I fight the river and the flow

There are too many things to say, and not enough me to say them.

Another excellent conversation that took place in Tokyo, regarding Hikaru no Go:

The Strange: ::randomly:: He bought a fan!
me: OMG, he did!
The Strange: He went out and bought a fan!
me: Yes, yes!
The Strange: And he clutched it!
me: He totally did!
The Strange: He clutched it

::laughs:: Well, I might as well, right? I've accumulated a lot of random stuff, most of it anime-related stuff, that I can see off to someone who will appreciate it. Plus I've got bunches of doujinshi that I've bought only to find they weren't what I wanted (for a variety of reasons). I could just sell them back to Kbooks or Mandarake, but why not do a favor for another fan and actually make money rather than losing it?

That's the theory, anyway. In the past it was always too difficult to get to the post office, but now there's one within walking distance of my school so I can get there easily. As long as I keep the number of items I'm selling at any given time small, I should be able to stay on top of things. Hopefully. If things go well I might start intentionally buying things to sell on eBay. Surely there's demand for specialty items that I can get ahold of here.

Even if I don't make money, it's a way to indirectly change my money over without losing funds in the vagueries of the exchange rates. ;-) In short, it seems to be an idea full of win! Now we'll see how that pans out, and whether I can overcome my natural tendency towards fail . . .

I'm happy to hear from you, btw. :-D How is the job going, and the new place?
