    Finally at the optometrist to get new contact lenses. I was well into my last pair.

    Weird. My video player on my tablet shows ads when it's paused, and while watching this anime about a couple who met in high school and meet again ten years later, the ads are for Classmates.com and they keep asking if I wonder where my high school sweetheart is.

    The answer is: no, I don't. Thanks to Facebook, I know, since we're still in touch.

    I liked Psycho Pass. Very dystopian and raises some interesting issues.
    Dubs rarely work for me either, I'd much rather watch it in the original language.
    One of the few that didn't seem half bad is Bleach but that's about it.

    Reminded me of Minority Report; I couldn't tell you what happens in the second half of that film anymore or how it ends, but the basic idea was solid and well done I thought. Not surprised at all to see that was based on a story from one of the Sci-Fi greats Philip K. Dick; that era of writers was just one of the reasons the radio shows Dimension X and X Minus One are still better than most of the scifi done since including television and film.

    Listening to Christmas music, making progress on paper, and otherwise enjoying my daughter's last day of school.

    I love checking things off my to-do list.

    That reminds me, I have made it this far without having to hear even one Christmas song....happy happy joy.
    I may start playing it in 6-7 months when I want to hear it. Nothing goes better with songs about nasty winter than the warm summer months.

    Love that show. I remember some of those back when they first aired but I was bit young to properly appreciate it then.

    The last episode we watched was full of sexual mustache jokes.

    I can only hope to have a 'stache as epic as his.

    Mine tend to look more like this. Never mind the zombie thing (actually Seaquest comes to mind sooner for me), this was the nearest recent self portrait I had handy where I was playing with displacement maps.

    No.

    Just no.

    Your bald pate is sexy.

    Breathe, dude, breathe. You don't need to zombie yourself. Not cool.

    I was just playing with displacement mapping in photoshop and I was the nearest (as in only) volunteer for a head shot to play with. That works rather well on anything involving skin, especially for applying tattoos to people digitally.
    On the hair thing - thank you! I have heard from one or two people that I look "scary" or that I look better with hair on my head; I just can't do it as hair on my scalp bugs me to no end and I so00000 prefer the bald look.

    I'm officially unemployed. Yesterday was my last day working at the call center. Now I'll try my hand at being a housewife. So excited!
