I just got off the phone with Takeuchi-san. The final decision was made early this morning regarding my show - they're going with a weekly late night show where I work a week (or rather, a "week" - four days on, three days off) at various jobs in town. There was some talk about it extending to a region thing, but for now I'm staying in Jubilife ( Read more... )

I think I'm going to take today to sit around Route 218 again, even if I'm not able to make it across to Canalave. Milotic really needs to get out more often - just because he's huge and water-dwelling doesn't mean that he should be cooped up in his Pokeball for days on end. I've been thinking that it would be good to teach him Surf as well, just ( Read more... )

In all the excitement yesterday, I forgot to make a proper post about my last meeting with Jubilife TV. The good news is that they want to hire me, the bad news is that they don't want a cooking show. I'm being given a few options, but all of them end in somewhere between discomfort and humiliation for me. The two premises that they're leaning ( Read more... )

Our nice little one-bedroom condo now houses five people. Four at the moment. I don't know how we're going to juggle this, but all I know is that the bed is off limits. In fact, this is a rule of thumb for anyone who sets foot in our condo: Don't touch the bedroom door. I don't care if we're in there or not. You probably don't want to see what ( Read more... )

Since moving into the condo, I've become terribly domestic, which I'm not sure is necessarily a good thing. I've always enjoyed cooking, and to some extent cleaning, but I've never had that roosting urge before. My apartment back home is nice, well-furnished, but it was just out of obligation. Here, I find myself trying harder to make it feel ( Read more... )

My second meeting with Takeuchi-san is in two days, so that gives me a little more free time than I'd planned on. Last time I checked on him, Nino was still sleeping his morning away, but I'm hoping he'll be up to seeing if Pidgeot will be able to carry both of us through Rt. 218. It would be a lot easier than waiting for a Pokemon that's able to ( Read more... )

You can't get to Canalave without surfing. There goes my plans for the day. I was really looking forward to the library and not just to see if they have Harry Potter but I'm sure there's other places to buy books in this region ( Read more... )

Can't sleep.

The meeting went relatively well. Takeuchi-san, as Yamashita-kun predicted, really seemed to like my... look. At the risk of sounding like the narcissist people take me for, I'm used to that sort of thing so I was able to play that to my advantage. She doesn't seem to be completely on-board with my idea, but we made plans for ( Read more... )

We blew through Sandgem town. Other towns have nice, quaint sayings like "Where the Sun Shines" or "Where Hearts Touch Each Other", but Sandgem's slogan is "The Sandy Town Connected to the Ocean" Yes. Really. That's how empty and boring it is ( Read more... )
