Worthless Human. Thing.

I am useless, and I think I'm rather fond of it. My average day includes twelve hours sleep, three hours eating at the last nine hours watching anime online/playing video games/maybe writing. What a wonderful existence I live. Dash it all, I hope I can make myself do something when the time comes.

Here and Away Again

Today, my Jap'nese luncheon box came in the post--from Jap'n, I might add. Finding the package, I suddenly remembered my poor, neglected blog. You all missed me, right? Right? Riiiiight. You people won't even pay the comment tax! You're all illegal blog-readers! I take that back. Henry and and Ned are good. You two are legal.
In any case, worthless internet addicts, I am about to go on a very long holiday, an entire fortnight, abroad in Italy.
Look at me, the international traveler, ja?! I've spent summer in Jap'n--and become subsequently addicted to it's culture--and I'm off to Italy! Now to complete things, I cannot decide which country to settle in. New Zealand is the current destination. Great weather, English speaking and they filmed Lord of the Rings there. What more do I need?! We're talking about the film Lord of the Rings here, people!
Kiwis aside, because I love you all so much (and will be intensely bored in aeroplane rides and such) I will record my lengthy adventure (Adventure, noun, meaning; adult slang: Any outing that has gone intensely wrong) abroad for you in actual writing form. I will then type it all up for you ungrateful plebeians and post it on my emaciated blog. Happy, Ned?

Scary Solstice




Enough about crazy Japanese luncheons. I have located a copy of A Very Scary Solstice by those tupping amazing people down at the HP Lovecraft Historical Society. They are like heroes or something. Scary solstices aside (There's two volumes of Lovecraft'd carols) the CD version of Shoggoth on the Roof has me positively quaking, though it is truly questionable whether from fear or giggles.
I have a personal love of the song, If I Were A Deep One allegedly by Old Man Marsh.

'If I were a Deep One,
blub blub blub blub blub blub blub blub blub blub blub blub!
All day long I'd swim a'neath the sea, if I were a Deep One!
Terrify the tourists,
blub blub blub blub blub blub blub blub blub blub blub blub!
If I were an icky, icky fish scaly slippery frog-eyed kind of man...'

We all want that, and you know it.

Jap'n foods







The Japanese people have the weirdest lunches ever. I found this site; Bento Box and through it some of the things Japanese people use to make bento lunch boxes.
I have only this to say: It is a strange and wonderful culture indeed where one can purchase cocktail wiener shapers, cup noodle mugs that one can actually make cup noodle in, Hello Kitty pancake molds and--best for last--Hello Kitty boiled egg shapers. You can use them for onigiri too, if you're keen to.

On the side (from bottom to top 'cos I'm BA that way) is a penguin cocktail wiener cutter, fruity-lookin' mayonnaise holder-thingies, the promised Hello Kitty boiled-egg shaper and the bento box I plan on begging my da to buy.

GRAWR GRAWR EAT.

My bloggy-friends all suck. The most recently any of them has blogged was a month ago. A TUPPIN' MONTH AGO. Aaron, Kibbles, Meggles, Rawren. You all suck. A month. I can't do a week. You know what? I may have an addiction, but yeh know what? My addiction gives people who are bored at work somethin' to do. BUUUUUUUUURN!
Also, my stomach hurts.
This has been an announcement. Or somethin'...

Politics

I'm curious; where does the rest of the world get its political news, or news in general? I'm pretty much only getting mine from the Daily Show (site here) and the Colbert Report (site here). I prefer the Daily Show because Steven Colbert is a prick.
There'll be a poll on the side with some options, but if you're fond of something I know I'll miss, put it in the comments.

Well.


This is a little awkward. I mean, usually I blog every few days, but recently... I got nothing. All I have done recently is sleep, surf and eat. And watch telly. This is really embarrassing for me, and I am terribly ashamed of myself. To make up for this; David Tennant (the latest Doctor Who) in a man-skirt. He's a Scot, you know.
