Yeah, so do I; her interpretation of Balkus was pretty spot-on, I think.

It's almost 10; I only intended to take a short nap, and here I end up sleeping for nearly four hours. I guess I might have needed it, though.

There was a dragonfly in the living room a few minutes ago. Mom caught the thing and shooed it out, but still... Dragonfly in the house, weird.

I just read the new chapter of Team 8... I have to say, I really wasn't expecting that. Hell of a thing to happen; necessary considering what was going on in the story, but... wow.

I'm probably going to be heading off to bed soon, so goodnight everyone.

heh heh, good night

so a dragonfly?

coolio. we don't get many around here.

i'd have to go to the field near the woods to see one.

It was kind of tiny, and it didn't look anything like the ones I've seen pictures of, but Mom said it was a dragonfly, and she saw it more closely than I did.

I'm still wondering how it managed to get inside...

On another note, I've done my once-in-a-blue-moon clothes shopping at J.C. Penny; got a few cool new outfits out of the trip, and - more importantly - I got some new pants. I like my new pants.

Maito Gai amuses me on several levels; I don't know much about the one in canon, but Team 8's Gai is a real character.

do you have a link?

I love gai.

i especially love his nice guy pose.

Here it is!

It's one of the best Naruto fanfics I've read in a long time.

oh, i had a look. it's a crying shame even fanfiction writers can succumb to retarded non-translation syndrome.

does she not realise that sandaime is simply 'the third'. it's a fairly innocuous term.

Yeah, those parts can get a bit tiresome sometimes, but they're pretty much the only false notes I've come across in the fic. One of the other Naruto 'fics I have to reccomend is The Truth Decays. It's got some fun Gai-moments in it, too.

Chapter 4, page 6. Masaki's getting worried.

Ah, nostalgia... I've just started reading my forum-journal over from page 1; which I do sometimes when the mood strikes me. I almost can't believe I've typed up 23 pages of this already. Where does the time go?

I have a good portion of a page dedicated to what might be called "my thoughts on meat"; though page 2 is basically food-themed, so I guess it fits.

Page 4 seems to be mostly weather-related stuff; stuff from back when it was winter. At least it's not raining like it was back then.

Page 8: art, Max Factory figure issues, plush toast, and tuna-fish casserole.

I guess the journal's title really fits.

Page 11 is where the comic starts showing up. Which is cool, since I've gotten so many pages of it.

Page 18 was when I got my PS2. I love my PS2.

this is my 24th page, and my 2,833rd post. I guess I've been around awhile.

ha ha, wow, it has been rather interesting hasn't it

hey kenji, you're a pillar of the community ^^/

Not quite as much as you and Toku, but yeah. I guess I am.

It's funny to think that I started this all the way back when I hadn't yet started The Birth of Guyver V, and here I am just starting to get done with the sequel.

After a quick check of my profile, I've found that - this being by 700th post here - I have 300 more posts in the Guyver section than I have in here. I guess we know where my focus lies.
