Happy Ani-May! (At least for a few more minutes)

Blank in the box below and crossposted to [community profile] anime_manga

What was the first anime you watched and/or manga you read?

First anime was either Fullmetal Alchemist (2003) or InuYasha. It was a confusing time period and I'm not sure which was first.

First manga was Hellsing and Ranma 1/2. Funnily enough, volumes of both were handed to me in response to finding out that I was watching InuYasha.

What is the last anime you watched and/or manga you read?

Last anime was a rewatch of Samurai Champloo.

Last manga was Boys Run the Riot.

What is your current favorite anime and/or manga?

Samurai Champloo, Blue Exorcist, and Ghost in the Shell

Which anime and/or manga deserves a sequel?

Beelzebub feels a bit cheaty to say because it did get 60 episodes, but it was cancelled before the series actually finished.

There are so many good incomplete manga on permanent hiatus, I wouldn't know where to start.

Which series do you wish you could watch or read for the first time all over again?

Bleach, mostly because the first time around, I couldn't watch it in order, and it would be nice to start over without knowing what's coming.

I think I'd like to read Chobits for the first time all over again though.

Last anime and/or manga that made you cry?

I genuinely can't remember.

Which anime will you forever keep rewatching or manga will you forever keep rereading?

Samurai Champloo, Blue Exorcist, & Ghost in the Shell

What series are you looking forward to reading and/or watching?

My friend gave me her DVDs of Yuri on Ice and I'm looking forward to finally watching that.

My reading choices aren't as planned out. Most of the time I just grab whatever series caught my eye at the library.

What is your go to series when you are feeling down?

Samurai Champloo. It used to be Ranma 1/2, but I no longer have access to it.

Recommend an anime and/or manga:

Samurai Champloo (anime)
Hellsing (manga, specifically)
Nana (anime)
Mushi-Shi (anime)
Blue Exorcist (both)

Describe yourself using three anime/manga titles:


Type "Anime is..." And let predictive text finish the sentence:

"Anime is an important part of our culture lyrics"

How many anime series do you watch and/or manga series do you read in a year?

The last couple years, I have really slowed down on the anime series. Without looking, I think I only watched 10 last year, and i think most of those were rewatches. It used to be more like a series a week.

I typically read a couple volumes of manga a month, so it really depends on how long the series is and what else is going on. Like this year, I haven't read any yet.

Who is your favorite anime and/or manga character?

Ed from Cowboy Bebop and Batou from Ghost in the Shell

Who do you think is the most iconic anime/manga villain?

Vicious from Cowboy Bebop. This was really hard.

If you were reborn as an inanimate object, what would it be?

My first thought was smart phone and I have no idea why.

What anime and/or manga quote motivates you the most?

"Perfection is a dead end. A condition of hopelessness. Always strive to be better than anything that came before you, but not perfect." Kurotsuchi Mayuri (Bleach).

Yes, I see this as more problematic than I used to, but it's gotten me through some dark times over the years.

What is your favorite cozy anime and/or manga?

Mushi-Shi and Natsume's Book of Friends.

I am looking for more cozy series.

What is your favorite "Halloween," spooky or horror anime and/or manga?

Anything Junji Ito tends to be my go to.

What is your nostalgia anime and/or manga?

Ghost in the Shell, Dragon Ball,... Almost any 90s series will scratch that itch.

Favorite filler arc in an anime and/or manga?

InuYasha had some good filler arcs, my favorite was probably Shippou Gets an Angry Challenge.

What was your favorite romantic plot or love interest in an anime and/or manga?

There was this amazing slow burn Yuri anime series I watched like 10, 12, 14 years ago that I cannot remember the name and was never able to find again. The main characters had the first romantic plot in an anime I was ever truly invested in and I think about it nearly daily, still.

What is your favorite fight/battle?

My brain just kind of glitched trying to come up with one.

Do you have a favorite summer episode, arc, or official art?

There is this really cute beach art with most of the main cast of InuYasha I've always really liked.

Do you prefer physical copies or do you prefer to watch/read online?

I prefer physical copies for both anime & manga, but when it comes to anime, I don't feel as strongly about it and it's mostly fueled by my spoty internet access. I do genuinely hate reading manga online though.


What is your favorite place to stream anime or read manga online?

Anywhere I can get to actually work.

Do you prefer subbed or dubbed anime?

I used to really prefer subbed, but as dubbing has gotten better, I find I care which less and actually try to watch things both ways, if I can.

What is your favorite anime movie?

Spirited Away. I rewatch this way too often.

Favorite anime opening?

Battlecry opening, Samurai Champloo

Which manga do you own the most volumes of?

Without digging everything out, it's either Blue Exorcist or Black Butler.

How do you organize your manga?

Alphabetically by title

Do you cosplay? Who has been your favorite character to cosplay and/or is there a character you'd love to cosplay, but haven't?

Yes, I cosplay. My favorite character to cosplay is Kisuke Urahara. He was my first cosplay and it's just brought me a lot of joy and it's fun tweaking/improving it. I have a large, ever changing list of characters I'd like to cosplay, but most of them aren't anime/manga characters. Unfinished cosplays I am currently working on: Beetlejuice, Sam from Trick r Treat, Grizz with the burrito from We Bare Bears, and Hilda from Hilda.

Do you have a favorite cosplayer?

Ezz/Ezinne.JPG & Nick Chirelli-Dunham/cannolicosplay

Do you go to conventions?

I've been to a couple conventions and I had been looking forward to going back, as I really enjoyed them, but it also sounds like post 2020 anime convention culture has changed really drastically.

Do you collect anime/manga merch?

Sort of? Like, I don't collect anything specific, but if I have an opportunity and it's in the budget, I will get something. Some of my favorite official merch items I have are my beads of subjugation necklace (InuYasha), my paper WacDonalds visor (The Devil's a Part Timer), and my Kisuke stuffed doll (Bleach). Though my favorite "merch" tends to be fan made, like my handmade Agni dolls I was gifted.

What anime and/or manga box set would you own, if anything were possible (either to have the complete series and/or because you like the look & extras of the box set)?

Ranma 1/2,both the anime and the manga. There are definitely others, but this is at the top of my list.

If you could have an art book from any manga and/or anime series, which one would it be (even if an art book doesn't currently exist for that series)?

I've wanted the Bleach art books for so long, it's not even funny.

If you could pre-order any manga, anime, or related item, what would it be?

Anytime a cookbook for a series I like comes out, I want it. If I had the budget, I would be pre-ordering all the cookbooks. I am still mad about missing out on the pre-orders for the Gudetama, Studio Ghibli, and Avatar the Last Airbender cookbooks.

If you could get a figure of any character, even if a figure doesn't currently exist, who would it be?

Kouga from InuYasha. While I have a bunch of other characters' figures wishlisted, if I actually FOUND a Kouga figure...

What is your ideal figure type/style (Q Posket, POP UP PARADE, Nendoroid, 1/7 Scale Figure, Figma, Funko Pop!, Figuarts Mini, ARTFX J, Prize Figure, NoodleStopper, FiguartsZERO, or other)?

I really love Nendoroid and 1/7 Scale figures the most, but Funko Pops are close behind.

If you were a Nendoroid, what accessories would you have?

Three facial expressions, a plate of sushi, 2 cellphones, a book, and a kitten

Challenge #1

Update your fandom information.


  • I updated my About Me page and my Ultimate Fandom List (linked in About Me page)


  • Made sure my friending policy was visible and up-to-date


  • Checked that all the links in my Important Links sticky work


  • Updated the interests on my profile


  • Made sure my transformative works policy was posted and up-to-date here on DW. I will need to update it elsewhere later


  • And double checked that all 2023 journal entries have tags



I will update the 2023 Wrisolutions to the 2024 Wrisolutions once I write them, and I will add a 2024 Snowflake Master post link to my Important Links sticky after I am done posting this. I am also leaving the 2023 Snowflake Master post linked because I didn't finish it until like 3 days ago. I think my profile is probably okay.

Happy New Year, everyone :)

I did this at the library with the countdown clock staring at me the whole time, I should probably do it again when I can think, lol.

Snagged from [personal profile] razielim

Favorite Pseud: My favorite of mine is probably spiralicious, even if its origin story now has not necessarily the happiest feelings for me anymore. I have others that are certainly easier to spell and make more sense, but this is the one that has stuck.

Time Zone: PST

Star Sign(s): Cancer sun (Aquarius moon, Virgo rising)

Favorite Holidays: Halloween & New Year's Day

Last Meal: As in the last one I’ve had? I had leftover cream of mushroom soup with garlic and hamburger and oyster crackers, cranberry juice to drink, and I had a tester cookie for breakfast. I should probably eat something soon.

Current Favorite Musician: I wouldn’t say they’re my favorite, but my playlists have been heavily favoring Fall Out Boy & All Time Low lately.

Last Music Listened To: According to Spotify, it was “Dani California” by Red Hot Chili Peppers on my Cooking playlist (the playlist has nothing to do with cooking). Though I think in reality it was that selection of Fall Out Boy, All Time Low, Florence and the Machine, The Front Bottoms, & other random things I’ve been relistening to over and over again.

Last Movie Watched: Rewatching The Shining as part of my horror movie and knit marathon.

Last TV Show Watched: People’s Court while I was getting ready this morning.

Last Book/Fic Finished: I binged a whole bunch of Stargate Atlantis fics last night (I am pretty sure some Batman, The Witcher [video game], Interview with the Vampire [tv series] fics were in there too.) But the last book was The Power of Style by Christian Allaire, according to Beanstack.

Last Book/Fic Abandoned: The Heaven and Earth Grocery Store by James McBride. It was for book club, which met today and I didn’t finish it, though I am not sure I have completely abandoned it yet.

Currently Reading: I am starting a new book when I get home, I think it is Man Made Monsters by Andrea L. Rogers.

Books/Shows/Movies/etc. You Want to Get Around To: On my overly ambitious list for by the end of the year I have, Good Omens season 2, The Boys, the new Batman Christmas movie who’s name suddenly escapes me Merry Little Batman, finish Harley Quinn season 3 & watch season 4… and there are like 3 or 4 things on my HBO list I can’t look at right now and a stack of library materials XD Justice League: Warworld (2023), catch up Batman: The Audio Adventures, Prague Spring by Simon Mawer (though I will probably skip this one), Lumberjanes #11-13, The Strange True Tale of Frankenstein's Creator Mary Shelley by Catherine Reef, Ice Cream Man Sundae Edition, Volume One, Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte, This Book is Gay (2021 revised and updated edition) by Juno Dawson, Mushrooming by Diane Borgato, Samurai Champloo rewatch, Batman: Death in the Family interactive blu-ray, Yuri on Ice, and The Rocky Horror Picture Show rewatch.

Last Thing Researched for Art/Writing/Hyperfixation: curly haired animals and how bushy a racoon tail is exactly.

Last Eureka, Breakthrough, or Neat Fact/Concept Learned: I actually had a really important one like a week ago, but its probably completely TMI

Favorite Online Fandom Memory: I am going to be vague and go with old group chats.

Favorite Old Fandom You Wish Would Drag You Back In/Have A Resurgence: I honestly don’t have one. It feels weird to say that.

Favorite Thing You Enjoy That Never Had an Active or Big "Fandom" but You Wish It Did: There was a time when I could name a few things, but sitting here with the countdown clock going, my mind is blank.

After thinking about it for a day, I just want to add here that most of the time I think something doesn't have a big or active fandom, it either does and I just haven't been looking in the right spot or it ends up having one later. Also, I don't know if this counts, as its a weird crossover pairing from two fandoms that have no reason to meet whatsoever, but it is lonely over here on appropriately aged Zuko/appropriately aged Jason Todd island.

Tempting Project You're Trying to Rein In/Don't Have Time For: I have an AU idea for a no capes AU of the Justice League as Youtubers. It has gotten entirely out of hand. The post about it, just talking about the idea on DW, I started in September has gotten so out of hand/unruly I haven’t been able to get it posted.

Tempting Project You're 100% Going to Undertake: Filling as many requests as possible at [community profile] fandomtrees and [community profile] holiday_wishes.

ETA: To fix a typo, Add/fix titles on "get around to" list, and add too "favorite thing you enjoy that never had a big or active fandom

Hhday2: Three Facts About Me

Sorry this is a little bit late. It's also more than three facts because I had prepared ahead of time a "get to know me" meme from several IG story templates by HalloweenXO because in the past, the first challenge prompt is usually "about me" and I was trying to be prepared this year.

Templates used are:
Get to Know Me (with crystal ball imagery)
Sit for a Spell and Spill Some Hallowtea
Unnamed but features hanging planters with jack-o'-lantern faces
Get to Know Me! (With purple graveyard imagery)
Some of my Favorites

Your biggest pet peeve Being talked over

Phobias I don't think it rates the level of phobia, but I don't do well when confronted with snakes irl.

Other collections besides Halloween I think my most prominent ones would be books & graphic novels, craft supplies, and blind bag/box/chance toys.

Favorite guilty pleasure TV Right now, Letterkenny & We Bare Bears

Halloween Trend You'd Love to Banish This is tough. Halloween TV collections on streaming services where most of the TV episodes they list are called Halloween episodes because the characters are in costume for a few seconds, but the episode otherwise has nothing to do with Halloween.

Something I'm looking forward to this week Fiber group

Something (or someone) I'm grateful for A full food pantry.

Name: [personal profile] spiralicious aka Kat aka Katt aka Kattrip033 aka Gummiwolf aka SpiralKat aka several other things depending on the space
Age: 38

Bio: Normally, I start this off talking about the animals in my life, but as of a month an a half ago, I am both petless and not a regular caretaker of other animals for the first time in about 17 years. It's something I'm still having trouble getting used to.

However, I am still an aunt to the precious Peanut and their new sibling Pumpkin, who are creatures of the human variety, whom I try to spoil whenever possible. (Technically, I am also the aunt of four other wonderful humans, but they are adults who no longer appreciate my spoiling.)

Around this time last year, I became a great aunt.

I'm in a rather bumpy period in life right now and I'm trying to give myself some grace while I work my way out of it. I've also gotten to a point where I am tired of sugarcoating it for other people.

I am an artist, a writer, an avid fanpuppy, a player of Subeta, a Pinterest addict (Seriously, I have five accounts), the keeper of the Madrona Info comm and whip cracker at times of the Madrona Project comm (I've been told this makes me a Mod, nonsense.), a serious Japanophile, a crafter/DIYer, a font of weird knowledge, a queer person, a horror fan, a kinkster, pagan, a pet parent, an aunt (seriously, I am everyone's spinster aunt and I'm leaning into it ), a former house/pet sitter (15 years), a tabletop RPG gamer, my D&D family's mom, a cosplayer, a builder of imaginary worlds, a strong believer that Halloween is a way of life, not just a holiday, a reader, a cook, a tea drinker, a former art association board member (5 years), a former art association newsletter editor (5 years), a former co-head of a weekly life drawing group (6 years), a former design team member of the local scrapbooking/paper crafting store, and a bunch of other stuff that is too difficult to put in list form.

All while living middle of nowhere adjacent.

Most of my time is spent wrangling my anxiety and trying to build a life I don't need a vacation from. Though, I have recently taken up gardening.

My journal is partially flocked and partially public.

Friending Policy: As long as I know how you found me and you're over 18, I will generally friend you back.

Core Fandoms: I normally say I have about 80 fandoms, but when I was listing them, I actually hit 154 before I lost the document... and I wasn't done. Here are my main ones in no particular order: Supernatural, Stargate SG-1, Stargate Atlantis, Good Omens, Merlin, Blue Exorcist, InuYasha, Avatar: the Last Airbender, Ghost in the Shell (Stand Alone Complex mainly, but the franchise as a whole), Aggretsuko, Law & Order, The Simpson's, Addam's Family, Batman, Godzilla, Samurai Champloo, & The Sandman.

For the rest, I have made an Ultimate Fandom List, which can be found here and will be updated as needed.

Characters/Ships: As far as ships go, I am that shipper they made that armada meme about. I wish I was kidding, I have over 45 in Supernatural alone, but in most fandoms I just have a handful. This list is unwieldy enough that it has it's own post now, here.

Other Interests: 80's cartoons, 90's cartoons, Alfred Hitchcock, alone time, androgyny, anime, Anthony Bourdain, art, art history, art journaling, ATCs, autumn/fall, baking, bardcore/tavernwave, big foot, bondage, books, book clubs, boots, bullet journaling, card making, carpe noctem, cartoons, cats, Christmas in July, cleaning/organizing/decluttering, cooking, cosplay/costuming/casual cosplay, cottagecore, crab, crafty things, creepy, creepy kawaii, D&D, dahlias, dark romanticism, DIY, dragons, drawing, Dungeons & Dragons, energy drinks, erotic, fandom, fan fiction/fan art/fan videos, fantasy, femslash, fetish, Finland, flying pigs, food, Frida Kahlo, Fuckology, Funkos, geekiness, gender bending, gender expression, Germany, glitter, goblincore, Godzilla, gore, gothic, graphic novels, grunge, gummy bears, hair dye, Halloween, HIM, horror, horror movies, ink, Japan, Japanese lore, kicking anxiety's ass, kink, Koi fish, kraken, Krampus, languages, latrinailia, manga, medieval, mental health, mer-creatures, metal, Minions, moon, movies, music, Neil Gaiman, night, nonbinary, Norse myths, occult, ocean, octopi/squid/tentacled creatures, pagan, painting, pandas, Pathfinder, piercings, Pinterest, pinups, planners, plaguecore, Pon and Zi, punk, purple, queer, rain, reading, road trips, rock, Rocky Horror Picture Show, rubber duckies, sarcasm, Scandinavia, Seattle, skulls, smut, stickers, streaming, Subeta, sushi, Svengoolie, tabletop RPGs, tarot cards, tattoos, tea, tigers, Torrid, traveling, TV on DVD, unicorns, urban farming, vampires (the non-sparkly kind), vikings, Vincent Price, water, were-creatures, werewolves, witches, writing, Zodiac (I'm a cancer btw), zombies

Contents of my Journal: It's mostly weekly “Clutter Buddy” goal updates. Occasionally, there are anime/movie/book/TV show reviews, episode reaction posts, video spams, blogging memes, writing tables/bingo cards, and talking about writing. But most of my journal is bits about what is going on in my real life. I am trying to do more fandom related posts.

where else you can find me at:
My fics (original & fan) on DW: [personal profile] gummiwolf (out of date, but I am working on it)
AO3: faviconspiralicious
Subeta: https://subeta.net/profile.php?user=657232
Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/kat2733/
Instagram: thekatsmeow85 (I started it fall of 2022 and it's primarily about crafting, but there are a few other things too)

anything else?
One of my biggest fantasies is living in a cabin in the woods in the middle of nowhere, preferably where it snows with a big fluffy dog.

This is a living document. I will try to update as answers change and new questions arrive. Some of these are from memes and some of these are questions I get in real life and on Facebook. I will add dates to when questions were answered, when relevant. Feel free to add your own questions in the comments below.

In your own space, introduce yourself!

If this seems familiar, I updated last year's post.

*waves* I'm Kat or Katt or kattrip033 or spiralicious or SpiralKat or a variety of other things, depending on where you know me from, as I have a tendency to have a different username everywhere, but mostly, I'm Kat, even in real life.

I'm still in the process of sprucing things up for the new year, but my sticky posts, profile, and interests are pretty up-to-date.

Speaking of sticky posts, one is my “Important Links” with a lot of links, one of which being an about me page. It was last updated in July, but its still mostly accurate.

The other is my “comment to be added” post with my friending policy and what to expect out of my journal.

The basics are I'm 35. There are four cats that kind of own my life, though I have only been living with two of them for about ten months now. I had been housesitting for 44 weeks a year for about ten years, that ended in March 2020. Since then, I have been living full time with my mother, and my aunt moved in with us shortly after that. I'm an artist with a degree in art history. I am a major fan puppy, queer, nonbinary, and pagan, though I rarely talk about the last three things. Actually, fandom doesn't pop up that much either most of the time. And I live middle of nowhere adjacent.

I am also very attached to my book club that is currently on hiatus.

My journal is partially flocked and partially public.

I have a lot of fandoms, 80 at last count, but my main ones are Supernatural, Stargate SG-1, Stargate Atlantis, Good Omens, Merlin, Blue Exorcist, Inuyasha, Avatar: the Last Airbender, Ghost in the Shell (Stand Alone Complex mainly, but the franchise as a whole), and I have been spending a lot of time lately in my comfort food fandom: Batman.

As far as ships go, I am that shipper they made that armada meme about. I wish I was kidding, I have over 45 in Supernatural alone, but in most fandoms, I just have a handful.

In fandom, I read, I write, and, sometimes, I beta.

Mostly, I post semi-random things about my life; things the cats did, lunches with my mother, movies I saw, local events, that kind of thing. Not that I have generally left the house, aside from picking up books at the library, in the last year. I (try to) do a weekly “Good Things” post and a weekly update to my goals. But I do memes and challenges too.

Most of my fanfic is here: [archiveofourown.org profile] spiralicious
I do have a fic journal here that has my original fic, but the fanfics are way out of date: [personal profile] gummiwolf

age: 35

bio: I am owned by two obnoxious cats, Romeo and Kamikaze. I am also the wicked step-parent of two other cats, Roxanne, and Georgie Porgie. I am a pet aunt to my sister's dogs, Jasper (a husky) and Theo (a dachshund/Jack Russell mix), and my friend's Aussie Shepard, Dunadan. My animal family is rounded out by a shitzu, Honey Bear, and two other cats, Callie & Bobby, whom I take care of regularly. I am also an aunt to the precious Peanut who is a creature of the human variety, whom I try to spoil whenever possible. (Technically, I am also the aunt of four other wonderful humans, but they are adults who no longer appreciate my spoiling.)

The last couple years have been a time of substantial change for me. I've lost a lot of loved ones and most of the important relationships in my life have been redefined lately, some for better, some for worse. My 15 year housesitting career at the ended earlier this year. While I have a degree in Art History, I'm not exactly using it. I recently ended my time as a board member of the local art association and as the art association's newsletter editor after five years, as well as several committee positions, and quit as co-head of the weekly Life Drawing group, after six years. With the closure of the scrapbooking store, I am also no longer on its design team. Now, I'm just trying to find my footing.

I am an artist, a writer, an avid fanpuppy, a player of Subeta, a Pinterest addict (Seriously, I have five accounts), the keeper of the Madrona Info comm and whip cracker at times of the Madrona Project comm (I've been told this makes me a Mod, nonsense.), a serious Japanophile, a crafter/DIYer, a font of weird knowledge, a queer person, a horror fan, a kinkster, pagan, a pet parent, an aunt (seriously, I am everyone's spinster aunt and I'm leaning into it ), a former house/pet sitter, a tabletop RPG gamer, my D&D family's mom, a cosplayer, a builder of imaginary worlds, a strong believer that Halloween is a way of life, not just a holiday, a reader, a cook, a tea drinker, and a bunch of other stuff that is too difficult to put in list form.

Part of this repeats this post and this post, but some of it is new.

It's a little long, so I put it under a cut. Not all of you will find the information useful, but you might know someone that will. Please pass on the info you think might help.

I had hoped to have a bunch of things done this week but I do not. Not that any of you have a clue what I'm talking about because I'm trying to keep it all a surprise, but I am bummed so I'm venting anyway. There are several things I had hoped to have done by the end of September but was not able to and have had to keep pushing it back and I will have to push it back again another week because it looks like I will have no time to work on any of it this week. There is simply no way to work it in. Also I am sick and possibly broke my toe. I am having problems with the gal I'm babysitting for, and now babysitting everyday but Wed. I got roped into going to the funeral on Friday and my monitor is still doing that weird thing that I can't even really describe what the problem is but my aunt is going to took at it after the funeral on Friday. Until then I am kind of ignoring it because my computer still works perfectly fine other then that and I am out of ideas of what to do.

If I'm lucky though maybe I can get through all of my boxes and get that done instead. Yes I have been home for 8 months and I am still living out of boxes. That should take some stress off everyone if I can do that.

Honestly though all I really want to do is finish the painting I'm working on and do some scrapbooking.

Since you have been patient and listened to my rant I bring you blogthings I found on my computer when I was going through my files:
more creepy accurate blogthings )

Also remember back in 2007 when I was doing website of the day? Well I never finished them and I found the ones I hadn't done while going through a box. I almost threw them away but since I am in a mood to finish things I decided to inflict them upon you once again until they are gone. Now remember I am working from a list someone else made and I do not necessarily visit the website of the day the day I post it and sometimes the website is no longer up. I will occasionally point out websites I like as I always have but they will be listed else where in the post.

Because I finally got to see the Simpson's Movie and I have been watching the show since the beginning I composed a list of my favorite Simpson's moments, although I have to admit that most of them are from more resent episodes because they are what I could pull out of my memory.

FALL TERM

Fall term is long over and done with but it was my last term at school. A lot happened then and I don't actually remember the details too well. But it was important enough and eventful enough that I thought that I should at least try to sum up my last term, under a cut of course.

the end )


Not that I haven't bored you enough with my vague account of fall term but there will be a part two! But not until after breakfast, and maybe a nap.

Jenny
Jen has been here twice now. The first time was to help clean out the house up the river and go through her old stuff. It was kinda fun and kinda sad. We spent so much time together it was like, even though it was her stuff, that we were throwing away parts of both of our childhoods. It also reminded me that we don’t spend enough time together anymore, not that it is really possible to spend much time together. We have changed so much in the last 4 years. I feel so disconnected. We spent nearly every day together for 18 years and now we only see each other a couple of times a year. We both knew it was going to happen. But it doesn’t make it any less sad. But we always fall into our weird pattern. She brought me my birthday present, which was a pair of beautiful earrings. She also brought me Shakespeare festival chocolates and mints. I shall have to figure out something really good for her birthday…and actually send it to her on time for a change. I also managed to inherit her Garfield books. The second time she came down, she brought the boyfriend, meaning I got meet him…finally. He is a very nice man and I approve, not that it really matters if I approve. Although I would like to think that my opinion still got some weight, but she has been dating him for awhile and he moved to Chicago not long after the visit so its kind of a moot point.
While Jen and I were cleaning out her old toys we decided that my obsession with My Little Ponies as a child may be responsible for my obsession with tattoos now.

Beach

I did manage to make it to the beach a few times this summer. That is the whole point of going home right? Most of the time I was there I just ate lunch there and watched the tourists. One time I saw a bunny playing amongst the squirrels but I think I may have already wrote about that. One of the times I was down there about dusk, it is the perfect time to go because the tourists are about gone because it is too cold for them, I got some cool pics I hope to post soon. Another time I went down was in the midst of the tourists. They are interesting to watch. Most of the tourists we get are either hippies or bikers, but in the last few years we have been getting a good number of families too. There was this one cowboy there and from just watching him you could tell that he had never seen the ocean in person before. There were lots of interesting people there but he sticks out in my mind the most. The other person that really sticks out in my mind is this woman that came up to talk to me when I was rinsing my feet at the faucet. The wind was blowing so my hair was flying everywhere and there is this short wall (about to my chest but not quite) in front of the faucet. My hair is also several shades of green and blonde. And she said she had to tell me that as she was walking up, when I was bent down washing my feet that I looked like mermaid emerging from the ocean. That was kind of cool, especially considering all the flack I have been getting. Although she wasn't the first person this summer to say I had mermaid hair.
