Gah...I wish I had thought it through a little more carefully 2.5 years ago when I sat at my computer with a goofy grin on my face and typed in "Kusoyaro Productions" for the title screen for my first video.
By the time the name was widespread enough for me to regret it, it was too late to change it without confusing people. Walking around with the handle "Kusoyaro" would have been great in high school...it would even be acceptable in college. But I'm 22 now, and it's not so funny anymore. Grrrr...why couldn't I have chosen a "cool" name like "Linkinball Z Productions"? (kidding)
It's a little hard to be taken seriously when your studio name is something that Japanese schoolchildren would not be allowed to say in class.
Ah well...there's always Stifler's Mom ^_- -

I fucking hate ironing my clothes.
As I was driving home from New York today, I got this overwhelming sense of just wishing the goddamn drive would hurry up and be over. And I noticed what a familiar feeling it was.
And then it hit me: for the entire 3.5 months I've lived here in Baltimore, there have not been two consecutive weekends where I was not out of town or did not have out-of-town guests. Well, call me weak, but I am FUCKING EXHAUSTED. The one weekend I had completely to myself (about a month ago) felt like heaven....even running all around town on errands until 4 PM gave me an incredible sense of feeling recharged. I enjoy solitude...and I'm not getting enough of it. After next weekend and then AnimeUSA, I'm not going anywhere or letting anyone come over for at least a month.
On a different note, Ken Shimazu's posts about going to Japan for a year makes me jealous. I was actually supposed to be living in Osaka, Japan for 3 years, working for Mitsubishi Electric. A small but devastating CLERICAL ERROR (of all things!!) on the part of some idiotic secretary prevented it from going through, and no one found out until it was too late. A dream foiled (or at least put on very very indefinite hiatus) by gross stupidity. Sigh.... -

Did a small, informal "how-to" AMV panel for a friend's college anime club this weekend...went okay, but I forgot my cell phone charger :(
Speaking of such...serious long distance relationships suck. Being in a strange town this weekend, where even phone contact has become difficult is not helping. And while nothing in the world could make me give up this incredible, incredible girl...I feel the suckage all the same, day and night.
I wish I had something more profound to say about the matter...but I just feel sad right now. I'm reminded of the song Jason Salce did his Masters video to this year:
"And all through the party I want to leave
All alone with one true love."
There's a party going on downstairs, and I left it to call my girlfriend and write this depressing journal entry. The ironic thing is, I'm happier these days than I've ever been...yet so much of what makes me happy is so far away. Somebody stop me before I make another "With Every Light"-like video...I think the world can only stomach ONE of those.
</whiny bitchiness> - kill me sarah...kill me again...with love...i feel my luck could change 2001-09-29 01:45:39 I just heard the full version of that "O Sinners" song, whatever the real title is. I think EK's insane for abandoning that idea...it's perfect!

From a rest stop on the border of Jersey and New York

Never before have I felt such intense dislike for a state while driving through it.
New Jersey truly is the goddamn armpit of the United States.
