Trying to find a way to an appointment tomorrow. As far as I can tell, I'll need to take three buses, but I can't tell for sure since the bus company's map is seriously inaccurate. That certainly would explain the quality of the bus service in this area, but it doesn't help me. I know it's near a place I've been to before, but I don't remember the area well enough to walk, plus I don't remember which bus will take me there.

... Yes, the hugs are for everyone.  No stabbing, though.  Just hugs.

I finished watching Neon Genesis Evangelion the other night. I think that counts, right? Though, frankly, I wasn't horribly distraught about the ending, or the themes, given my interest in existentialism and the half-bottle of wine caressing my brain. Still, even with the mental power tools that is TvTropes, my brain feels like a disaster zone with all the gunk I have to sift through to make sense of it.

It's close to how much of a loop House of Leaves threw me for. Yaaaigh.
Make sure to watch End of Evangelion as well, so you can have an ending that isn't the animated expression of Anno having a breakdown.

Yea, the original evangelion is just shinji being a huge baby and literally ruining everything due to vague reasons related to poor parenting and sexual tension, while the other characters clearly have issues but are at least functional. It shifts the focus from the cool sci fi setting and puts way too much importance in how terrible the characters are.

Its like "hey, look! Mechs! Aliens! Mechs that are aliens except not! Cross shaped explosions! Strange references to christianity and judaism! Fanservice! Harem animu! Now forget all that and lets see how shinji deals with his hormones and mean daddy".

More insanity in my day. Now, I'm seeing a short, looping ad video on a webpage that, every single time it loops, causes the page to scroll exactly to it for several seconds, preventing scrolling away. There is a pause button on the video, which does absolutely nothing. And even crashing the Flash plugin that enables to even exist on a webpage doesn't even do anything.

Someone's pet pigeon has decided that my garden is a nice place to chill. It's perfectly tame and looks to be fine, it just would rather hang around here than go wherever it's supposed to be.
It must be broken. This is the opposite of homing.
Managed to get it to hold still enough to read a phone number off its tag. It's meant to be about 80 km away from here. Must be either new or lazy,

It got a breast cramp, you see. Could be fatal to fly with a cramped breast.

My WTF is more a reaction of amazement. That's one badass bunny.

Time on the library computer ran out without warning, right in the middle of checking my route. Good news is, the third bus I have to take does go by where I need to go, maybe even the second one(which would cut the travel cost in half).

Unfortunately, I'm also about three hours early since I don't know the schedule. And it's going to rain.

Oh hey, they're making a new Reboot show. I remember the old one, it was pretty cool, I hope that the new one-

Quote
Transcending age groups with appeal to kids, tweens and teens, ReBoot: the Guardian Code is an adventure-comedy series about four teens (Austin, Parker, Grey and Tamra) who discover that they’re next-gen Guardians with a mission to save the world, by defending it in cyberspace. The Internet revolutionized the world, but it also left it vulnerable to attack. With the help of VERA, the last surviving cyberbeing from the original Guardian Program, our heroes stream into cyberspace where they use their awesome code-based powers to battle viruses that have been unleashed by a ruthless hacker. Known only as the Sourcerer, he seeks to rule the world by controlling cyberspace.  Original fans of the show will be happy to hear that Megabyte will be back and he’s getting a major upgrade. ReBoot will showcase leading edge technologies and bring coding into the mainstream for kids.

When Austin, Parker, Grey and Tamra are not trying to stop viruses from overloading a nuclear power station, or remotely opening a dam to flood a city, or playing Criss Cross Crash Hour with a city’s transportation grid, our heroes are being typical teens: arguing with their parents over curfews; dealing with crushes; or trying to avoid getting suspended for skipping class when they’re really on a cyber-mission to save the world!

WHYYYYYYYYYY
