90s my life.
So, not really in context with today's subject, I downloaded the entire AKFG discography. Do you have any idea how happy this makes me?! I feel like I could go laugh in Senny's face 'cause he no longer has more AKFG than me. Not that he's ever brought it up, but hey.

HAHAHA IN YOUR FACE, SENNY


May truly is the Best Month. Why, you ask? Well, I'll tell you why!
Most months constitute dragging yourself through the week, somehow not learning from all previous experience that the weekend will include nothing but sleeping and being bored, then grumbling about Monday existing. Repeat three times and the month's over.
However, with May (especially this one), there's always something just a few days away:

-first [half-]weekend: Easter
-second weekend: two friends' birthdays and I get to partake in my Mom's cake on mother's day and we usually go out for dinner, so that, too
-third weekend: Yeah, you'd better know.
-fourth weekend: Anime North!! My costume isn't done!! Crap!! Also, long weekend!!
-fifth weekend: t's the end of May. The school year's over [for all purposes]. Also, my cousin's coming to stay with us a few days after, so that's pretty cool.

Five weekends in one month. Crazy, crazy stuff.


Last night, I stayed up later than is good for me on a school night watching Global. There was this special on about some new drug that would let you have only four periods a year.
Basically, they interviewed a bunch of women, of all ages, asking them their opinions on the idea of suppressing menstruation.
Obviously, most thought it was a pretty cool idea. Then, there were a few people who seemed to find it the purest form of blasphemy. The funny thing was, all these women, barring one, were of post-menopausal years.
I bet they were just bitter because they had to live through those weird, hooky things they sometimes mention in books that take place back in the day. Those things sound frigging creepy. O_o""
The arguments they gave were mostly along the lines of, "It's part of being a woman! It's my identity as part of the female gender!" Which pissed me off fantastically.
The whole purpose of menstruation is to have babies. Nobody gives a crap about having babies more than four times--at most--in their life, at two year intervals or more. So why should any one find it so important to go through the process of all that pre-baby uterine crap thirteen times a year, every year, for thirty years? Why?! What are you, some kind of woman-hating masochist?!

As an aside, seeing Peter Mansbridge try and keep a straight face while introducing the topic of "the Curse" was quite funny.
I'd like to see the Pope try and get an appreciable word in on this one. Actually, I can see it now...

"God says...uhh. Er. [brief silence] Gwaaaaa... Can't we just, you know...punch some girlchildren or something??"

That bastard.


The raccoons are vindictive little fucks, it turns out. The other night, they were making enough noise to scare off all of Vietcong, so my dad got pissed and called some animal-removal chaps. (Humane ones, I promise. u.u)
Of course, this morning, right before they got here, the raccoons up and left.

Now those animal-removal chaps must think we're all crazy. : / "The raccoons...I can hear them...! They're...in the walls!"
