If I had a million dollars...
...I'd buy more manga. REally. I was at a bookstore, and suddenly decided to count all the titles I'd like to at least read a volume of:
Ranma 1/2
Rorouni Kenshin
Rising Stars of Manga
Inu-Yasha
FLCL
Chobits
No Need for Tenchi
Excel Saga
Big O
Lupin III
Dang...and that's just what I remember. Needless to say, I don't buy anywhere near that much. Think I might be more of a manga fan than anime fan. Why not? Manga is, after all, a fusion of comics and anime. I like comics. I like anime. Manga+DeathBug = :) Besides, anime is a lot more expensive. $20 for a DVD doesn't sound too apealing for something I might hate.
Then, that's the Thing, isn't it? I can't know which anime I really like until I see it, but I can't see most of it unless I buy it, and I won't buy it unless I really like it. I need to join a club or something. Anyone get around this particular problem? Am I doomed to be at the mercy of Cartoon network, Kids' WB and FoxBox for all eternity?
A while ago, I was working on an original fiction, but life intervened. Iv'e decided to revive it. In the meantime, here's a link tol what I wrote thus far, the Sol Chronicles:

Enjoy. ^__^
Thought of the moment: Blink 182 + Lead singer of the Cure = :)DB:)
Quote of the moment:
I'm seeing this girl and she just might be out of her mind
Well she's got baggage and it's all the emotional kind
She talks about closure and that validation bit
I don't mean to be insensitive, but I really hate that s***
Oh man she's got issues
And I'm gonna pay
She thinks she's the victim
Yeah
Now I know she'll feel abandoned
If I don't stay over late
And I know she's afraid to commit
But it's only our second date
Oh man she's got issues
And I'm gonna pay
She thinks she's the victim
But she takes it all out on me
I don't know why you're messed up
I don't know why your whole life is a chore
Just do me a favor
And check your baggage at the door
Now she talks about her ex nonstop, but I don't mind
But when she calls out his name in bed
That's where I draw the line
You told me a hundred times how your father left and he's gone
But I wish you wouldn't call me daddy
When we're gettin' it on
Oh man she's got issues
And I'm gonna pay
She's playing the victim
And taking it all out on me
My god she's got issues
And I'm gonna pay
If you think I'm controlling
Then why do you follow me around
If you're not co-dependent
Then why do you let others drag you down
I don't know why you're messed up
I don't know why your whole life is a chore
Just do me a favor
And check your baggage at the door
