I'm like the ringmaster, I call the shots....

1)Welcome to any new people! *waves* Just letting you know, a sad fact of my lj is I have no net access when at home. So most of my lj-ing is done on breaks at work until the fall when I go back to college….then I mess around on lj when I should be studying.

2) That said, I’ll actually be disappearing to go to the beach this weekend around 3:30 so I’ll have to get to ya’ll better next week.

3) I’m sorry but I’m not really upset about Michael Jackson’s death. I mean, it feels weird that he’s dead since he’s always been there, but that’s about it for me.

4)I really wanna see Transformers, but my cousin already saw it, my brother and I don’t get along well alone for long periods, and my parents adamantly refuse to ever watch anything related to TF. (They find anime dumb in general & since TF was originally an anime they saw and thought was stupid…..). I think I can convince them to go with me to Ice Age 3 &/or Public Enemies.

5)No particularly hilarious family stories this week.(new people Only that WT referred to himself over the phone to someone as “Wm., the handsome attorney”….though he’s been retired for YEARS. Lol.

6)I’m still depressed about my puppy. And my Dad and brother are still pushing for a new puppy. I’m still kinda meh about it, but I’m sure if we get a new puppy I’ll love it. *has no resistance for dogs….except chihuahuas* Listening to suggested names, good and insane, is hilarious. My favorites so far are Sebastian(that was mine), Artemis Prime(mom), Dingleberry(Tay), Obama(lol). We’ve suggested more appropriate less scaring to the dog names as well. But names like Max, Ben(so I could call it Benji), Sam, etc just don’t have the same ring to them. :D
Note: We haven’t even got a puppy yet.
6a) I managed to go on a walk in the woods(my baby’s fav activity) yesterday and not cry. Though walks aren’t as fun w/o him chasing deer.

Have a great weekend flist!

Hi. *waves*

lol. The welcome was actually directed towards ppl I recently met in a friending meme, but it applies to you as well.

And I was joking about Obama, the the horror on my gma's face when I told her would be awesome.

6a)Thanks!

I hope the chiwawa was a hilarious typo...but if not, it's spelled chihuahua (I know cause I'm Mexican =P).

It's kind of sad that your parents are so close minded when it comes to anime, my dad really loves Rurouni Kenshin and Ranma 1/2, while my mom likes Cardcaptor Sakura.

I knew it had "u"s but I couldn't remember how to spell it and I was in a hurry. *will fix*

I think I could possibly get them to open up to Cowboy Bebop. And I'll bet mom would enjoy Howl's Moving Castle.

[misaoshinomori.livejournal.com]

Cowboy Bebop is the perfect choice I would say, and anything by Studio Ghibli/Hayao Miyazaki.

Unfortunately I haven't been able to show either one to my parents since they only speak Spanish. Although I was lucky enough that "Princess Mononoke" was Spanish dubbed in Mexico for a while and my dad loved it.

I have a chihuahua, let me tell you, they are annoying creatures.

I grew up listening to MJ, so I'm a bit upset, but at the same time, its just another celebrity, and I hate them all..

have a great weekend :)

3) It came as a shock to me, but I'm not upset either. I honor him for his earlier influence on everyone's childhood but he was a very disturbed man and had some pretty bad demons. I just hope he managed to find some peace at the end.

4) Dammit, if I have to come get you myself, YOU WILL SEE TRANSFORMERS 2. That movie is epic. Epic WIN. *nods determinedly*

[batmarg.livejournal.com]

That was my line of thought. Though something like Spirited Away may be too odd to start them on. I think HMC is the best Miyazaki to start them on.

[batmarg.livejournal.com]

All the ones I've met have been. And Dad dispises them.

lol.

Thanks. It was fun.

3)Same for me.

4)You may have to. There's no way I can just run off and see it w/o my brother, but he acts like such a brat anytime we go alone somewhere. He's 18, you'd think he could manage to not like an idiot for a couple hours. :/ I may just have to wait till it's on dvd. :(

[kyoko-minamino.livejournal.com]

4) Screw that. Where do you live? Before I have to go back to Athens, I am kidnapping you (without your brother) and we are going to see that movie. *determined nod* There is no way you are waiting until it comes out on DVD--that's just criminal.

4)I live in the middle of nowhere between to bumfuck-nowhere towns.
...though if it's still playing by the time I go back to school.....hmmm....maybe I can convince IM to see it.
