Some Las Vegas pictures -- my mother has the rest, including the trip to Madam Tussaud's where we posed with the wax figures. But for now,
[link]So, the entire Monty Python's Flying Circus was made available via Netflix streaming sometime ago. I'd been a Python fan before, though entirely based on their Holy Grail and Meaning of Life films, and that's just sad. So I'm now getting the full Python experience. And I do believe I have a weird retro crush on all of them. Yes, on outlandish, nonsensical, and nerdy British men getting their kicks forty years ago. Don't judge me. Anyone else into the Pythons? Just curious if you have favorites! I honestly can't pick just one.
I don't know why, but I find Chictopia.com addictive. Just surfing through people posting pictures of themselves being all fashionable. Lots of leggings, I have to tell you. And it's sometimes disconcerting what some people consider "chic". Even blatant '80s regurgitation is hugely popular -- I can't tell you how many times I've come across girls wearing acid wash jeans and shoulder-padded jackets, it's insane! But I have found a few people who walk to their own beat and don't seem to follow trends in the least. I'm especially amazed by the Goodwill-ers -- they put together the most amazing outfits for less than $20 total, head to toe!
So like everyone, I totally flipped out at the latest Naruto chapter. Though, the Sharingan is starting to get old. It's pretty much devalued itself to the level of freckles. ANYWAY, is anyone else keeping up with Bleach? Because it's getting pretty epic now!
Oh! Almost forgot! Has anyone watched the movie "Aragami"?
[link] It's Japanese, came out in 2003 I believe. Ian came home with it one day, and holy crap is it fantastic! It's about a gravely-wounded samurai who is patched up and challenged to a battle by a world-weary battle god who has shut himself up in a temple. For like 95% of the movie, it's just these two dudes bantering and/or fighting. It's brilliant.
After watching the movie though, it occured to me that these actors remind of certain Naruto characters (I'm sure this is not a good sign of my Narutardedness).

Takao Osawa, dude on the left who plays the samurai, looks very similar to my mental image of a fleshed out Shikamaru.

Masayo Kato, dude on the right, is the Aragami, and acts like a cocky know-it-all antisocial competitive Uchiha. He doesn't really look like how I pictured Sasuke, but he can sure pull the face.

That second one is SO James Dean-ish. Okay, so he looked more Sasuke-like when he was younger.

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!
