Last night, I finished my second anime music video, “One-on-One.” You can get it at my Anime Music Videos page. Then my body refused to go to sleep, and so I read about 50 pages of Cold Mountain, which is turning into a pretty good book. Ironically, I’m beginning to like the female protagonist more (now that she’s not stumbling blindly towards certain starvation), and the male protagonist a lot less […]

Yeeeha! other-space.com is now finally hosted on WebMages. Based on my experiences with rendering my Iria anime music video last night (every attempt to render the final video came out screwy), I’m thinking about upgrading my computer. I could replace the motherboard and CPUs with dual P3 800s, and add a 9 GB SCSI hard drive and controller, for about $1,200. I could afford it, too. :-) I shouldn’t have spoken […]

Been having a lot of fun downloading anime music videos lately. I’ve created this site, All Anime Music Videos, which is a directory of anime music videos (duh). There doesn’t seem to be any one-stop list of them. I also incldue my own personal reviews and descriptions of the videos that I’ve downloaded. Interestingly, I’ve been finding that there are very few bad anime music videos. […]

Well. After a long struggle to move my domain name from Frontline.net to WebMages, and Network Solutions verifying (by e-mail) that the changes were made, it looks like other-space.com no longer resolves to anything. Great. I get to spend another half an hour waiting on hold with Network Solutions. At least their representatives are pleasant and helpful. I and my parents spent some time last night going over plans for our trip to England […]

Last night, I watched the rest of Key: The Metal Idol. I won’t try to say whether it’s better or worse than other anime series, even in my opinion; it’s useless data. I will say that I’ve reached forward, grabbed this series, and hugged it close. This is a treasure. The plot is incredibly tight, as tight as any plotting I’ve seen. Not only is everything explained — down to every […]
Monday, January 1, 2001 — New Year’s Day
I and my parents went to an engagement party for some friends of ours today (I know her through her brother, and he got me my present job at Intersect). It was good, except that I don’t usually do very well at parties. My natural shyness gets the better of me, and I can never think of anything interesting to say or ask. My slight speech impediment doesn’t help, either. So, it was sort of lonely. It wasn’t […]
