Not a lot of vampires in Miyu. She's a vampire, but she hunts demons - shinma - that prey on humans. Looks like a little girl but definitely is not. Very dark series. And Miyu's not quite a western vampire, she does drink blood but not all the time and she's more about defeating shinma than anything else.

Um, yeah, Mom wouldn't like this little bit of Kenshin ("But Mom, you're not getting this in context - of course it disturbs you, it's supposed to be disturbing but if you're a Kenshin fan you have to see this"). Which is another good reason to wait until everyone goes to bed.

Have not see Ghost in the Shell. Saw the graphic novel in with the comic books today. It looked like a very Western-influenced manga, or a manga-influenced comic. I shall have to look for it.

Sounds series :)

Just remembered I have the videos of Horton Hears a Who and Willie Wonka checked out right now--think I'll watch one of those tonight.

Well, the new laptop power adapter arrived. Haven't tried it out yet - still using the one from work since it was a little cold. Looks to be the right one, though the part number is different.

Had an interesting day, I guess. Went over to see my friend Therese - her family is back up here after being in Florida most of the winter. Ended up TOTALLY breaking down when Mom came up in the conversation, which I haven't done in a long while. It was embarrassing...I kept having trouble talking because I'd get almost OK and then just lose it again. *sigh*

Then this evening some siblings and their friends were over for dinner and to watch "Neverending Story", which was even weirder than I remembered it being. Hmm...

They're gone now, and I'm exhausted. Gonna go to bed early, but I also have to get UP early. I hate spring forward!

Feeling kinda bummed...still no change in the scale reading this week, and I've been very good about not eating much and drinking lots. Hard to keep up much hope, when it's been months and months.

On that happy note, good night.

So what comics did you look at today? BTW, I find it kind of funny that you ended up taking your brothers to the bookstore, because when we were talking about where you were going to take them before I was going to suggest that, but I said to myself, "Nah!--they probably wouldn't be interested. . ." :)
