The Daily Odyssey

It was a real drag flying home, since my original flight, scheduled at 11:05am was cancelled, and was put onto the next flight… at 4:00 in the afternoon. Hurray. Luckily, Brannon and Marion were still around, so they gave me a ride to Walmart and I picked up a book to read to chase away the doldrums.

I ended up purchasing the Dragonball Z 3in1 Manga on a lark, since when I was in middle school I couldnt get enough of that show. Figuring this translation would also be a little more true to form, I figured it would be much better. And holy crap, how right I was, everything just works thousands of times better than the tv show, most notable is the pacing, which is cranked up about 300%. And the action is classic Akira Toriyama kineticism, you can feel those punches on the page. So I highly recommend this to anyone remotely interested in manga.

Anyhow, the delay was a bitch and all, but getting to fly First Class for the first time was pretty sweet. I might, the stewardess’ hung up my coat for me completely unasked when I first sat down. Though the funny thing was when I remarked about the service, the stewardess kept saying how it’s better than “back there”. Oh Elitism!

Anyhow, after a lovely drive home with my parents quarreling about directions I soon made my way to my friend usual hangout: John’s house. John’s a good friend a of mine, and I pretty much just watched Dave play Disgaea 3 all night. A grim reminder of why maybe its best I dont stay home: hanging out with friends = no work gets done, more so than usual!

And yeah, everyone was pretty gassy that night. We’re very gross and impolite people. Live with it.
