Konichiwa!

listening to: 'Angels and Devils' by Toby Lightman
feeling: Bemused and a little scared

Note to self: Never forget and leave your cell phone in the hands of a madman after watching anime together. You could get a call saying, gee, let's call Japan! Or worse, your mom, at work, in the middle of the night.

Okay, madman's a little strong. How about eccentric, brotherly-type bent on teasing you unmercifully? You know, the type who wrestles with you during commercials until you chant the release phrase (because 'uncle' isn't enough) but would defend you till his dying breath if anyone tried to hurt you; who calls out the same phrase you do because you just think too much alike and forgives you even when you go down not one, but two one-way streets the wrong way in an afternoon (but will continue to rib you about it).

What can I say? It's not exactly normal, but it is special and I wouldn't trade it for the world. :)
