I am not happy with KittenKong.
She ate my flashing uke-bunny ears. I woke up this morning to puzzle over the little bits of down spread all over my bedroom... and then I noticed the sad remains of my bunny ears next to the boules set.
Hmmm. Maybe KK ate the ears because her feminist soul was offended by them - or maybe it was because they were made of maribou...

Niki has found me a lounge-suite! : ) This means I now have all the furniture I need (except for a fridge) when the cubs and I move.

I was having a look through some of my 'funnies' files and found these couple of gems.
The first is an actual description of an item I was sighing over on ebay...

The Shitajiki = Pencil Board of Japan.

The Shitajiki pencil board is the healthy plastic board that the animation image etc. of the popularity was printed.
The mania who is collecting the Shitajiki pencil board is throughout the world.

The child of Japan likes the Shitajiki pencil board that the animation image etc. of the popularity was printed very much.
The school children of Japan spreads the Shitajiki pencil board under the paper, to make completely flat description and use.
The Shitajiki mania of Japan is doing the shitajiki pencil board, that the animation image etc. of the popularity was printed the collection carefully.

As for the Shitajiki pencil board of Japan, there is a characteristic in the animation, color, gloss, beautiful image of the popularity.

... and speaking of Japanglish, in the Gravitation oav, when uke-boy has a funny turn at the empty night club and Hiro says 'oh no, he's going into a fantasy coma!' - does that mean the same thing as 'day-dream'?

Soulsis sent me this next one ages ago...
