The Kawaii Menace

There’s a fine line between kawaii and kowai

All this, and Houko Kuwashima, too

… not to mention Romi Paku. Now I’m really impatient to see Kaiba.


Update: Really, really impatient.

Psgels gave Demashitaa! Powerpuff Girls Z the surprisingly high score of 88/100. Last night I was in the mood for something silly and frivolous, so I watched the first few episodes. Well, it’s really silly and frivolous. How silly is it? The girls, Hyper Blssom, Rolling Bubbles and Powered Buttercup, and their arch-enemy, the talking monkey MojoJojo, interrupt their battles for ice cream breaks. Tomboy Buttercup catches a cold from wearing the mahou shoujo short skirt. I posted an excerpt from the first episode on the video weblog that might give you an idea of the show’s flavor. It’s not something I could stand to watch much of at a time, but in small doses it’s agreeably ridiculous.

I also posted a four-minute excerpt from Iblard Jikan, which I mentioned earlier.

I spent the morning at the hospital getting a three-inch screw removed from my ankle. I can now put weight on my left leg, and this afternoon, for the first time this year, I walked. It will take a few weeks to regain full use of the ankle, but at least I can return the wheelchair to the shop now.

If you’re going to show us the screw they removed from your ankle, it should at LEAST be blood-covered!*

You never did say what happened that required to insertion of said screw. I can understand not wanting to talk about it, but I’ve been curious.

*note: not being serious.

The x-rays are here. As for what happened, it’s not much of a story: I slipped on ice on the way to the store last December.
