Ani-MAY & MAY-nga

[spiralicious]

I cross-posted this to anime_manga

I know we are halfway through the month, but is anyone else doing anything for ani-MAY or MAY-nga this year? Are they even still things?

I've been challenging myself to watch or rewatch through one disc a day of my anime DVD collection and to reread one volume a day of my physical manga collection.

The anime part is going well. It's given me an excuse to make time to watch some things I haven't in awhile and helping me decide what maybe could leave my collection.

I am very behind on the manga reading, but it has been fun. I actually set out a bunch of volumes to do this with last year and never got it, so it's kinda like a weird Advent calendar, full of nostalgia. There doesn't seem to be any sort of rhyme or reason to why I picked the volumes off the shelf that I did. It's an adventure. (And yes, that means there was a very large stack of manga on my nightstand for a year that I grew blind to. The poor things.)

I haven't been doing anything like that -- May is planting season for me, so I'm busy -- but it sounds like a fun activity.

I can totally see how planting season would be keeping you busy.

Oh yeah. It poured rain yesterday, so I got nothing done then. It was supposed to rain again today, but has not yet, so I am back out. I got the witch hazel done earlier and just finished putting gladioli in the north notch of the prairie garden.
