Stuff I think about
It’s that time again! Actually, it’s already past that time, as pretty much all of the Spring 2023 anime series have already had three or four weeks to get episodes in. To look at it on the positive side, though,…
Yeah, really bad title pun. Couldn’t come up with anything good off the top of my head. Long story short – I am decently sure (like, 98+%) that, last night, I managed to fracture a toe on my left foot….
So, I’m currently in the process of (as the header advertised) doing a “thing”. Yeah, yeah. “What the hell is this ‘thing’ you are doing?” This one needs a little bit of backstory (as, it seems, do most of the…
Whoops? … I have temporarily hidden the introduction story for Helene Fabry (the other main character in my Kethyras stories) because I realized — in the first pairing story — I had made a fatal flaw, as the author /…
Since I’d first come up with the idea of having a “Gray Mouser” to Nonna‘s “Fafhrd”, and had decided her pairing character was to be a magic-user of some sort, I’ve had the scene where the two first meet absolutely…

In a comment on someone else’s blog, I (very) recently mentioned my physics professor from college. I say that in the singular form because it was a small college and the Physics department was tiny. Including the department head, I…
This is, somewhat, the continuation of My History With Anime as promised. As I’d mentioned, I started to read quite a few LNs (Light Novels). Some, I’ve started because I saw the anime and wanted to read the source material….
Where It Started I don’t exactly try to hide that I am a … somewhat avid? … consumer of certain types of Japanese fiction in various forms. This started decades ago with anime. And even that started first with the…
