Heh, not quite Ayato, but still cool. ^_^

Anyway, I've now seen up to 59 of Prince of Tennis, having watched at least eight episides in the past two days. And DAMMIT, don't make me like Inui!!! He's scary and creepy and dammit why was he being all cool and nice with Kaidoh?! ;_; That was a really good match. And I looked it up and DAMN is Ohtori tall. o.o;

::sighs:: I still don't like data tennis. Even if I now have to cheer the future MIT student on. -_-; HE's STILL CREEPY!!

Uh... so other than that, not much else new. ^^; Was up until 2 playing FFVII trying to get Yuffie... Finally got her after two tries, now it's off to the port for me and whoo, I'm finally playing past what I'd already played up to!

Oh, and I looked it up, and there IS another Earthsea book! "The Other Wind" - now I've got to get it when I go to B&N to spend my gift cards. I'd do it now but I'm not sure if/when Jen's going to stop back (pretty sure she is, but she hasn't called yet) so maybe I shouldn't. If I wait long enough maybe I can go to B&N in an AC'd car instead of on the bike. ^^; I'm still kind worried about the chain and gears, since it's going to be living outside here and all the bikes I've seen have rusted chains, but there is no way I am bringing it up the stairs all the time. -_-; Like, I can lift it by itself but then I have the back rack and baskets on the back and suddenly it's a lot heavier. Oops. ^^; Maybe I'll just bring it up whenever I get home and it's raining or something. I should ask if those parts are easily replaceable at the bike shop.

Okay, that's about it for now. Life's not particularly exciting when you don't know anyone else in town. ^^;

Heh, even if other mothers don't, it's pretty cool! :)

Though yes, I think a few of my friends have moms who would do similar things. And yeah, there's another Earthsea book. Well, two if you haven't read "Tales from Earthsea," which is how I found out about "The Other Wind." Now I have to go buy it!

My Japanese name is 猿渡 Saruwatari (monkey on a crossing bridge) 拓海 Takumi (open sea)

Hmm, I have half the name.. maybe I should see if I can find a Hachi-Roku to drive around and race on mountains ^_^;

Re: About that chain...

Don't they make plated chains or otherwise rustproof ones? Of course, my chains got all crappy, too. I'm pretty sure they're cheap, though. I still have mixed feelings about the Earthsea series (and Le Guin in general). She is too masculine for me, actually... All the same, I read the first three quite happily, so maybe I should keep going in that series. And that name fits pretty well, I think, both of them even. But especially that last name...
