Frustrations

My Dog Ate My…

The usual excuse we hear from children about forgetting their homework would be “My dog ate it” but I didn’t really like that sentence applying to me. Though I wouldn’t be in such a big huff if it was only my homework that my dog ate. If only.

My dog ate my one and only japanese manga copy of Knock!

Cruelty to animals is a brutal crime, yes? *give my dog a furious glare*

I arrived home to find my brother in my room, doing a puzzle; the puzzle consisting of torn pieces of my manga. The culprit that had my brother looking for torn manga pieces for four straight hours? Our dog, Maru.

Oh, that little bugger! I completely ignored him that day, trying to keep from my mind that that copy of Knock! was the one and only copy in that store and that I’ll likely not get another copy of it.

Arrrg. So now I go off To apologize to some people who expected something of that manga. T_T

Living With Spam

My hatred for internet spam has reached a whole new level. It has passed hatred. It is now undisguised loathing and contempt for all things spam-related. If there was a way to rid myself of all of those, I will gladly do it.

The reason? Winglica has been attacked by these dreadful spammers. Nothing dangerous, just rampant advertising in the comments area; even inappropriate content for our teen audience.

I had to spend almost an hour just trying to weed out all the spam messages we got. Suffice it to say that once done, our total comments was pruned down to only 1/8 of its original number. A daunting fact, and I congratulate myself in having the patience to go through all of it.

Ouran High and Livejournal

I should be working. I know I should. Yet I find myself creating yet another Livejournal account for the nth time because I can’t remember the ones I made four years ago. That long? O_O

I watched Ouran High Host Club, all 27 anime episodes, for two days straight, up until two in the morning. I just couldn’t seem to stop myself from liking it. It was funny, and yes, it reminded me of Fruits Basket. It wasn’t as hard-hitting but the comedic elements were there. Not to mention that Momiji has been reborn in the form of Honey-sempai, complete with bunny and all. Yep, even the seiyuu was the same. Who could resist that?

And like Fruits Basket, the ending left much to be desired, plotwise. Damn it. Now I want to read the manga.

*gets manga*

Ah, there you go. Jasmine and I are thinking of making a new section in Winglica for Ouran High, much like what we did for Fruits Basket.

Oh, well. We’ll see about that after we finish the preparations for Harusaki’s second birthday.

I still like Wordpress better! Why do I have to go to my admin panel eveytime I want to edit an entry? Why can’t I have a little link beside my entry that says ‘Edit’?<== obviously the lazy type.
