.: so comes snow after fire :.

Here it's raining, back at my aunt's it's snowing. I cannot believe two weeks ago I was sunbathing in a London park. I'm happy for the rain, since it was needed, but it is still such a weird weather.

I'm also starting to recieve all those blu-rays I pre-ordered during the last few months. On May I'll finally get The Artist, War Horse, Sherlock Holmes - A Game Of Shadows, I love spring. :D



So, it's Tintin, finally, that deserves to be on bluray so much. Can't wait to see all those piratey action scenes on my TV. :D Then we have 12 Songs by Neil Diamond, an album I've been meaning to buy for years, because it contains what is probably my favourite song. Or at least, the one song that if I were to die tomorrow I would spend my last day obsessively listening to. This song. I have no idea why that song sounds so perfect to me, it just does. ^^

XXX-Holic is finally over. I read the last chapter years ago on the net, but it's great to finally have that last volume. Next, The Little Book Of Calm is real! It's still my favourite episode from Black Books, it just makes me cry with laughter. :D



Last but not least, the Magnetic Fields with their new album, because I've listened to 69 Songs so much it's not even funny. ^^

Hurrah for mail that gets here before it was supposed to! It's a package for Tati and me, with the Tsubasa artbooks, Kobato calendar, and Kingdom Hearts piano collection cds. The only downside is the taxes from Japan are really expensive.

Tonight it's Supernatural night, so please no spoilers because I'll be able to watch it only a few hours after it airs. ;)

It's April's Fools day, and that means... it's Clamp day! I definitely need to celebrate doing some Clamp-related activity. Re-reading Tokyo Babylon? Too depressing. I could go and shake all the cherry trees down the road to create a perfect "falling pink petals" setting, but it's been raining since saturday, and I already did that on monday, so... any ideas?

Twitter-ish entry since I should be out of here in 20 minutes and I'm still in my pjs. Bryan Fuller came back to Heroes and all is right with the universe, today is Lost-nesday and I can't freaking wait, I started reading Coraline yesterday before going to bed and it gave me nightmares, and in the afternoon I read all Battle Angel Alita and it was awesome.

The Clamp In Wonderland 2 video is ONLINE! It's absolutely awesome, cute and funny, and I like the song. The Tokyo Babylon part was too short, and no cherry trees, but the Ashura scene was great, and so random. The Tsubasa part is the only one which has nothing to do with the manga story, but that color page, so I'm hoping that final word we can see in a glimpse is Fei Wong Reed's world. *_______* And Clover! Even if it was just a couple of seconds, it was there! \o/ The X part was adorable: Kamui going berserk-mode in the cafeteria was too funny for words. :D

About real life, my aunt arrived yesterday, so I'm feeling really fine and happy. We had dinner together, talked a lot and tonight I could finally sleep well. I had the weirdest dream ever: I was a german partisan, and with a group of other partisans, who were all the mutants from Heroes (yes, Sylar too), we were plotting to kill Hitler in his wonderful villa in the countryside. Sadly my aunt woke me up when Gabriel Gray was telling us about the security system. Sigh. ^^"

Yesterday my FullMetal Alchemist Boxset 1 arrived! Wow, it's wonderful, and I've spent all the morning watching random scenes and getting all teary-eyed at the beauty of this anime. I already ordered the next one, it'll be released on November. ^^

I so much hate Clamp right now. Did anyone else notice that balloon covered with snowflakes?!! First we had debris, in Rg Veda and X, now we have snowflakes. I think I'll have to kill them, because obviously the most important dialogue has to be right there!!!

*bangs head on the wall*

My copy of Clamp Newtype Platinum just arrived! Hurrah! I re-read the little tankobon already four times, it's great! There are also lots of pretty, pretty pictures in the magazine, including a picture of the actors of Tokyo Babylon 1999 standing next to Seishirou and Subaru which made me giggle. XD

Does anyone else have problems with livejournal? It's incredibly slow, and it doesn't open some pages... I'll try again this evening...

Looking Out My Back Door

Just got home from Illinois, lock the front door, oh boy!
Got to sit down, take a rest on the porch.
Imagination sets in, pretty soon I'm singing,
Doo, doo, doo, Looking out my back door.

There's a giant doing cartwheels,
A statue wearing high heels.
Look at all the happy creatures dancing on the lawn.
A dinosaur Victrola listening to Buck Owens.
Doo, doo, doo, Looking out my back door.

Tambourines and elephants are playing in the band.
Won't you take a ride on the flying spoon?
Doo, doo doo.
Wond'rous apparition provided by magician.
Doo, doo, doo, Looking out my back door.

Tambourines and elephants are playing in the band.
Won't you take a ride on the flying spoon?
Doo, doo doo.
Bother me tomorrow, today, I'll buy no sorrows.
Doo, doo, doo, Looking out my back door.

Forward troubles Illinois, lock the front door, oh boy!
Look at all the happy creatures dancing on the lawn.
Bother me tomorrow, today, I'll buy no sorrows.
Doo, doo, doo, Looking out my back door.

My, I love holidays! I just listen to music and read books all day through! *_________* Next week I'll have to see the lawyer and go to the dentist again, but now I just want to have fun. I re-read my X - Infinity (read = drool over pictures), and noticed that Seishirou's outfit clearly quotes Chow Yun Fat's in A Better Tomorrow. I wonder how I didn't notice that before, it's pretty obvious. O_________o

EDIT: That new XXX-Holic ending is GREAT! Both song and animation! *_______________* I have to make some icons out of it! ^^
