I'm such a Yoko Kanno fangirl, haha.

KYAAAA MACROSS FRONTIER OST 2 IS OUT!

It's almost 3 AM and I really should be going to sleep, but who can sleep when there is new Yoko Kanno music to listen to? Okay, plenty of people I'm sure, but I'm not among them. Listening to it now and I'm quite happy to put it mildly. :D

Man, I was going to finish Natsume Yuujinchou today but first we went to Yuba City to go shopping (ew, Yuba City) and then KK came over and we chattered excitedly about cosplay and lots of other anime-related things for a few hours. I suppose I'll finish it tomorrow instead. :D

I wasn't going to make any new costumes next year because mascot costumes are so expensive to make (usually anywhere from $200 to $450 each) and I have to save for Japan, but I really want to do an Umbreon mascot costume. Hmmm, it won't be too expensive because it's only two colors of fur~ I might just do that. I've been wanting to do a mascot-style Pokémon costume for quite a while now and just thinking about making an Umbreon makes me excited.

Okay, now back to extreme happiness for my ears. *Worships Yoko Kanno happily*

Sometimes I wish I had more practice with drawing people. ;^; I'm extremely comfortable with drawing animals because I've been drawing them since I was little--I understand how their skeletal structure and musculature works, and how their bodies balance. With people it's...not that different, but the whole bipedal thing makes it confusing for me, haha. I also have a lot of trouble with face shape for some strange reason. I should practice people more, but because it's frustrating I don't usually want to and when I do I get annoyed. Trying to draw Ranka right now--we'll see how it goes. ^^; And here I want to do character designs for my NaNoWriMo characters (both this year and last)~

Dad, Ryan, and I watched Iron Man today. Am I the only one who wasn't all that impressed? I don't know, I suppose it just wasn't my type of movie, but to me it felt rather...like an average action film? I don't get why the critics were so amazed by it. No offense to anyone who loved it, and you guys seem to be in the vast majority anyway, but I just don't get the big deal about it. I guess I just have to stick to my complex artsy movies.

I have packaging and shipping to do tomorrow! And selling, too, whether my packages arrive or not. (Of course, I'd prefer they do arrive, but we'll see.) I wish Dragonite would just come already. It's been about two or three months of mishaps getting to me and he was supposed to be here last Thursday and...he isn't. ;___; DRAGONIIIIITE PLEASE ARRIVE? PLEASE? I WANT TO HUG YOU!

My sleeping schedule is so, so very messed-up. I've been going to bed anywhere between 2 and 5 AM and waking up anywhere between 2 and 4 PM. D: That's a lot of sleep, and on such a strange schedule.
