"I don't have any problems with humans. I have problems with idiots, most of the idiots I know are human because most of the people I know are human. I try not to confuse the two."

Squeal, glomp, huggle, insert-more-happy-sounding-words-here. Someone who GETS it! Yes! ^_^

Well, I'm back, obviously. Back as in I-have-internet-connection. And, amazingly enough, a scanner. Woo! What I don't have on me is my password into Keen, which I keep on forgetting to change to something memorizable. *bashes head into desk*

I'll update CAGE... sometime. Really. I promise.

I've got another fic idea. I don't feel like working on any of the old ones, and haven't for a while, but I've got an idea for an angsty 1x2x1 songfic. Leaving the lyrics out, though, because I think typing them in would just get in the way in this case. Here's my problem, though. I generally write stories all in one sitting, and then immediately send them out to someone who'll read them. This means mailing lists, creative writing classes, ff.net... something. But I'm not on any GW mls, and ff.net is down. So, in typical Kiti fashion, I find myself putting the fic off, even though I have nothing better to do at the moment and I really do want to write. Damnit. Bad Kiti. Bad, bad Kiti. Do something productive, damnit!

I have done absolutely nothing of any real productivity in the past three days. Don't get me wrong, the past few weeks were absolutely full of activity and I needed a break. But this is unusual for me. And I'm not really motivated to go do something (self-motivation not exactly my strongpoint. Inspiration, yes. Inclination to get off my lazy butt and make the ideas into something solid, no). I need deadlines. Damnit.

Something I do have a deadline for, though--Otakon and Shoujocon. Cosplays. Woo. Yep, my little group will be back at Otakon this year, and hitting Shoujocon for the first time. No one remembers us from Otakon, I'm sure, except maybe that wonderful YYH group--hi! *waves* If you're in the New England area you might remember us, though. We're the psychos that actually cosplayed at those last two tiny conventions. What was up with BAAF? >.< We're the group with the little kid who everyone says is cute. She may have bitten you if you said that to her face. Yeah, that group.

Oh, and we always love running into people cosplaying the same series (or even characters) we are. So, if anyone cares, here's the much-revised list of our cosplays for this summer:

RG Veda--No, you haven't heard of it. Don't bother trying to figure it out.
Random Clamp Characters--I'm Subaru! TB version! I love that outfit! =^.^=
YYH--Jin, Touya, and other semi-minor characters from that tournament
FY--THTC, with plushie versions of our characters. ^.^
GW--yes, a million other people will be doing this too. No, we don't care.

...*thinking* Four of the five are crossplays for me... And I wanted to start doing more female outfits... ;_; Ah, well. Subaru's outfit is wicked cool, so it's all okay.

I'm debating throwing together one of Kurai's more normal-looking outfits, too. Seeing as I actually have her hairstyle (hair mostly short, but with one long ponytail). But I probably won't, unless some AS cosplayers e-mail me looking for a Kurai. Which is not likely, seeing as I'm not exactly active in online cosplaying circles. Whatever. Maybe next year. Or something. The next con after these is Yaoi-con, which I am definitely going to--if I can find someone to room with. *crosses fingers* There's actually an anime club around here that I've been trying to get in touch with for ages. I met the girl who runs it, she's a complete yaoi freak, and by all acounts most of the club is, too. *smirk* It seems that I might actually be in town for this week's meeting, maybe I'll see if I can stop by and find some new victi--I mean, friends. ^.^

In other words... I have recently become addicted to neopets.com. *hangs head in shame* You see what free time does to me? Someone demand a fic, damnit!

Gonna be away from the comp for a while. Should get back sometime Friday. Which--since I can't get to the scanner right now--this week's CAGE update will be on Friday at the earliest. >.< Sorry, but I just haven't been at home long enough to update anything!

You know, I've been home for one full day since vacation started. One. The heck? Most of the places I've been at the rest of the time have at least had internet access, though. Well, this place will too, but I probably won't be able to use it.

Here. Entertain yourselves while I'm gone. Reminds me of these guys, but without the sex and drugs. Well... less sex and drugs, anyway.

Woo! Pow-pow, SMIRK, Yuusuke-saMA! *swoons*

Heh. Watched the... um... third-from-last episode of YYH today. Heh-heh. *smirks and flips a V-sign* I'm in a... yeah. Mood. Not my fault if I'm incoherent.

See, this is what I love about YYH. I love it as much as I love FY, I think, except that YYH is Xeen's series, but we all watch it, 'cause, well, it's YYH. Duh. But, with FY, when we're into it, we just sit perfectly still on the couch and don't move throuout the episode, 'cause that's how into it we are. Don't move, don't distract. In YYH, I'm moving with every punch, and when Youmi went woosh-twirl-twirl-slam I was like "Huh?!" the same as everyone else in the stadium, (else? I was in the stadium? ...sure, okay, yeah! Yeah, I was! Heh...) with the eyebrows in a V and the jaw hanging open. Same look Yuusuke had. And he was Yuusuke-SAMA in this episode, people! Most of the time he's just Yuusuke-the-guy-I-love-and-want-to-go-have-a-couple-beers-with but this time he was Yuusuke-son-of-Raizen-Lord-of-the-Makai-get-out-of-the-way-before-he-kicks-your-ever-lovin'-ASS, people! Hoo! Well, for the first half, then there was Raizen-sama *swoon!* and Keiko and "You have MY blood, you're NOT gonna lose!" and then he was back to let's-kick-some-butt-and-then-go-party!-or-heck-the-butt-kicking-IS-the-party-we-have-enough-fun-doing-it!-Yuusuke. *squeal* And then, smirk! Yuusuke smirk! Youmi smirk! Pow-pow, pow-pow! Awww... *swoons* So sweet!

^_^

It occured to me, while watching, that most people do NOT have these kinds of reactions to fighting shows. If you're not a YYH fan, you'd probably assume that Youmi's woosh-twirl-twirl-SPLAT thing was a GOOD. "He's the bad guy, right? Yuusuke won, right?" Whereas I screamed, during the commercial break, "What the heck is Youmi DOING?!" And, when fighting resumed, jumped up and went "WOO!" at the top of my lungs, 'cause, it's a Yuusuke-fight, damnit! And, and, and... Raizen-sama! *swoon* ^_^

Apparently, based on Xeen's not-so-subtle hints, Kurama will do something cool in the next episode. Yay. Kurama's my favorite bishounen in YYH. What, you couldn't tell? He is! Kurama's my favorite bishounen, Raizen-sama is my lord who I am devoted to beyond all belief, and Yuusuke is my... guy... who I want to spar with and party with and hang out with and... stuff... and stuff and junk and stuff... yeah. But I tend to enjoy Yuusuke fights more than Kurama fights just 'cause, um... they're actual fights? Kurama's fights are like chess tournaments and stuff. Still enjoyable, but on a mental level more than a... whatever level I like Yuusuke-fights on. I really do love Kurama, though. It's just that I'm more vocal about Yuusuke and Raizen-sama. Especially Yuusuke lately, since he's now the heir to my lord's kingdom and all.

YYH! Woo! Meaning-in-fighting! That cannot possibly be explained to a non-YYH fan! Woo!

I keep forgetting why I watch this show. Then I watch an episode. And this happens. ^_^

Oh, and, father's day today. Yay. Gave him a chair. Went to a restaurant and he didn't have to pay. Woo. Happy father's day, all!

Pow-pow, smirk! *swoon*

Still bored.

Went driving. Didn't really go anywhere. Considered going to that party, but didn't, on account of I Hate People. Came back. Caught the second half of an old Barbara Streisand movie. And I don't watch Barbara Streisand movies. Am I spelling her name right? Was told that I pick up the accents of people I'm watching on TV. WTF? E-mailed the people I should have e-mailed two weeks ago. Decided not to update CAGE; no one's going to check until Monday, anyway. Page will be up Monday.

Still not tired. Still have a headache. Still bored.

Evidently, Mina Lightstar named a character in one of her fics after Xenia. ...help me out here, I haven't read all her fics. Anyone noticed a Xenia? Or similar sounding name?

You can only read so many fics before they start sounding the same. I'm not even in the mood to read ALHR right now... Hate being bored. It's probably wanderlust. I usually get bored when I've got wanderlust. I haven't left the state since...

...

...Okay, I can't remember, which means it's been too long. Of course, I can't remember what I had for breakfast, either. Did I eat breakfast today...? I left the state on some vacation, anyway... and I saw Escaflowne in the next state over, but the border's so close it might as well be the same state... I should wander. Except I kind of have to work this week. This bites.

Bored enough to debate playing the Sims. Grr.

Waaaah.... I'm so bored... @_@ Hate this...

Mmmm, what to do, what to do... The computer screen's giving me a headache. I hate it when that happens. Did you know that too much coffee can give you a migraine if you're not used to it? (Wish someone had told me that in advance...) And apparently I say 'migraine' weird, because everyone thinks I'm saying 'my grain' and gets all confused. Weird. It should be obvious what I mean by context, shouldn't it? I should be writing e-mails to... um... *counting* ...three different people right now, and I should probably work on some fics too, but... bleagh. Computers and thinking don't really mix right now. (So why am I blogging? 'Cause there's no thought involved, of course!) I could upload the next CAGE page (there wasn't an update this week! I'm sorry!). I finally found my sketchbook again, so I can get back to work on CAGE! But now that I can work on it, I'm in another art slump (doesn't it always happen that way? >.< ).

And I'm not tired, either (normally I go to sleep when I'm bored). Wah...

Migraines bite, you know that?

I watched TV for a little while. Gargoyles was on! I remember that show! It had Macbeth in it. And Puck. Except he was human in this episode. And Xanatos! I like Xanatos, he's rich and self-centered (not in an annoying way, just like he doesn't even think about it, he's so used to it) and plays with funky science experiments and is seen as evil but doesn't actually consider himself of terms of good and evil and... stuff. Yeah. I like that type. (Cough cough Lex cough cough.) And he saved Owen. It made me squeal like a happy fangirl. It's so much fun when the I-am-not-evil-I'm-just-not-good-either types go around saving people. I like Puck better than Owen, though.

Argh, migraine BAD. I've discovered that dark quiet corners are Good Things. But the 'quiet' part is kind of hard to find... I got invited to a party today. But I don't think I'll go. Even though I'm bored. It's a party thrown by someone who doesn't suck as much as most people do, though... but there is that whole I-hate-people thing. Even the ones that don't suck quite so much.

You know, I made an odd discovery recently. I say 'I hate people' so much, I just assumed everyone realized that meant I hate people. But no. Apparently they thought I meant 'I hate people who aren't me, and aren't my family, and aren't my friends, and don't work with me, and... you know. Those people. Out there. Somewhere. That I'll never have to talk to for more than a minute at a time.' This is wrong. When I say 'I hate people,' I mean everybody. Including you, reading this, right now. I hate you. I hate me too. I hate that people exist. It's a very stupid thing to do. Unfortunately, I'm not suicidal. I just think that sentient existence sucks in general.

Did I depress you? Sorry! It's really not something I consider depressing anymore, I just think that way... Um. I think I should shut up now. Except then I'd be bored again... but I already am... but at least my fingers are moving right now, that's something to do. Wahh, boredom sucks!
