price of the others I've been looking at, and it's getting too easy to do the "it's cheap, ignore what total cost you're racking up!" thing. *wince* ...*sigh* Hello, 12-step program, here I come. *flails*
...and the Yue and Clow Reed cels and sketches! *gurgles, drools* Ah, but those things in the 15K-25K yen range are a lot easier to resist. I do think that someday I will get one that expensive--but the high-priced stuff already on my list have to come first (iPod, tsubasa tattoo, electric guitar). But once I have those... *arches an eyebrow* Yue will be mine, someday...someday...bwhahahaha.
Man, I still really wish that Yami no Matsuei, Gravitation TV and X TV had cels. Not to mention I wish Weiss Kreuz, Tokyo Babylon/X, and Escaflowne stuff were more in my price range. I may have to look more at Saiyuki and Gravitation OVA...maybe I can find some good stuff in those series. (...! Heeeey, I wonder if One Piece or Shaman King has cels--I should check on that!)
...dear freaking gods, this stuff *IS* worse than godd***ed crack. >_< *flailsflailsflails* I have *got* to quit with the cels on the brain thing. Eh.
On a *non-cel* note (see, I can do it, really!) I woke up with a monster-a@@ed sinus headache. A combination of allergies and this storm stuff moving through I think. Is hard to get my music quiet enough, and my printer is *too* damned loud...even the keys on the keyboard are too loud. >_< At least they keep it pretty dim in here--I just hate this sorta headache, as my eyes decide they don't care to focus anymore, glasses or no. :P Bleh. Our first aid drawer is out of ibuprofen, damn it! *flails* All that's there is aspirin, and that just doesn't work on this sorta thign for me...feh, I should go ask reference if I can raid their stash. I know they keep a good supply.
Mmmm...need sleep--gotta catch up muchly. Won't happen tonight, tho, I think--we're doing an extra-long session of MKR at Kelly's, so it could be a late night. ...hm, Anj is busy again tomorrow, so no group activities--I wonder if I should whine at James to do a road trip to KC and get Worlds of Fun and the Rainforest Cafe outta my system. I've been waiting until we can go with Anj, but I wonder if she's *ever* gonna have a free weekend. Or perhaps I should be good and stay home, maybe do art or write or something. Dunno...goofing off and doing roller coasters is kinda extra-tempting...

Date: 2002-05-10 10:05 am (UTC)*grins* Artbooks are also crack. I have a decent number, but not that many. I have been making a point of getting all the Minekura-Backgammon books, tho. :D
*nodsnods* Yep, I know about 'em! I've been in the one at the Disney Village Marketplace a couple of times--but not in the one at Animal Kingdom yet. (What can I say? That place, as kitschy as it is, is a favorite of mine. I've been to the Disney Village one, Mall of America, Kansas City, Houston, Seattle... :D

Date: 2002-05-10 10:12 am (UTC)Now I must make a tour.
On the note of cels--I'm very careful not to look at auctions or sites containing cels. I had to go cold turkey, and it still hurts. ;_; But someday I vow I will have my Youko Kurama cel--the very specific one from the ANkoku Buujutsukai Final Round with that nummy little smirk! *squeals like the fangirl she is*
*coughs several times*
...I'm okay now...I really am...
On the subject of artbooks--....um, maybe I shouldn't, because there's soooo many I want, especially from Utena and from Yoroiden! Samurai Troopers...but my I also throw in that doujinshi are supercrack?
On the subject of headaches--I know the kind you mean, Shini, and they're always a royal bitch. For me, NOTHING works when I've got one of those. I have to sleep it off. >.< Which is real hard when one develops in the middle of work, class, or homework.
As for the mp3--check my mp3 folder (http://varika.pair.com/mp3/) later and I should have uploaded it be this evening...
Re:
Date: 2002-05-10 03:00 pm (UTC)*nods* I mostly prefer to sleep, too. That, and I take a megaton of ibuprofen. Luckily our dept. chair took pity on me and gave me some from her personal stash--so it's *finally* going away. Otherwise I was gonna have to go home, I think. ^^;;
Eee, I must raid your music folder! (*plots and schemes for when she gets home from work*) Sankyuu in advance

Date: 2002-05-10 07:43 pm (UTC)If you want to get to them, they're on the main page of my website, which I'm sure you probably noticed when you were there earlier today.
...however, nobody will ever ever EVER get their hands on my most precioussss Toshimi Arina DJs with their stunningly beautiful art and angst-ridden stories. They will be burned on the eve of my death so that I can find them in Hell. If they're not, I'll come back and haunt the fiend who stole them from their rightful owner--me--until they burn not only the DJs but themselves as well! OHOHOHOHOHOHOHO!
...*ahem*
Sorry. I'm better now.
On the subject of headaches--well, actually, ibuprofen has little to no effect on me at all, no matter what I'm taking it for. (Except if I take more than four at once I get nauseous.) I use naproxen sodium as an ameliorative, and to help me fall asleep. ^^;;
As for the music--~o1, 2, Jango! Then go to sleep!o~ ~.^ It's there for ya, babe.
