DAMNIT HONOR!!

STOP SPENDING MONEY!!!
In other totally unrelated news, Mercury and Mars are now ordered. As are like 4 little keychain games so the girls can have a few toys of their own.(oh and some fake. Food blind box from some company called Re-Ment cuz I couldn't tell what size they were so. I got the cheapest blindbox set I could... and it was $10 at cheapest!)
I intend to pose them and take pics like the squealing fangirl I am.
Damn, I need a life.
And instead of a life, I want money so I can get Venus. Perhaps I should be glad that Jupiter and Saturn are preorder only, and Uranus aand Neptune haven't even shown up. Cuz money? What money? And I still gotta get the new dvds when they come out!

shopping again *slaps self hard!*

WTF with my spending money like I actually have some?!?!?
Moving on...now that i am on the computer again (Bro fixed it! yay!) I looked up that cute mini cake youtube vid i sent to Peri with my "wtf is this" question. Youtube's mobile update doesn't like my old smartphone. Anyway... the person who posted the video outright said it was edible! And then... I found it on Amazon! And guess what else I found on Amazon....

Uranus and Neptune mini plushies!!! They weren't sold by Amazon but they were fulfilled by Amazon. I'm not sure what the difference means but so long as Amazon is the shipper I'm not too worried. And then and then and then... since my plushies were fulfilled by Amazon, they qualified for that Add-on Item thing.. which my mini cake set was. The mini cake set requires the microwve and I read that American microwaves are overpowered in comparison toJapanese microwaves. Combine that with how the directions are in Japanese (eeeeeek) and i figured I needed at least two so the 1st can be the rough draft. And damnit, Honor, the next time you are spending money on Amazon you WILL get at least one Senshi! Yea ok a single Senshi is still far more expensive than anything else I've ordered thus far. STILL!

Here is the mini cake video, and I'm glad it exists not just because this is how i learned about making mini foods, but I'll also be following it since I can't read Japanese!

and can I just say i love that poster? there's no interaction but her vids are sooo informative and even soothing to me. So much cuteness!

I don't know what expiration dates i can expect. i'm hoping hoping hoping that they will stay good until I get all of the Inner Senshi later this year. Jupiter isn't even scheduled to be released until August. Venus is later this month. So yea.. start buying more Senshi dammit! Although i guess i could also make one when I get Mars and Mercury. It was just Moon, Mercury, and Mars for several episodes.

or.. i also got mini waffle kit as another Add-On from Amazon. Here's that video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GAVFC9UweYg

Looks like that one doesn't even need the microwave.

I don't really expect these things to taste any better than the cheaper gummi candies i sell at work. The point is that they LOOK amazing and adorable while still being edible. Thanks to that youtube poster i've seen mini food kits that require serious prep but are neither edible nor permanent. Yeesh! If I'm going to bother with making something, I want to eat it or keep it!

and yes, that means I've started watching videos about making minifoods using polymer clay. It looks like a steep learning curve, but why the hell not try? Tho after some reading... sounds like maybe at first i could go the air-dry clay route. The air-dry stuff shrinks a bit but for a beginner that could be good. i could start a wee bit larger with my clumsy hands. And there's also how temperamental my oven can get. Air-dry is AIR-DRY, and as small as they would be, they'd probably dry quick. A few days at most. Maybe even just one day.

Of course everyone on the internet has their own percfect clay recipe. Ugh ugh how to choooose?

bad Honor! stop shopping!

So while on Amazon wishlisting all the Sailor Senshi I could find (Saturn is now up for preorder too) I found some way too cute Barbie stuff that i'd wanted as a kid but family could not afford. So chalk one up to the inner child. 3 things for the price of a single Senshi doll is how I justified it to myself. Besides, my girls need a home and stuff... right?
I got 1 official Barbie set (laundry, wtf self?) And two barbie knockoffs that looked damn cute and had generally positive reviews. A kitchen, full kitchen w fridge and sink and stove/oven. And a grocery store. And I know damn well these things will be way too big for my Senshi dolls. And part of me doesn't care. I'll dig out my old barbie doll and play Mama Barbie and Toddler Senshi. Or something.

90s SAILOR MOON RE-RELEASE AHHHH!!!!!!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RWPyM9afQ-w

anyone who's seen Sailor Moon S in the original with English subs (or hell, even the dub didn't hide it well)knows damn well what that hand scene between Haruka and Michiru means.

THEY CHOSE THAT SCENE FOR A REASON!!!

OMG so happy. And i dunno how to get the streaming to work (help?) but it also says the episodes are going out on dvd, blu-ray etc. you KNOW I'm getting it!!!!

THERE GOES ALL MY MONEY!!!

Yes, i know i already got it all off Youtube. i believe in supporting stuff i like! Otherwise how will the idiot companies know what to make more of?

I'm also slowly slowly collecting the Sailor Moon figuarts. Fortunately, Amazon is a designated North American seller so i can get them. I already have Sailor Moon. I'm saving up for the rest. I first learned about them on another fan's tumblr. Here's the post where she shows pics she found of the Outer Senshi (omg want!)
http://keyofnik.tumblr.com/post/85270967491/sailormooncollectibles-sailor-mars-jupiter
and the #sm merchandise tag will take you to the rest. She herself has Mercury, Mars, and Moon. Venus and Jupiter are only up for preorder right now. Saturn is next in line, then I'm guessing my fav ladies, then Pluto, and dunno who after that. Maybe nobody? I mean, I'd have the ones I want. But theoretically they could do Chibs and her Senshi and Tuxedo Mask and various villans or supporting cast. Eh. I'd skip those tho. Just give me my girls.

I wish I had money to get every bit of Sailor moon stuff out there, but i am poor so after much thought I narrowed it to these poseable figuarts and now that I know the dear anime is coming out I'll add that as soon as i can. Even though i would at least love some plushies too. Will the re-release plushies? I want a plushie Uranus and Neptune dammit! please take all my money and give me my show and my dolls now!!!

And this is going at the same time as the new reboot called Crystal. And yay for reboots, even tho I will probably always prefer the original. It's like that with me and Star Trek too. But I will give Crystal a shot. So long as they keep the cuteness and the glorious female friendships alive, then Crystal will be cool by me.

Just ooo I want the original too damnit!

why won't my 'puter work?

Waaaaa! Computer was having issues starting up for days. If it could stay on for 5 mins then it was golden for however long I kept it on. But those first 5 mins we're constant restarting and crashes. So I took it to Bro who did something called a registry cleaner and it found over 500 errors. So it all seemed good again and I brought puter home and hooked it back up.

And now the tower turns on but the monitor, keyboard, and mouse do not respond. Nothing. As if they are not connected. I thought maybe something got loose near the CPU board but I can't fire how to remove the green shell that covers that part. I know it can open cuz Bro opened it.
So I'm going bonkers. I've had no internet since Saturday. My phone here can only handle a few sites. I can't even pay credit cards on my phone anymore cuz they "upgraded" their mobile website. Upgrade my ass! It won't load for me anymore! And forget about online shopping! I am going crazy! I can't even check the shipping tracker for last week's amazon order! Ugh! I hate this!
Right now I'm watching Pride & Prejudice while my kitty sleeps in my lap. I love the costumes and hairstyles. But damn I want full internet back.
