Arrrrr. I cannot stop the icons from happening, yarrr. (Why are there 3984729487 Hughes impostors? And by 3984729487, I mean two.)

I really don't have anything else to update about.

....

I got the slip for Court and my Hughes/Roy doujin! Now I need to figure out how to get my mom to pick it up. (I'msobad.)

...

Why does gmail work for Jenny but not for me? Arrgghhh.

Today was an excellent day. It started out normal enough, and began to increase in Erin-happy-levels when she FINALLY had the blue sweats necessary to partake in the sadly necessary joyous practice of P.E. Then, she went off to AP Art, where she talked about government and felt smart. Then, after drawing Tidus-wannabe at lunch, she went to Japanese and did an improv presentation that somehow turned into declaring her undying love for Metal Gear Solid.

The best stuff happened at work, though. Oh, man, I fucking love work. So I come in, and my boss tells me that I'll be sorting DVDs for them. Although that might seem like a bad thing, it gives me yet another day to recuperate from that Michael Turner fire-from-hell flat that I worked three hours straight on. @_@ In any case, he says he also has gifts for me. And they were great gifts! My paycheck, which somehow increased since last time, and an anime magazine that they probably had lying around and decided to give to me, little miss teenyfan. Amazingly, this particular issue happened to be featuring XXXHolic, Tsubasa, Loveless, and Fullmetal Alchemist as their main stories. (This means that I now have a huge epic!page with Kurogane and Fai on it. HEY I CAN PUT IT ON MY WALL. There is also a huge gaypic of Soubi and Ritsuka zomg HAHA I CAN SEE WHY THEY WANTED TO GET RID OF IT.) It also has a comparing chart thing between the Trigun manga and anime, and the FMA ad that MAKES ME CRY. WTF. WHAT ARE THE CHANCES OF ALL THAT??? My wall is gonna rape that thing so bad...

So I start going through the DVDs and pairing the master copies with the duplicates. And then I come across a DVD with "Devil May Cry" listed in the contents.

Me:

>____>;;

So I end up wasting about five minutes just opening those GINORMOUS images and viewing the preliminary sketches and the raw sketch through Photoshop. XDDDDD It was sort of relieving to see that Michael Turner's rough sketches aren't much different from a normal person's. Woo. DANTE MADE ERIN HAPPY. (The good kind of Dante that doesn't toss babies.)

So I'm in the middle of that when Vince comes by and he's like, "Hey, has anyone shown Erin the new Dying of the Light yet?" (Dying of the Light is the dubious spinoff that I cleaned the hell up for most of my time there.) And no one had, so Vince comes over with a copy and opens the first page and points.

And this is there. )

Last one. And tiny. But that's just... wow.

(My boss is apparently a winner.)

Looking through those pages and realizing that you cleaned up most of them is also a doozy. Woo.

Oh, and to top it all off? I return home to find a box of FMA goodies, (Hughes and Roy figures, as well as Wrath and Hughesangst!Roy trading cards), from [livejournal.com profile] _dahne_. EEEE. THANK YOU SO MUCH. <3333333

So, really, only one question remains:

.....WHY THE FUCK DOES ARCHER GET A WHOLE CORNER TO HIMSELF?
