Today I doodled, intentionally! It was quite relaxing. I am trying not to put too much expectation on myself, but I did wake up with some words to a poem in my head and wanting to become a spreadsheet designer. I wish I knew exactly what inspired me to write …. like x=y2. Then I realized, just like with almost everything else, maybe there is no pattern, no formula. That doesn’t mean I’m gonna stop looking cause maybe there is. It’s weird – I am always looking for patterns.
I ate ice cream (horrid! I can see imaginary people looking down their noses at me as I bow my head in shame.) but I made another batch of shiojake (Bon! Bon! Now they are clapping.) I also bought myself an aburi grill – Should arrive this Wednesday I will try cooking the salmon on it. I’m excited!!! I am not sharing all my shiojake with these guys this time, they have other things to eat.
There is a new anthology series on Prime, Them – the first season is about a Black family moving into a White LA neighbourhood in 1950’s America. I started the first episode, but I am not looking forward to watching it. Food Wars on Netflix is an interesting Anime – It’s like a cooking show and a cheesy porn flick had a baby that smells great but looks like something out of your worstest nightmare. You just don’t know what to do with the damn thing, but you know, as sure as hell exists on Earth, you do not want to bring it home; Undoubtedly, the baby will grow up with some indeedily strange predilections. Your remaining hospital nights are spend dreamscheaming on how to sneak out of the hospital, change your identity and disappear. If only someone would snatch you away. If only there were witness protection programs for occasions such as these …
I don’t want to see massive boobs bouncing in my face, or hear people making orgasmic noises when they eat or see groins on fire. BUT I am curious to know what happens to our protagonist! Do they make anime for adult women that is not romancy? So sexist! If I can find one to hold my interest it will be helpful with learning Japanese. I can recognize some short phrases, greetings and single words but I can’t follow conversations yet. And BTW I am having a hard time adjusting to katakana – “Wait! What! Can I see that again please! For like ten minutes!” It’s taking way longer for me to remember the characters.
