Fantastic Life
Wow, today was amazing by any standards. I did wake up a bit later then usual, but it was okay. Woke up. worked on editing the Horse.13 project page. Removed emilie 's links since she's not really apart of the "family" anymore and added the Trac and Subversion sections. Then I chatted with a couple friends, took a shower and watched some Welcome to the NHK which is hilariously amazing. I really love this series! I've got the first manga in the series, but I sure as hell would love to collect them all :) I've never collected a full manga series, which makes me sad. I've love to get all the Death Note books along with Welcome to the NHK. Maybe Gunslinger Girl too and Couple, hehe I love them all!! :)

Call me weird or whatever...but I'd also like to try out one of those Japanese dating sim games, obviously the non-Hentai ones. Just to see what it's like...maybe I'll snag one of JList or something.

This afternoon I spent at the barn work my horse. We did some jumping which was fun...although the outdoor was a bit mushy...but we had an awesome time nonetheless. I uploaded a couple pictures of him to Facebook. I really want to get another DSLR camera, probably the Canon Digital Rebel XTi or the XSi. Both very amazing. I wish I had my Rebel XT...oh well.

The CPU and motherboard to the new server should be in this week. I'll be ordering the PSU whenever the final funds hit my bank account.

Talked to my farrier today. I'm probably going to install ZenCube or whatever that shopping cart/ecommerce software is called and we'll use that. I think it might be easier to integrate that into the site theme over something like OSCommerce.

Tonight, nothing is going on. Probably watching some more Welcome to the NHK. I probably forgot to mention that I got my "Death Note" in the mail the other week. It's awesome. The first pages contain the rules, the next page has a few names that Light wrote down and the next says "Lind L. Tailor and then some more names. Basically it's amazing!! Any Death Note fan should have one :) morgan and I both got em.

I got a few new JDRAMAs, can't remember the names at the moment. I have so many things I need to watch haha. I think I would like to see Wolverine...has anyone seen it? Thoughts? How about that Star Trek movie? I've not really a Star Trek fan, but I heard it was kind of cool.

Oh yeah, I registered for Fundamentals of Nutrition and Japanese Communication, I am wicked psyched about taking them this summer!!!

Peace out!

	I've never played 'em, but I think Chulip on PS2 and the Rub Rabbits and Feel The Magic on DS are dating sims. I could be wrong, though. XD (Reply to this)(Thread)

	jimmy 2009-05-12 02:21 am UTC (link)
	Sweet, I'll check them out!! Thanks much!! (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	kiokushitaka 2009-05-12 02:25 am UTC (link)
	No problem. :) I hope I'm guessing right on those, I just read the backs to them at work one time and that's the impression I got, lol. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	jimmy 2009-05-12 02:27 am UTC (link)
	Yeah, I think you're right. These are kind of dating sim-ish. Although after looking at them, I dunno if it's exactly what I am looking for. I have heard of the second NDS one you mentioned... I have no idea why I am looking for this shit...I'm such a loser hahaha (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	kiokushitaka 2009-05-12 03:06 am UTC (link)
	You're talking to someone who enjoys the Ace Attorney games, which are, for lack of a better term, Lawyer sims. XD You're not a loser. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	jimmy 2009-05-12 03:07 am UTC (link)
	Haha, I've actually always wanted to try those out. But I never know what to expect...I mean how does it play?? Are there like cases and stuff and you're the lawyer? I guess I should read up haha (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Yeah, you get a case and you're kind of a detective in a lot of ways, too. You have to find evidence to use in court that will help your case and such, talk to witnesses, and piece together the mystery to prove your defendant innocent. There are a lot of puns and things, the game's really fun because of the script. The first one's really good, and the second one's only downfall is a few editorial faux pas. The third one's great and I'm still working on the fourth. They're also releasing a Prosecutor game next year, the date's set for Feb at the moment, but you know how fickle game devs can be. Haha.

For more information, I recommend http://www.court-records.net/

	Haha wow, that actually sounds pretty cool. If I actually had some time, I'd give it a go! There's definitely nothing silly about that type of game, sounds neat! (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	kiokushitaka 2009-05-12 03:27 am UTC (link)
	Oh, don't let my description fool you. There's so much lulz in the game, too. XD I end up laughing a lot when I play it. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Haha well that just makes it better! (Reply to this)(Parent)

	lawton_anime 2009-05-12 02:58 am UTC (link)
	if you are going to get into Gunslinger Girl proceed with season one, followed by Il Teatrino, and the manga, besides both series have some kickass music too! Invalid video URL. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	I actually have Season 1 of GG, I've watched like 4-5 episodes but it was so along that I am going to watch them all over again. I'll check out II Teatrino too, thanks for the suggestions! (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	lawton_anime 2009-05-12 03:01 am UTC (link)
	it is a truely awesome series, also may be a third one sometime in the future coming out, they are up to volume 10 in Japanese and 6 in English (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

I totally agree. I loved it when I watched those few episodes, I don't know why I got sidetracked and stopped watching them. I've got volume one in english...I should get more...haha I always find that the bookstores I visit, never carry the whole series, so getting them all is such a pain...I guess that's one of the main reasons I've never completed a manga series.

	lawton_anime 2009-05-12 03:06 am UTC (link)
	sidetracking happens T_T our Waldenbooks actaully stopped carrying it so I am resorting to OKC for it that and ordering it. When it comes to Il Teatrino watch the OVA first if possible, even though it chronologically comes AFTER that series, it sets the mood I think a lot better for watching episode 1, considering the massive changes compared to series 1. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	jimmy 2009-05-12 03:09 am UTC (link)
	Yeah, our Waldenbooks became Border's, and they definitely carry alot, but never a full series haha Same with the Barnes and Noble across the street. What is OKC? I'll definitely watch the OVA first if that's your recommendation! Of course, I need to make it through season 1 first hahah. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	lawton_anime 2009-05-12 08:43 am UTC (link)
	oh thats just Oklahoma City, there I got both waldenbooks, borders, and barnes & nobles along with some nice high dollar bookstores around downtown as well yes the OVA kicks ass, usually before my favorite girl has been Triela, but lately I have grown more fond of Rico and Petra... they are probably the most loyal out of the cyborgs next to Beatrice (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	jimmy 2009-05-12 04:32 pm UTC (link)
	Oooh, haha duh, I should have known that LOL. I wish we had like a comic book store like I did in Boston...although I visited Boston the other week and went that store and their manga section is down to like one shelf :( I think I liked Triela too. But it's been awhile, so I can't quite remember. (Reply to this)(Parent)
