Weekend

[oyceter]

Note to self: stop buying yarn.

I was too lazy to go to the farmers' market today, even though I woke up in time, so no peas for me =(. Thankfully, I still have enough fruit from last week for all of this week, even though I'm sad that I'll miss next week's market as well. But! I will miss it because I will be visiting rachelmanija in LA, which is extremely exciting!

Other than that, not much was done. I sat in bookstores and read manga, nearly caught up on all my book-blogging, and started a new knitting project. I'm not techinically done with my other one yet (my current rule is three at a time), but I'm done with most fo the knitting stuff. I have to seam before I can pick up stitches for the collar and the sleeves, so really... it's obviously not going to be done for quite some time!

In other news, one more month till my birthday! Aka, one more month until I finally have the excuse and the money to buy myself my much-beloved, much-longed-for pink KitchenAid stand mixer! Whoo!

Sadly, despite making three separate bookstore trips over the weekend, no one seems to have Naruto 9 or Bleach 8. Grrrrr. I want my fix, damnit. But I did manage to get my hands on Death Note 6 and Fushigi Yuugi: Genbu Kaiden 4. Amazingly, Watase is not putting in the standard female rival that I hate so much, although there have already been two gratuitous nude scenes. Ahhhh, such crack.

My allergies continue to torment, and my cold thankfully seems to have retreated, though I can still feel it somewhat in the back of my throat.

"Naruto" is widely available in scanlations, if you're willing to turn to those temporarily to stave off cravings. :D And "Genbu Kaiden" is fabulous! I wish the original series could have been as well-done, since I liked many of those characters a lot.

You should come to Atlanta sometime and stalk my farmer's market!

Naruto scans

I seem to have run through the scans available on Naruto Chuushin, which go up to chapter 305 (aka "Look who's back, look who's back, look who's back!") Is that as far as the series is out, or is there more? Where would I find more?

Try this (http://www.stoptazmo.com/naruto/).

I do have a lot of Naruto scanlations, but, uh, I am lazy and like reading it in book form when I can. I tend to skip over a lot when I read scanlations.

I really like Genbu Kaiden so far, and I hope Watase continues to not have female rivalry!

Also, I totally want to stalk your farmers' market! Wah!

I'll take you to my farmer's market to make up for it. If we go to the Sunday Santa Monica one rather than mu usual Tuesday Culver City ne, we can cook peas if they have any.

If you still can't find Naruto 9 or Bleach 8 and don't want to read scans, I have them both. However, you will have to read scans if you want to read past Naruto 10 or Bleach 14, because that's as far as they've been released.

I am charmed by Fushigi Yuugi: Genbu Kaiden. Including the totally gratuitous nudity. Also, I can't wait for Absolute Boyfriend 2.

Yaaaay!!! Peas!!

I am going to read so much manga at your place ^_^.

I've been hunting Absolute Boyfriend 2 just because of the whole "naked guy in a box" thing. Also... cute shy guy with glasses!
