If anyone is interested in trying out the anime Darker Than Black, or if you want to hear what the new dub sounds like, you can watch the first two episodes for free at
http://completethecontract.com , password bk201. Funimation sent me the info along with my order, which arrived today. (Very fast!) Also, if you pre-order the DTB DVD, you can use the same code, bk201, to get 30% off the price, which I think currently knocks it down to a little over twenty bucks.
Going to see High School Music 3 with
annavtree and Mike from work tonight! I am somewhat excited. HSM is kind of a crackish sort of thing to me; it's really neat, but not what I want for Christmas, you know? If I celebrated Christmas. (*coughPersona4cough*)
There's a Japanese customer at my work who is heading back to Japan soon, so I gave him a gift of a pound of coffee and a mug that says 'coffee' in a bunch of different languages. (I am a broke Starbucks employee, give me a break.) He gave me a card that says 'arigatou' in hiragana and his name (also in hiragana, 'cause my kanji skills lose at life). I will sort of miss him, but only sort of, because we never really talked or anything.
Leaving for Cleveland tomorrow! Seriously, if I have to go somewhere in the fall/winter, why didn't I pick Flordia? Anyway, there's an event with the Japanese Culture Club where they are doing their annual sushi-making thinger, so I will try to make it there before it ends.
