This will be my last post as Hakkai chan. It has been a long but productive day today. I got a lot accomplished at work and tonight I finished my prologue to my brand new fanfic and the name of it will be....TA DAaaa...Legacy of the Red Butterfly. I won't be posting at ff.net until I get a lot more of the story done. I have to make sure that the characters are going to let me take my story in the direction I have planned. I should know in a week or two.
So Sayonara my friends. come see me under my new LJ name....Otaku Mom...what else would it be? :-) |

Hello all. This is going to be a really short entry. I've spent the whole evening reading a Fushigi Yugi fanfics and a couple 3, 4 , 5 maybe Furuba fics. What can I say. I found a couple of Shigure/Tohru matchups and I had to see how they were handled. Verrry interesting. Yuki_chan and I are working on two separate Furuba stories but they are tied together. I got her to sign up on ff.net so we can both post Not sure how the collaboration is going to work, but I will enjoy working on my fic and working parts of hers into it. Yuki_chan is my daughter. She's 25 and I'm...well I'm older of course. We both love anime. It's all her fault I got into the darn stuff to start with. I'm not really complaining though because I really love it. I've developed an addicition to fan fiction now though, that can be dangerous. It's fun though!
Oyasumi nesai. Sweet dreams. |

I am so very excited. That's where I posted my first attempt at fanfiction and people seem to have really liked it! It makes me so happy to know I can do something and do it well! If you like Fruits Basket, I think you will like this story. One night I was sitting at the dining table daydreaming after watching Fruits Basket and suddenly I was hit by a bolt of lightning~! What if Kyoko and Kyo had met when he and Tohru were both very small. The story took a couple of odd twists and suddenly what I had considered to be a one shot is begging for a sequel.
http://www.fanfiction.net/s/1976188/1/
Actually here's the story. The other is just my profile page. I can't wait until I get supper prepared so I can sit down and work on it! Actually I promised myself I would clean up the living room and backroom before I started working. I neglected them badly last week as we were preparing for JC II and I was working on my first story. It's addictive...I have to check my e-mail everytime I turn around to see if any new reviews have come in. I'm like one of those kids on Christmas morning who didn't go to sleep until 2 am and was up and ready to open presents at 5 am...oh wait! I was one of those kids :-) I know eventually my bubble is going to be burst and I am going to have to come back to earth, but for now I am going to enjoy every minute.
On another note, JC II was this past weekend. Some things went quite well and other things went not so good. We had some problems with scheduling and panel members didn't show up to conduct their panels, the karaoke had problems...oh well, it's a learning experience. JC III is going to be much better. There's a lot of room for improvement and I think we've got the will to make it better. I was really proud of all my Otaku kids, Aya-chan, Rei-chan,Kyo-chan, Yuki-chan, Tasu-chan, E-chan, Mardok-kun, Shigure kun and C-kun were all great. After I know c-kun better I'll think of a better name for him.
and still another note...I think I mentioned in an earlier post that work wasn't going as well as I liked...well things are definitely looking up. I am caught up and it feels so good! Another reason to be euphoric! That's the emotion I wanted but it wasn't in the list.
Good night all. I have so much to do and so little time to do it tonight!

Life has been a bit on the crazy side lately. I'm not really sure why it seems that way but it does. PMX, my mom's visit, lots of work at the office,taking my mother-in-law home to Bullhead City this weekend and Rebel actually being home to watch anime with me. We watched Initial D 1st, 2nd, and 3rd stage. Need to get the 4th stage from Shigure. I've also been revisiting my favorites. Card Captor Sakura and Fruits Basket in particular. I've seen PreTear and Spiral Deduction all the way through. Hmmmm...that could be why I haven't been posting to live journal. I've been watching a lot of anime. And then there are all the fanfics I have been reading,Fruits Basket and Slayers Fan Fics mostly. Some of them were really good and others were really stupid. I forgot how addicted I could get to reading good stories. I also actually wrote my own Fruits Basket Fan Fic, it's not too bad if I do say so for myself.Yuki-chan said she liked it as well, so it must be okay. Of course, it could be invalidated when I am done reading all the Fruits Basket manga. So far only three of them have come out here. I took some major liberties with Tohru and Kyoko during Tohru's early childhood.
I sense a recurring theme in this post, Fruits Basket. I am newly obsessed with Fruits Basket...or re newly if that could be considered a word.
What else have I done with my summer...hmmm. I've spent some time in the swimming pool. Almost have to when it is still 100 plus degrees after the sun goes down. It would be foolish not to take advantage of our backyard pool.
Well I ramble on and really have nothing interesting to add so I shall close. I will try to post more regularly in the future.
Ja mata,

It's really quiet this morning. My Hubby is out back listening to a Diamondbacks ballgame. Shigure, Yuki_chan, P_chan, and Tasu are all asleep in the living room. That Shigure...sharing a room with three girls..what else can you expect though? After all, he is Shigure.
I'm not sure why, but I'm feeling a major disconnect with everything right now. I usually love to spend time with Yuki_chan, Shigure, Mardok, P_chan, Rei_chan, Tasu, and Shigure's sister.( I don't have a nickname for her at the moment...I'll think of one shortly) and now Elfling, but yesterday I just wasn't really in the mood. It could be because the last week seemed really stressful.
I'm a little bit under the gun at work because my desk has a lot of old issues on it that I may or may not have cleared up. I'm not really sure. It seems like I never have any downtime at work and sometimes I wonder if it's a lack of competence on my part, which I really don't believe or If I am trying to help too many other people and not focusing on my desk as I should. I love being able to fulfill, client requests, collector's requests, and the branch personel's requests, but....I think I am going to have to tell them to go through the proper channels for a while. I was really unhappy when my manager said that any requests for my branch and clients had to be routed through her. Mostly because she didn't tell me she was going to do that. I found out second hand from one of the people I work with frequently. I don't like that at all. I know she is just giving me a chance to catch everything up, but it feels like a slap on the wrists, like she thinks I'm not capable of doing my job. I guess I have something to prove to her and to myself. I'm sure in a week or two I'll feel better about everything.
On a lighter note, I really enjoyed PMX. It was a lot of fun observing the Karaoke, the cosplay, the viewing rooms and the panels I attended. I thought the con was pretty well organized although the event scheduling could have been a bit better in a couple of cases. I had a chance to view PreTear, Wolf's Rain, Someday Dreamers, and Gungrave. I fell in love with Pretear and bought the whole set. Someday Dreamers is really sweet and I'd like to see more. I didn't really like Gungrave all that well...too dark I think. Wolf's Rain is still an enigma to me, I'm not sure I like it, but I keep watching it....I wanted to watch a few others but my timing didn't work out too well with them, I especially wanted to check out Witch Hunter Robin, but didn't manage to do so. I did go watch a Japanese movie with live people doing the acting (gasp!) That's a rarity for me, and I really liked it. However, the end left me wondering if I had come to the right conclusions during the movie. I thought one of the primary characters was killed, but then I wasn't so sure at the end. .
I watched "The Last Samurai" a couple of days ago. The acting was really good and the plot was interesting. It made me cry in a few places, but I didn't mind I love movies that can move you to tears. I also saw "Return of the King" It was excellent, very moving and very exciting. I loved it. both of these are definitely must buys for my non anime movie collection .
I'm just rambling on, nothing really special to say. I haven't updated in a while so I thought this morning would be a good time.
To Yuki_chan and all of her group, sumimasen. I'm not sure what my problem has been, but I will be back to my usual self soon....I do still love all of you.

Good Morning. I am really sleepy today. I tried to help yuki_chan with her costume last night but the stupid sewing machine thread kept breaking. I really do have to figure out what is causing that problem. A simple 10 minute job can take 2 hours when that happens. I've been shorting myself on sleep the last 3 nights in a row and I can definitely tell that something has got to give.
Monday night I watched Return of the King with Rebel. It was a fantastic movie, a must have. The special effects were awesome and of course the acting was excellent. I am going to reread Tolkien's trilogy one day soon. I think the movies were fairly true to the original story.
Tuesday night I was trying to do a simple sewing job and had the same problem as last night.
Fortunately, yuki_chan had the perseverance to finish up her project after I went to bed. It doesn't look too bad for a rush job. She did great. Rei_chan, P_chan, Aya, Shigure, and Yuki_chan are all ready for PMX and are leaving today. They are going to visit some of their friends they met at Animagic today and arrive at PMX tomorrow. I am going to join them either tomorrow night or possibly Saturday afternoon. Depends on how much sleep I manage to get tonight.
I feel kinda bad leaving right after work on Friday which is my plan at present because my hubby's birthday is Friday. Maybe I will take him out for our own private celebration tonight....it does have possibilities :-)
Tomorrow AJ and BurgerBoy (her boyfriend) are going to treat him to dinner, so maybe it won't be so horrible of me to leave. I am really excited to be going to PMX. I am sure it's going to be lots of fun! I'm thinking next year I may try to put together a couple of costumes. Not this year though...it would take too much material to make a costume for my present girth.
I think the kids are all going to look fantastic. I am really looking forward to the CosPlay.
Well, Ja mata. Have a wonderful 3 day weekend all!!!!

| » Some things are more important than a clean house |
The living room and the kitchen are clean, it took a good 4 hrs to get everything done, but it was worth it. However, I realized this morning that a dirty house is a minor irritant. The news from Iraq has really dealt me a wake up call.
What happened to the Iraqui prisoners at the hands of American soldiers is troubling. There was outrage and there should have been. America is handling it though. The investigation was underway and court martials already scheduled for the perpetrators.
However, what about Nick Berg? Where is the outrage about the beheading of an innocent American citizen, 26 years old. I have children almost that age, he could have been my son. Yes, what was done at the prison was wrong but all of the men and women serving over there do not deserve to be painted with the same brush. At least these prisoners were Iraquis actively fighting against the US and its allies, but Nick Berg wasn't fighting against the Iraquis, he doesn't even belong to the military. He was over there helping them rebuild their country. He was just a young man looking forward to going home....I don't understand the radical Islam mentality. What makes it so right to kill innocent civilians, why does it seem they are never condemned by the world at large. However, let some country try to do something about it, Israel or America or one of our allies and a handful of soldiers defy convention and do what they know they should not and the whole world condemns us.
You know, I can stand the condemnation of the world, but why do we have to have it within our own country and why does it have to be aimed at our servicemen and women. Granted, many people think going to war with Iraq was wrong, I think it was the right thing. The thing is, men and women have fought and died on numerous battlefields to give us the right to condemn our own nation if we so desire. In almost any third world country we would be tortured and maybe even beheaded for expressing those thoughts.
When I was a child people fought for the right to be Americans and a part of a United country. Red, black, yellow, white and brown all wanted to be a part of this nation and have equal rights with all other Americans. At one time I think there was a unity of purpose. That is why we fought and won our Revolution. That is why the Civil War eventually came to a close. That is why we fought France, Mexico, and Spain and won. That is why we were one of the deciding factors in WW I and WW II. Americans went into battle with a unified purpose, to protect and defend not only our own freedom, but the freedom of the rest of the free world as well. What has happened to that unity? Now we have Black Americans, Latin Americans, American Indians, Sino Americans, and so on down the list. There is a big push for diversity. All of the flavors in our melting pot have been separated into their own individual compartments. We are no longer simply Americans, and I think that is one of the greatest obstacles our country will have to overcome if we wish to stay the greatest nation on the face of this Earth.
Okay, I'm off my soap box. I just have one request. Memorial Day is coming up. It is a time for remembering the men and women who have fought for our nation. Remember our vets, send a note of encouragement to friends you may have in the service, let them know that we are proud of them and are supportive of them. Thanks.

I am really and truly ticked off this time...royally!!!! If grown up children who live at home don't have time to help with the housework then I guess this mom doesn't have time to help with things like transportation, sewing projects, and anything else the grown up child needs help with.
On another note, things at work are going well. If I can continue to stay focused, I think I may have my desk cought up by the end of the week.
I am going to get the housework caught up tonight. It better stay that way for the rest of the week. yes, I guess I really am not a happy camper right now. I better close this journal entry so I can get the house clean before it gets to be too late. I just love working 9 or 10 hours and coming home and doing housework.
That's it for now. next time maybe I will be in a better frame of mind.

| » 10:45 pm already...where did my day go? |
Hail hail the gangs all here...but everyone is kinda doing their own thing tonight. P_chan was here earlier but she had to be home by 3pm or so. We are missing Tasu, a lot of costumes on that plate.
Yuki_chan is working on the ADF website. Shigure is still distilling yuki_chan's crashed disk to recover as much info as possible. Rei_chan and Aya_chan are in the kitchen decorating cakes. Mardok is probably chatting with Shigure. They are both on Yuki_chan's computer.
As for me, I am reading New Spring by Robert Jordan. It's a prequel to Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time series. In a weird sort of way, I have Robert Jordan and his Wheel of Time series to thank for my current interest in anime. yuki_chan met a few friends on the Wheel of time message boards and they introduced her to anime. Then, yuki_chan hooked me into her insane world of anime. I've loved every moment, pretty much.
I think I'm swinging back toward more reading and less watching of anime. I read David Eddings latest book called "The Dreamers". It's the first in his The Elder Gods series. I also read Jane Auel's Shelter of Stone. Next in line is Tom Clancy's newest book (that I own) called Teeth of the Tiger. It's been a long time since I've done this much reading.
Well I've nothing witty or amusing to relate so I will say good night.

Konbanwa my friends. It's been a long week although I only had to work 3 days. I never had such a long 3 days. P_chan and Rei_chan are in the living room watching Saiyuuki 7. Yuki_chan is at work, hopefully she will not be totally exhausted on her day off tomorrow. Rebel is out with "him" and AJ is out with her "him". Wonder of wonders, AJ and her "him" came over to our house to watch a movie.
Rebel bought herself a new car...not the smartest decision for her to make right now. It's a really nice car, it's a 2004 Dodge Neon, black with a gray interior. I just think she would have been smarter to wait for a few more months before making such a huge committment...can you tell I'm her mother?
The trip to Texas was wonderful, but I got so frustrated Saturday night (May 1st) because I tried to do a journal entry 2 different times and wound up losing it both times. Obviously it never posted as this is the first entry I've completed in several days.
Let me tell you about Texas...it was beautiful there. The hummingbirds were really fun to watch. My momma is doing much better than I expected. her hubby is a good guy with a crude sense of humor, but that is okay. My brother was his usual bratty self (again as expected). I don't mind cause he is a lot of fun even if he does love to tease his big sister. Did I mention he is my "little" brother...if 6'0 and 220 lbs can be considered little. We took a short ride on his quad runner. I wish we'd had more time as I would have liked to ride on it a while longer. It's a blast. The wildflowers...have I mentioned these before...of course not ...we saw several fields. Some were completely full of bluebonnets, others of Indian Paintbrushes, and others of Sweet William (or verbena as my mom's husband likes to call it). Absolutely awe inspiring. We live in a wonderful world.
What did I miss most while I was in Texas? Hmmm....must be my ADF children. That will be remedied this month though as I am going to PMX with them! I know that is going to be a fun trip. I am really looking forward to it.
Well, gotta close. I have to go visit the vampire tomorrow (United Blood Services) and donate some platelets. later, I'm sure we'll do some jaunting around and then I will have to take P-chan home...so sad...wish she could stay longer. Rei_chan, Yuki_chan, and P_chan have such a wonderful time together. Throw Tasu and Aya into the mix with Shigure and Mardok looking on...it's wild!!!
Oyasuminesai.
One of these days, I'll get the good night right but for now....

Konnichiwa. It's another nice day in Texas. It's a bit cloudy today, we are expecting rain tonight and through the rest of the week. Guess the remainder of my vacation may be a damp one. That's okay though, I never see enough rain in AZ.
Didn't do a whole lot yesterday. Visited, went to Walmart, GoodWill, and a few other small shops. On Friday we will go to Waco and go to Fort Worth on Saturday. We are expecting my brother and sister to come here either tonight or tomorrow and my old friend from High School might show up tomorrow. Will be surprised if he does. I don't know what I do all day long, but it goes by really fast. I do spend a lot of time watching the cardinals scoop up the cat food Dan leaves on the porch railings. And the humming birds at the feeders are fascinating. They aren't the sweet tempered little creatures I imagined them being. They are very territorial and keep chasing each other away from the feeders. They are very stubborn as well and keep coming back to the feeders. They actually make bird noises, I don't know why I thought they were silent except for the whirr of their wings. Obviously there is a lot to learn in this world.
Well, ja mata. See you next time around.

Good Morning everyone! Actually it is 11:30 but, it's still morning. Walked around the homestead here and looked at all the wildflowers. The ones Jeff and I thought were so pretty on the drive are Indian Blankets. They are also called Mexican hats or Firewheels depending on the coloration. We saw a beautiful flower that I fell in love with. It was such a deep blue it was almost purple. That was blue larkspur, it rivals my bluebonnets for favorite flowers. It's been fun so far, I haven't done a whole lot, but I have been visiting with my momma and Dan and that's what I came for. My brother and sister will probably both be here tomorrow night or Thursday morning. I am really looking forward to seeing them. I am going into town with Momma when she gets up from her morning nap.
One drawback to this place, the phone is rotary, not touchtone. I think I will probably find a payphone when I get into town and make some phone calls. Rotary makes it really hard to use a calling card, or just call the telephone info line for the bank coz they are all geared to touchtone. Oh well, I could live with that if I could see such beautiful flowers every day.
We are sleeping out in the bungalow, it's just a storage shed the Dan converted to a bedroom for Momma. I got up last night about 2:00 and stepped out the door. The stars were so huge and so close!!! I haven't seen so many stars so close up in so long. It was beautiful. I went through the house and out the front door to get a closer look as there weren't any lights on on that side of the house. My mother was still up, so I ended up going back indoors after a few minutes and chatting with her for quite a while. It was probably after 3:00 when I stumbled back to bed.
In a week we'll be home again. Meanwhile, yuki_chan I know you are reading this, let AJ and Rebel know we love all three of you and miss you a little bit. Not much yet...:-) You might see if they want to read my journal entries, My hous better still be there after Wednesday!!!! No lighting propane in the living room or inviting the Bloods and the Crypts to the house (That's a warning for Shigure and Mardok :-) ) You know I'm really not worried (not much anyway). Ya'll have fun and we'll see you in a few days.

konnichiwa all...we made it to Texas in one piece. It was a very relaxing trip. My other half did most of the driving. I drove about 2 1/2 hours out of the 16 hours driving time. Reminds me of when I took AJ and Rebel to Montana last summer. I let each of them drive about 1 or 2 hours, and I drove the other humpteen hours.
The weather is beautiful here. Only 78 degrees or so and 50 at night. And the wildflowers...oh my goodness are there ever wildflowers. Bluebonnets, Indian paintbrushes, Indian blankets, wine cups, Sweet William and so many I don't even know the name of. There really is no nicer season than Springtime in East Texas. The paintbrushes are a plethora of color, ranging from pale pink to vibrant red, with blues and purples and oranges. It is wonderful. There are a lot of goldenflowers with dark red centers and redgold flowers with dark red centers, they must be the same kind, I just don't know what they are called. Momma, Dan and I are going for a walk a little later to see the wildflowers on their property. I will probably find out the names of them then. I am so glad we came.
Was reading Yuki_chan's journal entries and those of some of the other members of the cast, I sure hope the house is still in one piece when I get home again :-)
To Yuki_chan, Rebel, and AJ...Love you girls, see you in a week. To the rest of the crew, Shigure, Mardok. p_chan, aya_chan, rei_chan, tasu....have fun and keep yuki from getting in too much trouble :-)
Bye for now, time to go watch the humming birds at the feeders and see how many varieties of cardinals and other birds I can spot. I love being in the middle of 20 acres of forest

Bet you thought you were done with me for the night. I've been chatting with my sister and another anime fan on my IM. I do enjoy online chats as long as I can type and don't have to talk. I hate voice chats for some reason.
I had a couple of comments to make after reading Yuki_chan's rant about her sister's boyfriend. "him" as she calls him. I didn't like him at first. But anyone who will cut down a large limb (about 18 inches in circumference) just because you ask him to can't be all bad. Besides, Yuki's sister has changed but not all for the bad. I think she's having a good influence on "him" and he's certainly helped her increase her self confidence and ability to display affection. That's not a bad thing. I didn't like him at first...he was in a dark cloud. He was dressed as a Goth and is a Skater. Not my idea of the group for my daughters to run with. He seems much lighter now and he cleaned up very well. He had to get his hair cut for his new job. I'm willing to give him a chance.
Well that's it for tonight. Will visit again sometime. Good night all

Well today was another long day, I'm going to kill myself before I go on vacation I fear. Maybe not, vacation is less than 48 hours away. One more day of work...it'll be a long one I am guessing and then sweet freedom! If only it wasn't so much work to get ready for vacation..

| » It's a busy week |
I absolutely hate the week before vacation and the week after I get back from vacation. Vacation is coming up, we are leaving for Texas late Saturday afternoon or early Saturday evening. We'll be gone until May 4th. The vacation I am definitely looking forward to...I'll get to see my Momma and her husband, my sister and her family, my brother and his family, my old high school flame...oops did I just type that. Well you get the picture.
I hate the week before because I get all stressed out making sure everything is done so no old issues come up while I am gone. I hate the week after because then I am catching up on everything new that happened. It is definitely challenging, those two weeks.
Have a houseful tonight. Yuki_chan, Rei_chan, Shigure, and Mardok. My youngest girl is home too, she and my hubby were playing Cribbage. I brought work home tonight. Have you ever tried sorting paperwork while Mardok and Shigure are in the background telling you about all the disasters they are going to visit upon your house while you are on vacation...I didn't think so :-)
I'll be lucky to have a house when I get back if they follow through on their dreamed up threats..of course they won't. they are good kids.
Will try and update again later this week but gotta get back to work. It's a lovely night, wish I was doing something more fun.

I get to be the OTAKU MOM today. Yuki-chan loves me for this. She let Stitch give me a hug...so sweet.
Today is going to be busy. WE'll hit our usual haunts, Samurai Comics, Planet Neo, SunCoast, Fry's Electronics...etc. Mardok spent the night last night so we could get an early start on the day...early being 10:00 in our household. We pick up P-chan this morning and Tasu this evening. Shigure and Aya-chan will be over tonight. Mardok will spend the evening. It should be a lot of fun. Rei-chan will be here also. Not sure who else to expect.
This is how I earn my title. Running yuki-chan and friends around and providing a gathering place for our group. I really enjoy it!!!
bye, time to get ready for the day.

Okay, I'm back again. I just realized I haven't used Shigure in one of my posts so decided to add a little more today. After all I've used Ha'ri twice already. Mardok and Shigure were over at the house yesterday. One of Shigure's friends also came over. Wednesday nights are definitely becoming more testosterone driven. Yuki-chan and I were definitely outnumbered. Interesting conversation though...started with Transformers and by the end Shigure was explaining Physics to Mardok. They were also wondering about the nature of time, heat , light, and I can't remember what else. Really deep questions. I decided I would read CardCaptor Sakura since I didn't get in at the beginning of the conversation..I bought the first set of 3 books several days ago. Can't believe I'm just now reading them.. Went through all three last night. I love the Master of the Clow mangas covering the last half of CCS.. These first 3 are quite entertaining, even more so than the anime. I'd like to watch CCS again, but Yuki-chan is beginning to get extremely bored with it, of course she's seen it several times. I have also, but not as much as her.
OKay, now back to work. Like I said, just had to use Shigure at least once. Ja Ne

I can't believe how much I got accomplished at work yesterday. It's amazing how much paperwork I can get through when I'm not thinking about Bishounen or anime or live-journal or my upcoming trip to Texas.
This must be a pastel kind of week for me. Just laid back, nothing especially urgent. I wore a lavender dress yesterday and am wearing a pastel yellow one with flower prints today. It seems a little overdressed for my office but it makes me feel pretty :-)
