Nobody has asked me yet but I like it so much I’m going to explain it anyway. Basically it is the main character from an anime series I first saw six or seven years ago. I rediscovered it last year. Last semester it was supposed to be played at the college anime club meetings but after the first night it was dropped because so many people disliked it for one reason or another. A few people were seriously freaked out by it and the rest just didn’t like the lack of action in the show.

You can check out the first episode below. It deals heavily with philosophy, computers and the internet, and I think it is an interesting show. The show does have some mature content. I would not recommend it to children or those that are easily upset. Some really weird stuff happens right from the start so consider yourselves warned.

I would really like to write 1000 words before I go to sleep.

I don’t care if it is technically spread over two days because I’m up past midnight. It would be really awesome though to get 1000 words behind me before midnight, but I do not see that as likely.

My family is too much of a distraction to even hope for such progress at this time in the evening. My mom will be around and about, popping in to talk to me or asking me to do stuff until around 9 this evening. My sister is simply an annoyance when she is home. She’s loud and obnoxious and it is pretty much impossible to escape her no matter what room I am in. She is just too damn loud. I won’t be free of her influence until 10:30 or 11 this evening when she goes to bed.

I’m still going to try for it though.

I’m also thinking about trying to go to bed by 3 tonight. This plan will immediately be abandoned if I find out that Izzy has another half night at work. Then I will stay up and keep her company online for a few hours.

Regardless, I will have at least 4 hours to get to 1000 words before I go to sleep.

Wish me luck!

Oh man. I can’t believe that JS was gone. Thank goodness it came back!

I’m Blitz, the same old Blitz whose been on Journalspace for almost six years. I’ve been around on and off but I’ve always kept to myself for the most part.

I’ve always loved Journalspace. The people here are so nice and the community is so close and supportive. I just like that the people here tend to be more mature than other websites of this sort.

Well, this will probably end up being a place mostly for me to rant and ramble about my writing. I write, even if it isn’t as much as I would like. It’s mostly fantasy, though it is a fair mixture of fanfiction and original fiction. I am participating in WriYe this year and my goal for by the end of this year it to have written 300,000 new words. So far I’m running behind but at the moment my days lack structure so I am hoping that things will start to look better once I get a little more organization in my life.
