It's Hot in herrrrre
I got bitten at taiko practice yesterday, not once, not twice, but like 8 times.
And now my legs look tumor-ridden, these bites have gotten so HUGE. I had to walk outside like this today. Hope the cortisone helps.
Watch Star Trek, it's the shit, foreal. Diversity win! (not only racially, but Spock is a HAPA FRIEND!) There could be more women, though. That was a serious thought mid-movie.
Watching Danny DeVito on Inside the Actors Studio. Brilliant.
Lolcat of the day.

Pics!
Since I never post pics, here are some randoms.
I really never go to the beach on my own, but with Kelsey around we had plenty of tanning and bonding time. I'm a nice few shades darker because of it. Good times.
From concert day! The month of April, during the concert experience, was the most stressful, tiring, and still great taiko-related month I have ever had to go through. The concert is really the reason I got so sick, but I think it was worth it. I'm glad though, these things only happen once a year. I can see it's FOR A REASON. Anyway here, with Courtney, Kelsey and Cara. Wonderful.
The rest of the taiko posse: roomie Maki, Greg, and Emi, celebrating my birthday, belatedly, at D&Bs. It was seriously the most fun Monday night ever. Lots of playing and laughing and eating and drinking. We won so many tickets that night!! Okay. One last one.
So a la Scott Chan, hahahaha a drawing. But it's not community or thought related at all. This is from a book Megumi gave me called "Do You Doodle?" and it is seriously the best invention ever. After a stressful day I can come home and draw random stuff to prompts like "Decorate the room for a party" or "There was an old lady who swallowed a..." and there are pictures like the above one to help set the stage.
Okay so now I remember why I never post pictures. It takes so. damn. long.
Sleep time!

Loopies
Spent the afternoon reading other people's love letters whilst sick in bed.
Or, well, I wish that were completely true. Make that - had to drag my sick butt to work today, go help out with a taiko thing, and then walk my light headed self back home for a good mile.
And in between I read those love letters, and now I'm home in bed, finally, to try and get better before the weekend.
I got this "Other People's Love Letters: 150 Letters You Were Never Meant to See" book as a birthday gift from a girlfriend. Enjoying it thorougly, though it reminds me of every relationship I've been in.
I guess love themes are the same. The love, the hate, the guilt.
I've had the kind where you feel bad for treating the other person badly, but you really just didn't know how to say "no" and be completely honest with the other person and yourself. Or the one where you hate the other person for not trying enough. Or the one you always had to support and encourage because he didn't feel confident enough about himself, like ever. Or the one you could just never forget no matter how hard you've tried.
I've stayed angry for so long at my last relationship victim, when little by little, I guess as I grow, I realize I was probably just as much at fault as he was. So despite all the love and all the anger, I guess I'm really just sorry for everything. It's just easier to blame the other person when you've been through so much hurt.
It's been a while since I've been sick like this, and even though it sucks, I feel like I get sick when my body really just needs a break. So times like this I just feel relieved. It's exactly the excuse I need to stay in bed and sleep for hours on end without feeling too badly about it. As long as I don't get a fever I won't worry about swine flu.
Still, I try and wash my hands before touching people or people's things.
Back to my letters.

Care for a Quickie?
- THE CONCERT IS DONE!! It was great and friends came and I was so happy. I got so many leis the rest of the team thought I was popular. Not popular, just lucky. Also super unbelievably exhausted, even after the day after (today). But at least the taiko insanity is briefly done. I am so happy I could sleep for the next week. Straight.
- My birthday was the shit. That last post sounded unbelievably self-centered but I did it in a hurry and I was really happy.
- I think I need to change blogs. I don't like that I have to be on a different account just to update my blog, because sometimes I do want to chat and update at the same time. I think the fact that I have to sign out of my regular account just to update deters me from updating more often.
- Just saw Maggie Gyllenhaal's Secretary movie, and it is the shit. Expect a lot of unconventional sexual themes, but I think that's what makes the flick so wonderful.
- Kelsey is leaving. Not only is she leaving, she's leaving me. But she's getting a tattoo first so I'm going to wake up early just to go with her. While she's doing that, I might as well update my own ear piercings. Add a few here and there, you know, that sort of thing.
- I had a revelation that I may be single for the rest of my life. By choice. And by Aya's inspirational comment, just adopt someday? Just a quick thought. Like all of these bullet points.
- Did I already mention Kelsey's leaving? Makes me sad. Ah well. Life goes on.
- I miss LA! In kind of a homesick way, but then not so much. It's just like, not being used to having been away for so long.
