As I was saying to a coworker today: if we're going to have gloomy weather all May, then it might at least rain a bit more. As it is, we're both gloomy and heading for a summer water shortage, which seems to be getting the worst of both worlds.

My wire-wrapping is improving. Made a couple of bracelets which I don't think are too bad: will take them into work tomorrow for some second opinions. (I'm a bit handicapped here because I don't generally like wearing bracelets. They get in the way. It makes it hard for me to have a real artistic appreciation for them in themselves. Also, I may have put one link too many in the labradorite-garnet-haematite ones. Must check.

Had a curious passing idea re Bleach, which I'm putting down here for reference.

Discussion of recent manga issues and going right back to the start of the manga. )

Sleeping on a Summer Day

The sour taste of strawberries lingers in my mouth and teeth;
The pa-chiao tree shares its green with my window curtain.
Waking from a nap on a long day, I feel listless.
The hours are consumed in watching children catch willow blossoms.

They are making a Phoenix Wright movie.

. . . and it's being directed by Takashi Miike -- I'm not sure whether to be pleased or worried, but it might definitely be interesting. I believe they're doing the 4th case of game 1. I wonder who they'll be casting as Manfred von Karma . . .

Even if this will lack the glory of the Takarazuka production (group of singers in red chant, "Edgeworth!") it definitely, definitely interests me.
