(no subject)
Hello everyone, another sporadic update from the Nia/Jyuu! This one may be a trifle rambly because I'm going to just go all over the place, like I normally do. It's been a busy busy week and I think that last week I told everyone about unbeatable excellence, and my woes with the state of the backroom. Well this week did not have it getting any better, not even at all, but I have my own section for the tale of uck that is my work. This is really just the highlights of the week in general.
First of all, started to watch a series called Spice & Wolf which is all about the gaar-ness of money trading and merchanting. But it also involves wolf gods, it's really completely random but the dub isn't bad. (thank goodness for Netflicks). Can you believe we're already up to episode 9 in a week period, well it's easy to get lost in anime land when you finally find it again. Definitely a good series but really not for everyone, you have to like some fanservice and anime wolf girls (as long as it has a good story, I'll likely watch it.. that's the leading reason of why I watched nearly the entirety of Strike Witches.
Work! My favorite subject. It must be because I have so much love for it. Really we had a thing as Unbeatable Excellence on thursday and I worked wednesday night to prepare. The problem back room associate was in fact a problem associate. He called up from his home after lunch and said that he wasn't coming back for the night and thus causing me to want to rip his head off. We had a tussle over who was going to do Dairy picks on friday and I told him that I'm here every day without calling in so I win. Yeah, that was a bitch move but I don't care, I am sick of him acting as the lead back there and taking all the easy tasks for himself when he A.) calls in all the time B.) takes off early all the time C.) avoids work by walking the perimeter of the store for a half an hour and C.) when he does work, it's at the pace of an slower then average turtle. I told him that too, and needless to say he doesn't like me anymore. That doesn't make any big difference since I am not here at work to -be- liked. My friends at work and management think that I'm pretty awesome, anyone else can fucking deal.
In the world of Take That, I've recieved the most awesome news ever. Pet Shop Boys are Take That's support act. That makes me wish I could seriously go to their concert because it's PET SHOP BOYS. That's big, that really is. I've always loved their music and now I want to download all their albums, not just because they are supporting Take That but because I realize that I have alot of holes in my Pet Shop Boys song collection. There is much whining in the Take That front with people going: "Oh but the Pet Shop Boys are so OLD" and "this sucks, why did the boys pick them". Well answer, it is because Take That LIKES the Pet Shop Boys. Sorry it doesn't mesh well with your desire for Tineh Tempah or Cheryl Cole as the support acts, I guess you're just going to have to deal with it.
I am falling in love with Zoicite/Kunzite all over again. I got to the episode in Sailor Moon where Zoicite is sprawled out over Kunzite's lap and Kunzite is stroking his hair and saying. "We'll find a way to beat those sailor scouts, darling!" ♥ Seriously they are love, so much love that I have an original character based on Zoicite in the works, well loosely based of course. Huzzah for Zoicite! Thank you Midori for re-igniting my love for Cheesy Sailor Moon.
I finished "The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo" by Stieg Larrson and I just wanted to say that is a brilliant brilliant book. I have the next book downloaded to my ipod as audiobook, but I need to finish "The Mischief of the Mistletoe" by Laura Willig. (Turnip Fitzhugh for the win and there is probably only one other person on my flist who will even understand what I'm talking about since she reads the flower spy series as well). Once I finish "MoTM" then I will move on to "The Girl who Played with Fire" but I've been listening to the book at every moment and turn, I've been listening to it on the way to work and on the way back, I've been listening to it at work and then I've been listening to it at the computer when I've come home from work.
So anyways I'll be catching up with my friend's list today! Everyone have a great day!
