More Gallery Stuff ... and , well, "Stuff"
Wow, I totally fail at the whole title thing, don't I? >.O
I hadn't expected to do another gallery update/addition so soon after my last one, but my Rinkya package arrived this past Sunday, coinciding nicely with the start of my child-free "vacation". (My daughter is off visiting my parents in Texas.) So I figured no time like the present and scanned stuff in. The Rinkya package was pretty small, as I've been trying hard not to be as active with buying things. To round things out, I finally worked up the courage to post a few things I've had for a while but never updated. Well, "worked up the courage" isn't quite right. These are the cels I wrote about several months ago -- the ones I purchased from a former friend who ended up, basically, trying to cheat me out of the money I had paid her. It took about 9 months for the cels to reach me ... and another 7 or so before I could look at them without being angry. The situation still hurts; I don't suppose you ever get over being treated like that by someone you trusted. But the pain has dulled a bit -- at least enough that I can look at the cels now and enjoy them. And I suppose I should feel lucky I got my cels at all; another friend of mine has been waiting for over a year for her stuff from this person.
So, the newest new stuff:
Card Captor Sakura:
Kero-chan
Yukito with Teddy Bear
Yukito, ep. 65
Yukito transformation, ep. 65
Toya Movie Cel
Fushigi Yuugi:
Hotohori
Nightwalker:
Shido Genga
Saiyuki:
Yaone Repro
Weiss Kreuz:
Aya
In other news, I looked up the tracking info for my DVD "swag". It's on schedule to deliver July 5. This sucks in a couple of ways. First, it means no new anime to take with me on our trip. Second, I won't be here to rescue the box from my front step. I'm sure the UPS guy will just drop it there and leave, and our pet sitter doesn't come to check on the cat until after 6. We've had a couple of thefts recently -- nothing major, just bizarre stuff like the squirter thing off my hose and some of our outside lights. I know it has to be kids stealing stuff "just because they can". But I worry a box sitting unattended will be too much of a temptation for them. I hope my DVDs don't go missing.
We are scheduled to leave on July 4. I'm not even sure what time, but I guess I should try to pack tonight. Although I've been looking forward to the trip, I have no desire to pack because I'm sick. I have no idea how it happened -- maybe a total allergy overload that turned into a cold or something. But I feel icky and would rather stay home. Hubby asked last night if we should cancel the trip, but I didn't have the heart to tell him yes. I do not feel up to going, and I fear flying will be a special kind of hell. At the same time, he has really been excited about it, and I couldn't ruin it for him. I'm hoping massive doses of Dayquil and sleeping a lot will go a long way toward helping me to feel better. Bad thing is that you really can't do much for a cold. Just have to let it run its course. Hubby doesn't get this, as he rarely gets sick. And he gives me the distinct feeling that he believes I did this "on purpose" to ruin the trip. Bleh.
One good thing that has come of not feeling well is that, last night, I got to watch a lot of the Bleach episodes I had Tivo'd. Nothing better than lying in bed watching anime with the cat. Hee.

I was really pleased with the Yaone. It was one of those auctions that went on YJ for forever -- literally, as you know. I was always put off by the bad pic and the price, but I'm glad I finally took the chance on it. I felt foolish buying it, but that's OK. I don't feel foolish now.
Well, I do. But not because of the Yaone. Heh.

I´m so sorry to hear you´re not feeling well.
*sends healing vibes*
I hope the vacations help you somehow, tho it sucks to have to move
when all you want is to stay home in bed.
I sucks that you lost a friend with the cels, but in the other
hand maybe that person never was your friend...better that you
don´t have to deal with the person.
It hurts so much to lose a friendship, but eventually you
feel better and meet new people.
*hugs*
Anyway... huge squee from me when I saw the Hotohori-kun cel
it´s gorgeous.
about the box.... can´t you ask your neighbor to keep the box for you?

Thanks so much for the kind wishes, and for taking a look at my new cels. The Hotohori made me sqwee, too, when I saw it. I thought it was so pretty, even though it's an OVA cel. I know most people don't like the OVA cels as much, but I've always liked them because of the soft colors.
Everything worked out OK with the box. Our pet sitter found it on the front step and brought it inside, so everything was safe. YAY! I've already started watching some of the DVDs. (whoop for new anime! =P)
The friendship thing sucks, but I'll get over it eventually. Writing out my feelings helps a lot with that process. Thanks so much for caring. ^.^
