A GOOD result

After starting to play Tales of Symphonia in Japanese and listening to them chit-chat all the time (as well as read Japanese very fast), I've gotten better at reading the Japanese in books. I read faster and I feel like I remember things better. So something good is happening, right?

EDIT: I have a confession to make. I just can't summon the will to get on Lineage and recover 14 hard-earned levels (and that goddamn ol mahum quest item) that I lost because someone else is stupid. That's what gets me. It's not even my fault this time. I mean, I'm sorry, but I don't have it in me. If that's sad enough, then let's take it up with these people who are running the server, though to be honest, I think they're likely to say good riddance because they want fewer people clogging everything up. IT'S VERY VERY BLEAK. If some miracle is happening and they've got back the raised rates for a little while, for heaven's sake tell me, but otherwise, I'm going to take a break for a little while.

Me and my dad, we're hysterical

Today I entertained myself by playing far, far more Tales of Symphonia than is healthy (but "healthy" is supposed to be no video games at all, isn't it? So that's not saying much) and translating "Angels on Bare Skin" into Japanese. See, this is how I get my jollies. It's 素肌に天使 (suhada ni tenshi), by the way. I am in no way affiliated with Lush, I'm just cuckoo. Wow, it's really hard to type cuckoo without getting cock.

My dad watched the very end of the OC with us tonight. In this scene, Marisa and Seth's new girlfriend suddenly get these lesbian vibes at the very end of the episode. So mom and me were all like, "Oh, no, why does this have to happen, this is so unrealistic, why isn't it Ryan hitting on other guys?" (Note: We already had a gay guy with Luke, we just forgot for a second.) Dad says, "Well, what about him and the other guy? Seth? Didn't you see him, kinda, patting him on the back before?" Yup, my dad suggested Seth x Ryan. Oh my gawwwwd. (HE KNOWS. No, well, maybe not.) My Dad is funnnyyyyyyy. And I was very pleased. (Unless HE KNOWS. No, well, maybe not.)
