The mysterious “Hack Me!!” and “Install Procedure” signs I’ve mentioned before made another appearance in Tiger & Bunny.

I’ve finally (sorry) sent your K-on goods but it seems to be stuck
at a post office in LA. Are you away from your home now?

Nonchan from Studio Neko-Han-Ten was able to send a prize I had won in another of his contests (March 7 & May 8 Entries).

Apparently, no one was able to receive the package when it was delivered on July 19, which I discovered by looking at the tracking number (nonchan was smart enough to send me this number). Unfortuantely, I couldn’t find any notices about a failed delivery, and since it was Sunday I had to wait until Monday.

Now, this wouldn’t have been much of a concern, except there’s a policy for USPS to return packages to sender if they’re unclaimed for 5 days. I hoped that they didn’t count the day it arrived. I couldn’t verify it over the phone since no one was answering the phones on a Sunday.

I then remembered that my Jury Duty starts Monday! How would I be able to get it in time?! I checked online to see the reporting instructions and, luckily, I didn’t have to report to the courthouse on Monday! Yay! Now, I just had to wait until Monday morning to get the package before it went back to Japan.

I went to the post office on Monday as soon as it opened, and I got the package in time. It came with a CD, pamphlet, and 2 clear files. =D

Thanks again, nonchan!

I was reading Understanding Power: The Indespensible Chomsky Edited by Peter R. Mitchell and John Schoeffel at the time. I need to read more books…

Note to Self: Compare the development of GOTT and GTO in Kiddy Grade and Kiddy GiRL -AND to the development of GATT and WTO.

Could there possibly be a better way to celebrate?!

Maybe eating pumpkin pie, but I don’t have any, so you’ll have to settle for these.

I have a couple more to post, but I’ll do that later.

Maybe my blog can influence Japan!!!

(Thanks to TheMysteriousBox for the link.)

I’m sure other people have recognized it, but no one actually commented on it before. It was pretty cool.

I guess biting people’s ears is a typical sign of affection in Japan. A similar behavior was observed in an earlier post.

Right from the start, it is clear that there is something surreal going on here:

My moetic life. Kiss x Sis is definitely a moetica. Or moerotica. I am a moet, writing a moem. Moetry. Moefy everything I can see, hear, smell, taste, touch, and think. Moefication. Moetalica. Moetalia. Moetan. Moeticism. Moe, moe, kyun!

It’s an interesting read, but rather lengthy. so you might want to take it a little at a time.

Thanks again to nonchan!
