It's Friday the 13th...spooky
May. 13th, 2005 07:37 pmYay! Advent Children finally has a release date. It'll be released in Japan on September 14th (no idea when it will be released here though). And yes, one reason I'm excited for AC is just so I can see Vincent Valentine in all his CG-animated glory. I ♥ Vincent Valentine (I swooned over screenshots of him). And I love Final Fantasy 7 plot holes and all.
If anyone out there likes to read National Geographic, you should really check out the May 2005 issue. There are quite a few interesting articles included in this issue, my favorite being the feature article Poison: 12 Toxic Tales. Included with the main article are 12 separate ones, which were also intriguing so I guess I'll talk about them a bit. Feel free to skip this part since its quite LONG and if you have no interest in my ramblings about poison and this certain article.
( 12 Toxic Tales commentary... )
Wow, that was a lot to type out (I'm a bit tired out, haha). And yes, I automatically thought of Count Cain when I read this article 'cause I'm oh so dorky (for those not famaliar with Count Cain, the main character Cain is called The Earl of Poison).
And two days ago I put together a mini-cart/tv stand (it was one of those do-it-yourself-from-a-box-of-wood-parts sort of thing) for my mom (since I am the only member of my family that has the patience for these sort of projects). We had a drill, but being the masochist that I am, I used a lone screwdriver. And then I realized screwdrivers don't function well as hammers and decided that maybe it would be wise to go find one. It took me 2 hours (including a 15 minute break for lunch) to finish it, but I am quite satisfied.
Oh yeah! I went to Waldenbooks and saw this there and had to buy it:

It's a Momiji plushie! Yes! Now I have three Fruits Basket plushies. The other are Kyo (the cat), and Yuki (the rat). And just because, I'm including a pic of all three:
( The Furuba Trio....not the Mabudachi Trio though )
