Schizophrenic internet connection.

For some really weird reason, whenever I try to load my koyasunomiko.com email site on my computer at home, the connection is insanely slow. I can access my koyasunomiko.com webpages fine, but not the email. And when I access it on a computer at work, it's fine; fast as usual. I'd say there's something wrong with my laptop, but it happens with the desktop in the computer room upstairs too. =( And then I'd say it's a problem with my router, but I tried using the next door neighbor's connection too, and it was the same. I am lost. I don't even know where to start, what it could possibly be. This really sucks.
Other news: I got a haircut last Sunday (not yesterday). It's yummy, I like it sooo much! It's short on my right side again, and longer on my left. The right side is shorter than I'd cut it before, though, so it's new for me, and I really like it! The only thing I don't like is that I'll have to have it cut a lot more frequently in order to maintain the look. Before I started cutting my hair, I'd go for years with nothing more than a semi-annual (if that) trim. Now I'll have to cut it every few months. Which is damn annoying because I have yet to find someone who will cut my hair the way I ask for it. ::growles::
Also! I watched the 13 Mirage of Blaze TV episodes this weekend during the snow... and O!M!F!G! it's soooo good. The further the series went, however, the more Naoe seemed to turn into Nanjo Koji, which is quite appropriate, IMO. I appreciated the fact that Takaya was a strong character and with the exception of one episode (whereNaoe Koji Hayami exerted his Ultimate-Seme powers), he didn't really give in and become a weak/whiny/helpless uke.
I really like that, for the most part, the story was plot-driven and NOT (thank god!) YAOI-driven. I have to watch the OVA tonight which, I'm hoping, will have a bit more story than was revealed in the TV series. Was this based on a manga like most anime? If so, I'd love to read the manga! If it's anywhere near as good as the anime, I'd be highly impressed. Anyone have any of the manga?
I am so going to watch Zetsuai over tonight after watching the OVA. =D
Lastly, the snow. Over 2 feet. Lots of shoveling. Need I say more?

Is it really like that? ;D
& Yes, I LOVE MoB... I have all the dvds & the ova from MB. As for Zetsuai/Bronze, I REALLY REALLY REALLY hope that gets picked up 1 day, just to see it subbed; even Ai no Kusabi... ;_;
Are we going to meet up @the D'espairsRay concert? Please let me know so I could txt msg you when I get there. OH! BTW! The Avalon is located on 20th St, but the Club entrance is on 6th Ave.
**HUGS**

Date: 2006-02-14 01:39 am (UTC)MoB is based on a novel series. It's got got one or two volumes of manga but the novels is where it started. Anyway, the OVA is based more closely on the novel. Um, I think it was novel vol 9. They better be planning more OVAs cuz the third ep totally leads you to believe so! Mmm.... ep 2. X.333
