I'm back in Bridgeport and rocking out. Audio Bullys - Generation, is my final new album from Amoeba Music. This album rocks hard. His vocals are heavily processed at points and otherwise sounds similar to the Streets in that he's British and does more talking then straight singing. But he is singing, not just chatting at you. Its a hell of an album.

ACen was at moments spectacular and awful. The con itself was a bit of a waste of time. The panels weren't very good and the video rooms weren't compelling at any point except for 7 am. Really, 7am? Yes, that sounds like the perfect time for Samurai 7. Who isn't awake then?

The dealer room had great deals and I picked up the rest of Madlax, the next four of Ghost in the Shell season 2 and the first of Read or Die the T.V., Cromartie High and Eureka 7. I will probably never mention them again, but I am intensely excited about all of them. They should be delicious.

And two more wall scrolls. The main characters of Samurai Champloo and the Major and Tamagochi's from Ghost in the Shell now grace my walls with the pioneers Claus and Lavi from Last Exile. Yes, I am a dork and proud of it.

And friends from out of town, or even in town, are always good. I hope my Oregonian friends had a good time even if I was crazy tired all weekend and especially yesterday. I am a bad host! Sorry! And to my friends in the south(er) lands of Chicago: I will back this week and I have your Sharpie. And your copy of Negima 8. I will bring both in exchange for Giant Drag and a sleeping bag.

This week is for starting to find a job. Ugh, gotta learn lua, python and then sign my life away to a startup. Or maybe go work in Boston for a former (recent) startup. Maybe I should just watch cartoons instead...
