Heard the News!

Congratulations Matt & Alice. Raffy and I hope you have many happy years together!

If this was on any other weekend I would have flown down to be there. But we will be moving into our new apartment. The best thing I can give is to tell you that now you will be one. There will be no more thinking of yourselves as separate individuals. It is a beautiful thing, and although your lives as single people is over, you will come into a new being as husband and wife. I wish you both many blessings and I wanted to give you this tribute!

I saw Twilight last Friday with my gal pals. We went out to the Drafthouse, I had a burger and drooled over the cast. The only casting problem I had was Esme - she does not seem quite right for the part. I don't like her - but the rest of the characters were spot 0n. Jacob was cute - knowing he was shark boy only made it cuter. I really liked it, and I want to take Raffy to see it because we were making comments all through the movie, so I didn't get to see it undisturbed. And I want to know what Raffy thinks about it too!

I took a break from packing to give a little tribute to Mr. & Mrs. Matt. I don't know his last name, but we keep that off of here anyway! :D

You should Rent

The best thing to do is just try to rent, or share with friends. And if you cannot afford anything for a couple years, it's okay, because you will make money someday. Raffy was sad at first - he was a huge collector before we got married. But now, he doesn't miss it because when he graduates, he wants to buy entire series at a time instead of one release after another. And I support that. Maybe we can send a package of manga or anime for you to watch. I will make a list of what we have, and you let us know.

Chrono Crusade belongs to a friend of Raffy, unfortunatly, and Fullmetal Alchemist was something we rented. Those were great! We're just waiting for next year. I would like those series, I could watch them over and over.

I need to finish the Inuyasha DVDs. I had a hard time going back to them because it was the same thing over and over again. It's been enough time, and I remember that you didn't get to finish them either. I will definately send those when I have a chance to watch them.

Two weeks. I can't wait. I'm anxious to leave this place and be closer to everything. It's going to be like when I lived in Tempe. I was very happy with the location there, and this is even better. Don't worry - I'll be updating everyone with my new address.

November Update

The packing is almost done. We're moving in 2 weeks. I don't know if I will have time to blog, but I will think of you guys while we're settling the new place.

Raffy twisted his ankle yesterday. I've been taking care of him. :) He's had to crutch his way around school today and he is very tired. I remember when I busted my ankle several times. It's hard, but he should be better by Monday.

We are going to hire movers to take our stuff. We don't have much, and we don't want to hurt ourselves with the move. Plus we have to clean both apartments. I don't want to worry, and Raffy's friends are all busy due to the holiday. I'd rather have professionals anyway - I know they have the equipment to do it quick and easy.

One of Raffy's college friends lent us Chrono Crusade. It was very good. It kinda reminded me of a mix between Cowboy Bebop and Fullmetal Alchemist. At first I wasn't sure about it, but it had a very good storyline, and even tied historical events to the characters and the situations they are in. It's a religious type anime, and has alot to do with Heaven and Hell in the Catholic church, but with the eastern philosophies of balance and cycles of time. It was still cool - even though they had a different perspective of western religion. Sometimes a new perspective is interesting, and it's fantasy anyway.

I highly reccomend it!

So now, I'm watching Kitchen Nightmares. I love that show. Mexican restaurant from hell... reminds me of a place I used to live near in Tempe.
