Got back from
Animazement around 1 AM.
I think I managed to come up with the single best thing I've ever said at a con:
"Subaru-kun, tell your grandmother to stop calling me."
Full con report later, when my blood sugar level is a little higher. :D

@_@ The good news just keeps comin'.
So first I found out that
Pioneer, which has XTV, picked up its very first live-action title,
Onmyouji. (Yeah, that movie. The one about Abeno Seimei.) I've been wanting to see that since I heard about it (that's about a year, now), so... YAY.
Then I find out that I got the job at the toy store.
Once I get over my shock, I'll probably start screaming "RAWK" at the top of my lungs...

Also I find it funny that the man whose "side" of
onmyoujitsu embodies the feminine/submissive/nurturing principle is the big scary sexually dominant person in his relationship. XD

So, in order to get my thematic-elements mojo going for the Big Writings What I'm Pouncing On (Ananda 3/4/5; TR11; That Article I Honestly Haven't Forgotten About, MIKI-KUN), I went looking for stuff about the specific principles embodied by yin and yang.
Imagine my surprise when I realised that yin, the darker half, is described as
"the one who surrenders" (as opposed to yang being
"the one who resists").
Imagine my rapid blinking when I realised that this fits Seishirou's attitude towards his own in-canon death.
I mean, the guy knows he's going to be killed in a very particular way by a very particular person. He doesn't fight it. In fact, he pretty much engineers events at Rainbow Bridge to make sure the counterspell goes off.
I do have to wonder why, though--despite his element being one of acceptance and submission--he surrendered to a death that (as far as we know)
was not strictly necessary.
[/things everyone else who's read X probably already knows by now]

Didn't get to see
Reloaded last night (the woman who sold me what I thought was a ticket for Friday gave me one for Thursday instead... grrrr), but the more I think about it, the more I think the Wachowskis gave Hugo Weaving a very short and very specific list of anime characters to emulate.
I mean, the guy's got a teeny bit of Vincent-from-the-Cowboy-Bebop-movie in him... but he's got a huge amount of Seishirou.
Devious EvilGenki Seishirou.
Slashy Devious EvilGenki Seishirou.
Now, anyone who knows me knows that the idea of Matrixslash makes me want to kill myself with a spatula. But damn, I kept wanting to tack "Subaru-kun" onto the end of all of Agent Smith's lines. It was hard enough not to go "Sakurazukamori desu!" when he started
sticking his hand through people's chests, but when he started talking about how he was CONNECTED by FATE to Neo...
My brain. I can't move my braaaain. @_@

Five-second spoiler-free summary of
Matrix Reloaded.

And now, all of a sudden, "good things come to those who wait" has just gone ker-flump straight down on my head.
For one thing, I'm going to see
Reloaded in two hours.
For another, I'm going to see it with my little sister tomorrow, because I love her and want to hang out.
And by this time tomorrow, I may be able to quit this job to be a toy/art-store employee, speak French to the manager, and play with the Kung Fu Hamsters. XD~

Dear Mother Nature,
WTF is up with the constant rain and thunder? Do you, like, need some Pepto-Bismol or something?
love,
Lisa
In other news, I have a postcard of the night view of Sunshine 60, and I wish this cold would go away before I end up experiencing Nirvana through the magic of NyQuil.

XD Look what you made me do.
(No, really, look. It's on my ficblog. Damn you, mon amour!)

Grapefruit juice, you are the god of my idolatry.
Gotta order my tickets for
Reloaded soon. And then watch Utena the day before and go to the movie wearing my Rose Signet, just to make the experence extra-trippy. XD
And now, we do the Freaking Out About Animazement Dance.
