大好きぜよ

Just a small collections of things... Today I went to Geek Fair, had a decent time, got to walk around and talk with Z-san afterwards and found an old fountain I'd mislaid.

A few days back I had a most excellent beer. Now I'm not much of one for beer in general, though I can certainly respect a good one. There's this beer down at the grocery store I'd thought looked interesting for a while, but the price always seemed a bit too high for me. Last time I went shopping it was on sale, not much of a sale — one dollar off is all — but enough to bring it within cost for trying, and so I got the four pack. I had one not so long ago and oh man it was tasty, a good thick dark beer. A bit pricey for something to drink regularly but Old Rasputin Russian Imperial Stout is well worth the cost when you just want to sit down with a top of the line drink and enjoy life.

Work has been interesting. I'll be starting up some rambling about LDAP over on my f/oss blog this week to document my travails. That is afterall what the f/oss blog is for, much as it is frequently defunct.

Courtesy of nekketsu I've fallen madly for YUKI, a former member of JAM. Her videos are utterly bizarre. And gorgeous. And her voice is so unique and lovely. I'll have to see if I can't get my hands on some cds by her. Some choice PVs are: JOY (Live), メランコリニスタ, End of Shite (some surreality may not be work safe), ふがいないや, ドラマチック, ヘローグッバイ, 長い夢, スタンドアップ!シスター, 喜びの種, Home Sweet Home. ::sigh::

In searching around for Yuki I also discovered Lolita23q (少女ーロリヰター23区). Ah sweet sweet visual kei. This too I must come to possess. Siren Blue, 888 ~Kohaku tou no Shoujo~, Usagi ni Geru Hanazono, Ishoku Othello. (Hey Pretty. Fan tribute, different band does the song.)

And if you're still not convinced yet this is part of why I love Japanese. And this. And this. And this. And this.

In other news [livejournal.com profile] theweaselking wins at the internet. That had me cackling for an hour at least. And if that's not enough this only makes it better. ::chortle::
