[580] Mm? - 2008/02/27 (Wed)

Who's that? (^_^)

Oooh, right, it's a copy robot. (^_^)

Well, leaving the jokes aside, my anniversary is coming around again, isn't it. Can't-stick-with-anything me (^^;) and it's already been a year and nine months...?

My being able to continue like this is really thanks to you all. (^_^)

Now, instead of saying I touch everyone's lives, I myself am the one being healed by everyone. (^_^)

I hope this place continues forever...

P.S. I know it's a little late, but, this year's a leap year, isn't it. Things like this always feel like a bonus day. (^_^)


[ i've been thinking of making a links page for this diary, what do you guys think? ]

[579] Oh yeah, - 2008/02/26 (Tue)

it's a little late, but I forgot to introduce you; this is a present from Satan. (^^;)

Bad luck this year? notwithstanding, it was no surprise. Of course, last year, he saw right through me, so. (^_^)

Well, but still, every year for two weeks before and after my birthday, I can't be brought down by seriousness. (^_^) Since I had such a severely painful experience. (^_^) Maaan, this year, everything was really good... (^_^)

So, well, the day right before the Shiragane event, I got a NEW board. (*joy*) Truly a man with good timing. (^_^)

I bought some shoes, too, and the board was brand new, and so I thought, there will be some seriously intense boarding from here on out, but somehow I've got such an unreasonable schedule. (^^;) And the first storm of spring blew in...

Aah... I really wanna go at least once more...

Oh, before that, my body has to heal, I guess. (^^;)

P.S. When it takes you this long to recover... You truly have become an old man... (bwahahah)


[ those of us who are on the old man's BBS mailing list got a little notice today telling us of a website "renewal," which for japanese websites usually means a redesign, but in this case mostly seems to mean, hey take a look at the vastly improved/photoshopped pics of YOUkun we've got NOW! so i wholeheartedly encourage you to check them out. http://www.you-robots.com/gallery.html ]

[578] The Sequel - 2008/02/24 (Sun)

Man oh man, everyone, there are some wonderful maniacs here, aren't there? (^_^) I'm already envious of the future generations.

In order to cancel out yesterday's distress, today I went out for a little viewing at the big department store. (^_^)

Actually, I used to have a 100 inch projector screen, but eventually, I went out and bought a convenient television, so I've been dreaming, like When will I get a home theater again!! (^_^)

So, with all the saturation recently of televisions and projectors, and full high definition, when I go to look, I wonder when I'll buy,

and also, the images are so gorgeous they make me sick. (^_^) Stuff was so clear and sharp that it felt like I could just reach out and touch it.

I don't have the essential projector, but Victor's got their HD100, right? There wasn't too much difference between that image and the others'. Well, the price was about 800,000 yen, but... (T_T) *

Although, just 2~3 years ago, a full high def projector was how many millions of yen, and it's getting cheaper, but


Frankly... I can't buy it. (^^;)

Incidentally, for a full high definition, 10,000 is about a reasonable selling price. And they're still plenty pretty.

For people interested in projectors, definitely relish the big screen revival. You can enjoy movies in a different way from a normal television.

As for me, I have days of battle to wage with my greed... (^_^) Of course, it's pointless to even look. (^^;)

P.S. Speaking of greed, I touched the Air, too. (^_^) It's so thin and light, I seriously couldn't beleive it~ It was a really good feeling.


[ * that's about 8,000! yikes! Also, the Mac Air, for those of you who haven't had the pleasure, is the thinnest notebook computer you would ever hope to lay eyes on. of course, it only had one USB port, and no ethernet port, and it's RAM is soldered onto the motherboard, but it has wifi, and it has one of those fancy new solid state flash drives, so if you're one of those creepy Mac people, definitely check it out. zehi, as YOUkun would say. ]

[577] A&V Festival - 2008/02/23 (Sat)

It's become the era of the BlueRay, so I went out for just a bit. (^_^)

Here, they have yearly maker pitches as well as demos and seminars going on a timetable, and this year, heading for a future generation of A&V, they'll probably be showing so many amazing visuals and sounds, I was getting all trembly just thinking about it,

when right there on the brochure, wh, what? 'Today's ticket distribution has ended.'

... GAAAH!! (T_T)

Hu... Well fine then... Thanks to that, I'll just keep my greed in check, too. (^_^)

There was no time to see, so I only got to see the exhibition booth, and then go right back home, but for people who are interested, you might be better off trying EARLY in the morning. It's your chance to touch the latest goods!

Well then, have a good weekend~

[576] A full moon, huh~ - 2008/02/22 (Fri)

It's about this time when I want to transform into a wolf... (bwahahah) Good evening, everyone, and sheep. (^_^)

For my all-important maintenance, while I've been eating only delicious foods, there was a 'flab' revival, before I could even say Woah Woah. (^^;)

Even so, when I went to the chiropractor the other day, he judged me, 'Until you a completely healed, no more body forging!!' ... (^^;)

Long-long Billy, I was thinking of reviving him... (T_T)

Well, for a while, I can persevere with stretches, I guess. Also, I'd better bear in mind a daily simple diet. (^_^)

Thanks to overeating. (bwahahah) It was recovery from an extreme physical condition, but still.

When you get tired, everyone, please eat to your heart's content. (^_^) More than anything, your body is your capital~

P.S. I'd better stow my Wii Fit, too, huh... (bwahahah)


[ i need a doctor who tells me not to excercise! (^_^) ]

[575] I forgot to eat puffer fish - 2008/02/20 (Wed)

at the beginning of the year. (^_^)

Even the taste of the puffer fish by itself is white, so I think there are pros and cons, but

after all is said and done, zousui is the answer!! * The good flavor of the raw materials, even though they are combined however you like, kuu~, I just can't do it.

Of course, I was plenty good at the promised sake fillet. (^_^)

As expected, I'm totally exhausted this week, so this is a maintainence thing. (^_^)

P.S. Is everyone alright? Yesterday, I crashed before I even knew it. Of course, I did over-do the skiing a little... (^_^)

Well then well then~


[ * zousui is a rice gruel thing with veggies, fish and soy sause. also, my views shot up pretty much overnight the other day, so, you know, welcome all you new freaks who were interested to know how his ski trip went. (^_^) ]

[574] I'm home~ - 2008/02/18 (Mon)

Everyone, during those two cold days, you truly held out well.

And during that situation with everyone's snowmen, everyone really went for it, huh. (*praise*)

This year for sure, thanks to training and my commanding officer, I've avoided muscle pain somehow, but my back and my neck are otherwise crumbling, so I'll be doing some zealous maintenance for a while.

Man~ this year was really quick, though. Since that last ball game fight with Satan-sama. (^_^) Well, we recovered the balls eventually, but. (*grin*)

All my teammates plunged in with 'You-san!! Get ready!!' (*wry smile*) Truly, thank you for pushing laid-back me. Somehow, Satan-sama was able to gain a victory over us, huh. Let's all go for it and aim for a big victory next year.

Also, to the team that won overall victory, true congratulations. Please keep up your daily diligence in your provisions. (^_^)

In closing, everyone who participated, I earnestly hope you don't get a cold or anything, and steadily rest your body. I look forward to meeting with in Shirogane next year, too.

P.S. Ah, my Billy post... I forgot to do it... (^^;) Maaan... I didn't make it, even with a day of sleep before hand. (bwahahah)

Great job everyone!!

[573] A pair before... - 2008/02/13 (Wed)

I head out to the mountains.

I can't wait to meet everybody.

Well then, until next week, we'll be on hiatus.

Today was cold, but have some warm pot goods. (^_^)

[572] This stupid cold - 2008/02/11 (Mon)

is really popular... I've gotten extremely well. Sorry for making everyone worry. m(._.)m

As expected, the hot sake was effective. (^_^)

I've been at it a while, forging my body, but in addition to the holidays that ruin my physical condition, these one day celebrations rebound me in one stroke. (^^;)

Well, thanks to that, I take in what nutrients I can, and try to beat back those cold germs. (^_^)

Lately, with the days whipping back and forth between warm and cold, it's been pretty easy to destroy my physical condition.

Let's all be carefull, shall we? People who have a cold right now, please take care of yourselves.

P.S. Somehow, it's always Paburon. *


[ * paburon is a japanese cough medicine/throat lozenge ]

[571] HAPPY BIRTH DAY TO ME (^_^) - 2008/02/10 (Sun)

This year, my birthday is spent in bed... (^^;)

I'm drinking hot sake, and keeping myself toasty warm in bed. (^_^)

I've gotten well-wishes from a lot of people, even in this state, and I feel so fortunate. I truly thank my parents for bringing me into a world like this!!

Also, I will try to live my life to the fullest, to the end of my days.

Everyone, truly, thank you.

This year especially, is it okay to open the Morizou? (^_^)

Well then well then, unfortunately, it's snowing, but please enjoy your day off.


[ omedetou yuu-san! ]

[570] Hay fever??? - 2008/02/09 (Sat)

Two ~ three days my nose hasn't stopped running, so I was thinking, am I developing hay fever? but when I thought about it, it seems like some kind of cold. (^^;)

As someone who gets a cold every time the seasons change, this season, the target was do not catch a cold.

Mysteriously, even enduring the initial symptoms for however long, I didn't recover until my my fever slowly appeared... I took some medicine, I ate nurtritiously, but I only managed to delay the advance of the cold, and my predisposition to diseases has landed me in bed after all.

Even Billy will have to hold off for a while... (^_^) If the consecutive holidays don't work, I'll have to obediently see a doctor...

Everyone, please, take care of yourself. I definitely have to get better for next week, too...

Well then well then~

[569] The Nori Effect - 2008/02/06 (Wed)

When I went to Korea last year, I bought some nori as a souvenier, but then I also got it as a gift from a friend, and before I knew it, I had a huge stock of nori...

So, lately, whenever I'm hungry, instead I gnaw on some nori instead of snacking between meals, but when I tried to investigate its effectiveness and stuff on the net, it turns out this stuff is absurdly good for your body.

First off, one sheet of nori contains half your dietary fiber.
Vitamin A ... A lot more than spinich... That'll put your stomach in order.
Vitamin B1 ... As much as approximately 30 sardines... To recover from fatigue.
Vitamin B2 ... 20 glasses of milk... Obesity prevention.
Vitamin B12 ... Contained in most seaweed... Anemia prevention.
Vitamin C ... More than lemons... Effective for beautiful skin.
EPA ... Blood flow.
Taurin ... Lowers cholesterol.
Calcium ... Irritation prevention.

Might it be a super nutrient food? I'm wondering how many people are familiar with this kind of health food... Plus, it's delicious. (^_^)

I'll try this for a while instead of supplements. (^_^) Let's all have a meal together. (^_^)


[ nori being dried seaweed, of the type you wrap sushi with. frankly, i'd never considered eating it by itself before... ]

[568] It's the year of the rat... - 2008/02/04 (Mon)

but how about a hamster instead? (^_^)

When I was young, everyone had one. (^_^) When I look back, things like that make me happy.

Without really thinking, it seems I went out and bought one, but they're not too much trouble, so this'll be more self-control.

First, I'd better make myself not too much trouble~ (bwahahah)

P.S. Yesterday, I completely forgot to scatter some beans...


[ what, you say, does the scattering of beans refer to? well, here i am to educate you! (^_^) at the new year, it is a japanese tradition to scatter beans around your house, and occasionally take pot shots at others with them, if you enjoy that sort of thing, in order to scare off the demons of the old year. so what are you waiting for people, get a'tossin'! ]

[567] The snow... - 2008/02/03 (Sun)

was pouring down...

I woke up about 5 in the morning, but outside it was like a proper disaster...

I wondered if I should spontaneously jump out on my board and slide around, the road was pure white. (^_^)

This is the kind of day that being a shut-in is the best, but for people that have to be outside, it was a big problem.

As for me, I only went outside a little bit, (^^;) but the snow piled up on my shoulders and I got sopping wet.

This is the kind of day you catch a cold on, so please get some rest and stay warm.

Ah- I forgot to make a snowman... (^_^)

Well then well then, good night.

[566] Finally - 2008/02/02 (Sat)

I surpassed 300 times...

Hey, that's serious...

Everyone, have a nice weekend~

[565] Incidentaly, - 2008/02/01 (Fri)

I was in a little distress. (^_^)

Thanks to the Mii, I'm getting a little attached to this Wii game.

So I say, but sooner or later, it'll be drawer fertilizer... (bwahahah)

This time's been unusually long, but. (^_^)

Well, I've been thinking about buying a new scale, if I ride the board every day, if maybe I should try a little movement, it'd feel nice, since it is first something to ride on~

Also, even if I move little by little, it'll be effective on my body bit by bit.

Billy is still pretty intense. (^^;) The daily muscular pain continues...

Well then well then... Aiaiaiai... (^_^)
