Shit from yesterday has been addressed.

As in the, how am I disrespectful for pointing out that what you were doing was in itself disrespectful, shit.  And since finding out from here after addressing it that my grandmother did not as I had thought let me tell people on my own, and went and told my mother before me anyhow, I pointed out that this further illustrated the point I was trying to make before my mom went loco and turned all puta.  I also said that if any of this shit comes up tomorrow when my maternal relatives are over (either the guy in X-L or the shit from yesterday, as she was on the phone with my grandmother at the time), there will be a verbal bitch-slap for at least a few individuals.

Really I view this "disrespectful" labeling thing as often just an excuse to not listen to a point I'm trying to make because I'm at least partly right and just pretty blunt about it, or it's inconvenient, or some other crap.  Too bad I'm so tenacious, mm?  Anyway, things are cool now.

So she and I and my youngest sister were in town this afternoon.  One of the places we went to was Hastings and I rented three things that looked interesting.  One of them is the first disk of Gun x Sword, which I've already seen the first episode of courtesy of YouTube but never got much further than that, so let's give it a go, shall we?

Also I finished my first book of 2009, Lucifer Unemployed, which I posted about here at the bookish community.  If nothing else, check this quotation from the titular short story out:

Oh well, mercantilism doesn't suit my nature anyway, thought the devil, leaving the king of the Stock Exchange.  I haven't the knack for commercial dealings.  I'm too gullible, and too easy to cheat.  I used to pay the highest prices for the most mediocre souls, and then when it came to collection, they'd slip through my fingers by reciting some cheap prayer!  And there isn't even a court that a poor devil could turn to for justice!

Aleksander Wat's style is amusing and interesting, at the very least ^^  In the end the Devil's talked out of committing suicide by a stranger (and then realizes that it wouldn't have worked anyway, remembering that he is immortal), and becomes Charlie Chaplin.

And with that, Good Night.

family, books, home
