Niou
So I had a strange moment today.

One of the girls at work's brother recently had a baby.
I heard more in detail today, such as his girlfriend/wife (I don't actually know) is named Sandra. And that they live in Longmont.
Hearing all of this made me think about the fact that two months ago I had met up with my old friend Sandra, who lives somewhere down there in one of those "L" cities, and so I turned to Erica and I asked her what her brother's name was.
We both had this moment where we were sure that maybe I knew her brother and his significant other, but alas, his name was Chris.

So it just makes me wonder now: How's the baby coming chica?

PS: I can't actually figure out how to write a note on Facebook, so I'm posting here since I know it'll cross post.

PPS: My body needs to stop telling me I want a baby. Because I really don't.

Actually, rather than end the post I'll actually talk a little bit about what's been going on with me.
I was trying to find a new job for a little while, but I've more or less decided I need to stick it out at my current job since they are pretty good to me and I need the insurance for a bit longer.
I've been off the depression meds for... a while... since sometime in May, can't remember when I stopped now. I've more or less decided that depression is not my problem, my problem is something about my sleeping pattern/ability.
I frequently wake up in the middle of the night, sometimes as often as 5 or six times. My doctor doesn't think it's sleep apnea but I'm supposed to have a sleep study done anyway to figure out what's wrong.
The problem is that I can't afford a sleep study, even with my insurance. I'm still trying to pay a dental bill from April that's almost $300, and my insurance says that the sleep study will cost me about $400 out of pocket up front.
So yeah... still trying to work that one out.

And otherwise... not much has changed. Yeah.

So I started playing Persona 3: FES in Japanese today.

It is so very a completely different game from Persona 4. Which makes sense, I suppose. I just wasn't exactly prepared for how different it is. Especially the general feel of what's going on. It's a lot darker and less... happy? than P4.

And certain character drive me up a wall already. In fact, I really only like two of the characters so far, and one of those I can't stand to hear him speak because his voice actor is Toriumi Kousuke.
In all honesty I do like Junpei. I think he's entertaining, and dragging him all around town instead of going to see Akihiko was fun.
Speaking on Akihiko... gah!!!! I want to beat him upside the head with sticks!! He is way to eager about the whole damn situation!!!
Yukari I actually really like, I think she's cute and endearing. And I like that she and the main character have this whole... common ground thing going on.
Mitsuru... is not really my type of character. I think I miss Rise. Maybe even Teddie. At least they both have a sense of humor.
And the richijou? He's just kind of creepy. And so's the weird dead (I assume) kid that made me sign the contract.

So yeah. Off to an interesting start with the game, not really sure how I feel about it yet other than I find the concept to be rather interesting.
The more I play though the more I kind of want to play the English release because while I think I understand most of what's going on I think I'm missing some of the controls and such.
Are you even allowed to manually control your party like you are in P4?

Anyway... I think it's time to give my brain a rest.


On an unrelated note, it was a very emotional and crappy week and I'm sad my weekend is over.

I'm trying to get rid of most of my Tenimyu related goods as I'm slowly paying less attention to the fandom and I feel my stuff deserves a better home.
I'm selling photosets, photobooks, Idol DVDs, and a magazine. The listed prices are just general prices, it's more important to me that I get rid of this stuff so it's not laying around anymore.

Photosets: Aoyagi Ruito, Kanesaki Kentarou, KENN, Katou Ryousuke, Wada Masato, TAKUYA, Kamakari Kenta, Shiozawa Hidemasa, Seto Kouji, Baba Tooru, Yagami Ren

Photobooks: Kamakari Kenta
Magazine: Arena 37 Special Vol. 38 #11 featuring the Pure Boys
DVDs: KENN, Kamakari Kenta

I just did my taxes and I am going to be a very happy person in a couple weeks.

Watched Moon Child last night. Hadn't seen it in a very long time, and am now falling in love with Hyde. Couldn't have anything to do with all the L'arc I dumped onto my iPod the other day. >.>

Anyway, I think I'm going to play some more Persona 4, then run to the gym for a work out.

The week is almost over...

Ever know someone really old and crotchety that at one point you find yourself wishing they would just hurry up and die?

There's a woman at my work like that. My email box this morning informed me that she died this weekend.
4th-Feb-2009 12:36 pm - Well damn.

I have a bottle of prozac in my purse.
27th-Jan-2009 10:18 pm - New iPod ftw
Persona 4
I couldn't help it. I've been wanting a new iPod since before my replacement plan expired in September, but I couldn't justify breaking it to try and get a new one back then.
Today I sucked it up and bought a new nano, and am currently dumping music onto it.
Going from 4 gigs to 16 gigs makes me a very happy Jessica.

In other news, Persona 4 has eaten my soul and I &hearts it dearly.

I'm back at home now with all my various presents, feeling a bit better than yesterday.

Thanks to those that commented and such. It helped my mood get better this morning.

Now I'm drowning myself in the shiny that is Sweeney Todd. *____*

My day started out all right. Just before I left work though, I decided to call my mom and tell her that I wanted help bringing in all my stuff when I got to the house.
My mom was in tears. My immediate thought was that Robyn's condition had gotten worse and that she was dying. Turns out that our other dog, the younger, spaztic one was the issue.

By the time I got there, Lilu seemed like she wasn't really there. Like she didn't notice my petting her, or when we picked her up and put her in the back of the van.
My parents had already been to the vet, and the ER in Longmont. They wanted $1200 just to do an IV and run tests.

Once in the van we drove to the hospital in Fort Collins. I watched Lilu take her last few breaths slightly before we even got to I-25. We decided to go up there anyway because we figured Lilu probably died of the same thing Robyn is sick with. (Congestive Heart Failure)

The cardiologist said he thought it was actually something nuerological, but we'd have to pay out the ass to have a full necropsy and all the extra tests run just to even have an idea.

So instead we sit here, wondering how the perfectly healthy dog from yesterday just keeled over today.


Merry Christmas, huh?

I want tacos and it's below freezing outside.
