Yay, another Miyazaki fan! (There are such a lot of us, heh.)

My next assignment post should be up soon.

I’m glad you’ve decided to join us again. I feel the same way. I’ll take the center any day.
BTW, Hayao Miyazaki rocks! Looking forward to your next “assignment” post.

Yay, Auria!

Mine is a bit sparsely furnished, but otherwise fairly cozy. A friend of mine helped me shop for things, and hopefully come this summer we’ll go shopping again and fill out the rest. :)

I also bought my home last year. Is your home furnished? Mine is completely empty!

I hate to shop.

Francis, good wishes to you, too. In fact, good wishes to everyone!

Miyazaki is a wonderful storyteller, isn’t he? I never quite realized it until just now, for some reason. Now I have an excuse to go watch his stuff again. *rubs hands* Even Sherlock Hound.

I find the Nausicaa.net’s Hayao Miyazaki Web a most useful resource.

Caryn—yeah, I had to laugh at myself too. Pinging is quite, quite efficient these days!

How funny–I’ve done exactly the same thing. I’ll work on a post, finally put it up, and then return later to take it down because I’m convinced that it’s horrible–only to realize that it’s already been pinged everywhere.

I’ve actually been a here-and-now person all my life, not that I’ve had anything particularly hard about my past to keep me from dwelling in it. A few nasty bumps, but mostly ok years.

I have a general sense of something pretty exciting happening in the future, but no concrete reason to believe so. Hope is a wonderful thing. Anyway, I too wish you many improving years.

On a side note, I’ve seen several Miyazaki films (most recently Porco Rosso) and plan to do some more exploring via NetFlix.

Hi Caryn, thanks for the well wishes. Many good wishes to your coming years also.

I didn’t want to make this post (and actually pulled it briefly before realizing it had already pinged, um, everywhere, which made me put it back up).

But it was a way of trying to lay some issues to rest so I can do the weekend assignments again.

I’m really sorry to hear that you’ve had such a difficult time of it. I hope that things continue to get better for you.

Here, here. With plenty of soy milk, cookies, Tension Tamer, and Hayao Miyazaki.
