I have finished my Chobits re-read and wow, I love the series. It's so nice to remember what happens in it again XD

HOWEVER, I must say I could have done with Zima and Gita and their whole storyline. I think it just detracted from what was going on with Hideki and Chi and yeah...they were really superfluous.

But I still love it.

There are a few more series I have that I'd like to re-read. I've been thinking of re-reading xxxHolic up to vol 11. And also I want to re-read Ceres, now that I finally have vol 1 & 2 back (even if poor 1 got attacked by Sansa, silly puppy). But those are both significantly longer than Chobits, so it might take awhile.

Plus I have new manga coming from Chapters that hopefully will get here tomorrow (it was in Mississauga on Friday...yay for being near where Chapters orders come from!). It includes Tsubasa vol 5 (I've decided to continue with that series at least until 6, because Kate says there is a more continuous storyline and so basically this arc will be the make or break point for me, because I'm still not loving the series), Vampire Knight vol 1 (which I've at least mostly read, but would like to re-read in celebration of the anime), Sugar Sugar Rune vol 3, and Gunslinger Girl vol 6, and Welcome to the NHK! vol 6 (which means I will be caught up with the English release for those last two). Oh, and Jes was sending me ES vol...whatever that latest one is, which means I'll be caught up with it too.

I like being caught up with the English release, because it makes me feel like I'm not missing anything and also it means that I can't go out and buy a bazillion books from one series all at once. Currently I have all the released volumes for xxxHolic, Ouran Host Club, Genbu Kaiden, and Sand Chronicles.

Of course, I also have a ton of series that I am significantly behind with. It's actually fun though, strategically planning what to buy next. God help me though if I do fall for Tsubasa now, since last I checked there were 16 volumes released and I'm only at 5.

A MOST HORRIBLE EVENT HAS HAPPENED!

Okay, maybe not that horrible, but it isn't great either. I have to work tonight, because Biatha convinced me to take her shift, because she needs to get some stuff before she goes back to Zimbabwe next week. So that means I'll have done 6 days this week.

HOWEVER...good news is this 1) I am now working for significantly more, yay for minimum wage increasing, so lots of money which I do definitely need/want 2) Saturday night/Sunday morning is a shift that I like (especially the bus coming back that drops me off at my doorstep) and 3) I missed working with Jewels tonight because they sent her to Lakeshore and this way I will make up for it (though it just being the two of us kind of sucks...but oh well).

Anyway, I need to stay up for a few more hours in order to do laundry, because my uniforms desperately need washing and other clothes do too.

I've been re-reading Chobits, which I wanted to do for awhile but couldn't because I accidentally left vol 3 & 4 in Ottawa. But now I have them and it is lots of fun. I really love this series. It may have been de-throned from the favourite CLAMP spot by xxxHolic, but I still adore it.

Oh, and I've been having so much fun with Path of Radiance. I'm doing quite well in it too, I think. Except for the fact that Mist died. I'm sure she would have been a really good unit too, but oh well...I hate levelling up healers anyway (and my Rhys is looking to be awesome so I'll at least have him). Also, the games with awesome "lord" characters make me realize how much Eliwood sucks. Because he does.
