Ooookay. I changed my name again because i am no longer sleepless. If anything, now I sleep too much! I just can't win. So ya, if you want to see my one and only set yer gonna have to hunt for it

I cut my hair today. I am extremely happy! The thing about thinning is doing it with grace and I have accepted my fate. Although I doubt I'll do the complete male pattern baldness thing, I know my hair will forever be thin just from the abuse it recieved in high school and college. But I am very happy with my new cut. I was goignto just say fuck it and shave it again like I did in the navy (my aircrew handle was monk- go figure) but I was convinced that a shorter style would look good on me so thank you Alyssa at Supercuts!

Ikenai ee ken eye= "Oh no" or "Awe shit I fucked up!" depending on the emotion you put into it.

I chose that because it always sounds so funny when they say it in Ranma 1/2 and BeBop and FLCL and...take your pick!

edited for clarification: This is the word that comes to mind when I think of my life in its current state. But in a light-hearted way. Well, if you can't laugh at yourself, who the fuck can you laugh at- right?!

I once saw a Badtsmaru Ikenai shirt that was soooo rad but they didn't have my size- IKENAI!!!


Haruhiko Mikimoto. You can't call yourself a diehard anime / manga fan without knowing his name. To me, he is an animation god for his style and character designs. This is the guy who brought us Minmei Lynn, Eve, and the lovelies in Gunbuster (I LOVE that oav set so shut up!!!)

I really like Rahxephon. It's like Evangelion with less baggage and more fun with some X-Files thrown in. The them song is killer if you've heard the full version.

Two anime songs that get much mp3 time from me right now:
Myun' Theme / Voices (accoustic japanese long version)
Rahxephon opening theme "Hemisphere"

Ya, I'm rediscovering my anime collection again.

-Hemisphere by Iwasato Yuuho

In any case, what can I possibly do?
What can I do to change the reality of this confined garden?

I haven't even lived through half of my life yet
I oppose and I embrace
Experiences are unconciously tatooed onto me

When I'm in serious trouble
Challenges also grab at me
I was able to see my existence for the first time
Towards a huge field, somewhere bigger and deeper
I can only go to a world which exceeds expectations

Tell me the meaning of "power"
I wonder if it's something I can go through
Or even if I devote myself
Can I protect the things which I must protect?

Clouds of dust whip up in the savannas of gazelles
Until the winds die down, they must remain inside

People continue to walk
Just to live
I move on as the incomplete data is re-written
It seems I've started walking alone in the wilderness
Until I become more confident I want to live up to myself

Where did I come from long ago?
Where is the distant future heading?
I was abandoning it before I could notice it
It seems I've started walking alone in the wilderness
Until I become more confident I want to live up to myself

When I'm in serious trouble
Challenges also grab at me
I was able to see my existense for the first time
Towards a huge field, somewhere bigger and deeper
I can only go to a world which exceeds expectations

I want to know more about myself
