hemmmmm.
Man, even when I have time to update I don't! I suck.
27th geraniumred brings me to the airport to retrieve sugar_and_synth! The night is filled with Burger King and singing anime songs really loudly and a lot of bonding.
28th Ame, Matt Papa and I head into the city to meet up with fingerspank, scootkadoot and blackjackie999. There is Chinatown and then meeting up with chienverde, xemo_ninjax, nami__chan and others, then Kinokuniya and GoGo Curry and wonderful. ♥
29th I think we slept all day, we can't actually remember.
30th lecheporfavor, eggsterminatus and sweetsweets came over! I don't remember much of what we did aside from cleaning my room, playing Diddy Kong Racing, and then me having a minor meltdown with Diddy Kong Racing in the background. Good times!
31st AMAZING New Years. ♥
1st Mitsuwa with a brajillion people.
2nd I'm pretty sure we just played video games all day, constructed a Fat People Chair which we then watched movies in.
3rd BIGGG epic city meetup with more amazing people! More curry! Then sleeping over at scootkadoot's with bluucircles where we watched Elisabeth and Amanda, Ame and I clung to each other while we had fantastic Zuka boners. ♥
4th Went fabric shopping for Sailor Moon stuff with Scout, had some serious sad times when Ame's mom told her about Odie, re-met up with Amanda and saw the Cirque du Soleil show Wintuk which was amazing! paper snowwww ♥
5th I think.. we played more video games and.. my friends came over and.. I don't remember much else. :V
6th Mitsuwa with Matt Papa, Amanda and skei, then more Elisabeth at my house. Poor Matt Papa was a little bit on the outside while Amanda, Sam, Ame and I literally SCREAMED over Osa being the hottest Death ever. She winked at us and we screamed over and over. More Zuka double-dates in the future! ♥
7th Flew to California together on sexy Virgin Airlines! Heavily contemplated joining Mile High Club, but the stewardesses were always right by the bathrooms and there would have been no way to sneak in together. :( Got picked up by taconaco and slept over at her place because she's amazing. ♥
8th Took the train from LA to Santa Barbara, got picked up my Ame's grandparents who are really goddamn cute ajhksljgkl. And then we were fat for a while. Also saw her people briefly.
9th-11th Went to Big Sur which is absolutely one of my favorite places on earth. The photos I took don't do it justice. We rented a cabin for two nights. It was adorable. Went on lots of hikes and cleared our minds out. Listened to a lot of Eiffel 65, Gravitation music, Hello!Project and etc.
12th Cuddled all morning, I sat around being fat all evening while Ame was at work, cuddled all night. We're exciting.
So anyway! Basically, the past couple of weeks have been incredible. Amazing friends, amazing lady.. it's good. The thought of going home isn't, though. Ughuuu.
Ame's parents have been really great since I've gotten here, which is really nice. Her mom has been especially sweet. I think they were pretty iffy about the whole thing when we got started because of the nature of the relationship itself, but her mom definitely seems to be warming up to me as she's gotten to know me better, and that makes me really happy. ;;____;; I'm pretty sure our moms could be friends. Still, it's kind of new for me to have significant others' parents be nice to me! * A*~
She should be home from work soon and we're probably going out somewhere~ then tomorrow is a full day of doubledatery with Jennifer and Trevor which I am excited for. :3 Thursday we're heading into LA and hopefully doing Little Tokyo with maguma_sama and others? Then Royal-T in the evening so we can see belle_etoile, then hopefully dinner with any and every LA OBer who's around. IF YOU ARE READING THIS AND THAT APPLIES TO YOU I HOPE WE GET TO SEE YOU 8D
And.. FridayIgohomebutIdon'tevenwanttothinkaboutthatlalalalala.
What else is going on in my world.. OH. Something that made my head explode. An Cafe is coming back to the US. I'd love to see them a second time, holy shit! What's that you say? When is it that they're playing? April 11th in LA? Oh, that's interesting, isn't that.. the same weekend HANGRY&ANGRY (read: YOSSI) will be at SakuraCon in Seattle?
...
So basically, the two musical performers I would travel across the country to see will both be across the country.. in different places.. the same weekend. COCKS. But whatever. I'm fortunate enough to have been able to see An Cafe once and I'm ecstatic that we're going to get to see Yossi perform, so I really can't complain! Hopefully An Cafe will come back again. ♥
Emmmmmmm (I have been making this noise all day)
