Juunigou - another really good writer. Also, she has one of the sharpest, most refined senses of sarcasm I have ever seen in my life. ^_^

*giggles* Well, Lilack, it DOES make me feel better, actually - not being alone is a neat thing. ~_^
Woo! Whitecat redid her blog! Kawaii!
Mou... Isako-chan is going apaato-hunting today... erm, APARTMENT. *coughs*
....one would hope that beginning to think in Japanese is a good thing. Ne? ^^;;

Hey, Taryn - if you still need another administrator, I'm willing to join up for at least a while. I'd love to help out - the entire reason I took OVER the Good Fanfiction Webring was because there aren't enough compilations of GOOD fanfiction out there!!
*chuckles weakly* And I hope it's not as hard to get into the new CLAMP archive as it is to get into the GWFR, or you're going to have a VERY small archive indeed - the GFWR has been around for several years and has a grand total of 20 sites. o_O Stringent, these things are....
And yay! Lilack is among the living! ^_^ Well, you were MIA for days... ~_^
*snickers* Mou, Leareth-chan... MORE people afraid of dolls? *tsks* Now, people, they're not REAL - they just LOOK like their pretty, shiny eyes follow you no matter where you move in the room... *cackle*

*reads Leareth's "Glass Eyes" fic*
Okay - this is NOT something I would recommend for 90% of the people I know. ~_^ However... this line alone makes it worth reading:
to be no longer a person, but a collection of spare limbs and flesh, beautiful and waiting to be given life.
Leareth, that's beautiful. That's as close to poetry as prose can get; the rhythm is perfect, the imagery is perfect... gods. You've impressed me.
And that's not so easy to do. ^^;;
+Sunday, July 22, 2001+
02:15 a.m.
Pretty pretty Subaru....
*beams* I made a piccy! *coughs* Hey, don't laugh... it's a great way to relieve stress. Honest.
'Specially since I'm single. ~_^
*looks at that comment* I'm going to pretend I didn't say that. Because I didn't. And you didn't read it, right? Right? ^^;;

WOW! Dominion: Reprise has now gotten 50,000 hits! I can't believe it!! And Vega was nice enough to give me a cute hit-pic. Oh, WOW!! *dances for joy* WHEEE!

08:22 p.m.
*screams* NO, Taryn, say it ain't so... 100? *whimper* You're right. He probably will - drawing all the way, the loony. -_-;;
And yes - I'm happy now. Danke. ~_^
*points at Taryn* You see? She's nice! She doesn't bite!
Wait a minute, yes she does... o_O
~_^
And on a totally random note, this is now being referred to as "the beige blog," apparently... *chuckles weakly* Is that a compliment? Who can tell.... @_@

Oh, good kami... Taryn found the Chick Tracts...
Okay, let me make this very clear:
JACK CHICK IS AN EMBARASSMENT TO CHRISTIANITY.
Did you catch that? Gods, that man... okay - SOME of those things are CLOSE to what a Christian believes - but none of them are right on, and most of them are WAY off. Chick puts out the most bigoted (I don't mean Bible-based - I mean BIGOTED) things, with stupid presumptions and poor art and pathetic stories, and then people pick them up and assume that THAT is what we Christians believe.
It is. Not.
SOME people do, I'm sure; Jack Chick does, and there are probably other people who do, too - just like there are people in Germany and Japan who refuse to believe that they lost WW II and people in Africa who refuse to believe anyone has walked on the moon.
That is NOT the norm, people! Gah... -_-;;
Look, you wanna know what Christians believe? ASK ME. I've almost got a bachelor of science in Bible, for cripes' sakes; and my father has TWO doctorates in philosophy and religion. Don't go to Jack Chick - gods, I wish that man would just die OFF already....
Okay. Rant done. -_-;;

03:56 a.m.
Woo... can you believe I JUST finished work? As in, for-work work? Heh heh heh... I guess I just don't quit when I assign myself a project, hm? -_-;;
*coughs* And before Isa yells at me, this HAD to be done! I swear it!
*coughs* And this has nothing to do with any of you except that for once I had a valid REASON for being up at almost four in the morning. Muaha. Ha. ^_^
Lilack, I like what you've done with your blog! Niiiice colors, etc. - and it loads quickly, too!
Leareth, you redid your page - wow... it's REALLY bizarre! Who IS that character on the front, again?
Hmm... can't think of another thing to say now... *brain cells all used up* *shrugs and shuffles off to bed*
-Trin, who is being very very good....I promise

12:35 a.m.
Muahaha... I'm DEFINITELY leaving on the 3rd! This ROCKS! ^_^ And in celebration....
Chibi Bat Duo is on the loose! (Each word is a link to each of the three pages). ADORABLE doujinshi that I simply HAD to scan and upload. Really - chibi bat Duo's... it doesn't get much better than this. ~_^

August 3, 2001
Eeeeee... @_@
THAT right there is the date at which I am leaving; we've settled it today. The plan is to leave on Friday the third, and drive straight through (taking the short route through Colorado) to Philadelphia, hopefully arriving on the 9th, Thursday - Isa will hopefully be driving with me. If not, then I have to go with my Dad - which wouldn't be BAD... just not quite as much fun. ~_^
Gah, I can't believe this; woo - maybe this is a magic wishing blog. I said I WANTED to go soon - and it happened! Meeeeeeep! @_@ *will be careful what she says from now on*
Oh, and thanks Liz (whose URL has skipped my mind, for some reason *swats self*) for pointing out the wee problem with the blog. I think it's better now. ^_^
And Manzai - I forget what date you're coming, and I have to run to get pictures taken now, so I can't check - will that be in the window of opportunity? Erm, so to speak? ~_^
-Trin, who has to get dressed SERIOUSLY quickly
+Friday, July 20, 2001+
03:35 a.m.
Well, redid my blog layout. I know it's kind of odd, a little subdued *refuses to say boring*
*okay, it's boring*
But you know... after the hell-week this has been, I kind of FELT like something subdued, ya know?
*coughs* Okay. No more complaining now. ^_^;;
Anyway, it looks like I just might be leaving in a week and a half to two weeks for Pennsylvania, which is 3000 miles from here. I would have waited longer, but... ah... family-ness is not aaaaaall that great right now.
Manzai, I owe you; you're SUCH a darling. ^^ And you're absolutely right, it's very good to know you're NOT alone.
And dang - I can see where you got some of your character strength...
Anyway, I KNOW I owe tons of people tons of email (and other things) - and it WILL be forthcoming, believe me. Just... right now... blah. I'm lucky to be having my head on straight. ^_^;;
Going to bed now - have to celebrate my brother's birthday tomorrow AND deal with a guest; both are welcome, but... wah... I'm so tired. *sweatdrop* Oi, I hope my... erm, not-so-well family member decides to keep her odd madness to herself.... -_-;;
*edit* Oh, and I know you've seen my "personal" stuff before - but scroll down so you can see the pretty/menacing Sei-chan pic, ne? ^_^
-Trin, who reaaaaaaaally needs more time to practice
+Thursday, July 19, 2001+
11:17 p.m.
Yep. I'm definitely going to TRY to be out of here (California) in a week and a half; dunno if I can pull it off - but I'm going to try. ^^;;
+Thursday, July 19, 2001+
05:01 p.m.
Bwaaaaaah... @_@ I wish I could go to Pennsylvania early. I can't afford it, but I really DO wish that I could... >_<

Gundam Wing Scrapbook
Well, I worked all day and managed to get a wee GW page up; I had a good reason - beside the fact that I wanted to do a page for Wufei (who really gets bad press ~_^), I now have a place to house the DOUJINSHI that I've scanned! Only one is up so far, but it's quite fun - do enjoy. ^_^
BTW - saw Jurassic Park III and Legally Blonde today; avoid the first, enjoy the second, says I. ^^;
+Wednesday, July 18, 2001+
03:37 a.m.
Oooooookay... just finished watching the Utena movie, and I commented on it a LOT. *coughs* You can check the here, if you like; it was quite fun to do, but I doubt it's nearly as much fun to read - hence, for now, I've archived it. ^^;;
Oh, and for the sake of anybody who reads this blog on a regular basis, I extracted most of the non-Utena ravings for folks. ^_^
*repost from earlier today*
*starts a whole trail of random thoughts*
Mou, Leareth-chan, I AM writing something funny! Just... slowly. ^_^
*blinks* An S/S/K fic, Taryn? *twitch* Gerk. Not at you, dear, just... Kamui. *coughs* He needs a new spine. At least it'll be humorous (or so I hope from context). ~_^
*chuckles* Natalie doesn't seem to be back yet from Shoujocon - oi, I SO envy her... traipsing form one Anime 'con to the next! And Isa, we didn't click THAT much... erm... heh. Actually, I thought I annoyed her. ~_^
OH! And I have a few pictures from Anime Expo! Yay! ^_^ I'll have to post them later.
Speaking of Isa, I'm glad to see that she has discovered the wondeful joy that comes with blogging at ungodly hours of the morning. Fun, ne? ~_^
*blinks at Lilack* Saint? How am I a saint? @_@ You're too nice. ^_^;; Erm... *uses author magic to give you candy* *since it's a saintly thing to do - or something*
Aw - Kunika isn't feeling well! And after I went to ALL the trouble (okay, so it was actually on my way home and no trouble at all ~_^) of getting some Dragon Knight manga for her. I looked it over; that's some weird stuff. @_@ Not nearly as weird, however, as the single issue of RG Veda I picked up. I'm completely lost....
And did anyobdy notice that Yasha-Ou IS Sakurazuka Seishirou with long hair? o_O
At any rate, Rabi of X 1999 fame has come through for us again; should you be at all curious, here is his RG Veda FAQ.
And good heck, I've babbled a lot. ^_^ *goes to work*
-Trin, getting LOTS of posts in at once because there's not much else to do
*yawns* Blah... well, gotten some good feedback thus far on Consummatum, which is good - but only one person gave me anything I could CHEW on. I got a lot of "yeah, that's nice" things - but I can't do anything with THAT. ^^;;
Enough grousing. ^_^ I am presently staying awake for the simple and bizarre reason of my lack of desire to go to sleep. *coughs* Which means I don't wanna go to BED yet.
Hence, instead, I am going to sit here and watch the really trippy Utena movie for the first time and make comments as I go.
In other words, you can feel free to ignore pretty much everything I say tonight. ~_^
And we're back to normal blogging; I checked - just looking over it quickly, there were TEN long rants on said movie. Woo - I guess I had a good time.
*swats self* Dang, I should have MST'd it... *chuckles* Anyway, if you're feeling PAINFULLY bored, feel free to take a look. ^_^
-Trin, who is FINALLY going to bed. ^_^
