Holy holy crap. You know, when I left for Phoenix today? I didn't figure flooding would try to stand between me and home. It took me three and a half hours to get home in the horrible storm, the water was running in the street and over the sidewalk and they diverted traffic off the freeway. We moved at about five miles an hour and had to steer around all the cars that stalled out. After that part, visibility was still shit, and I drove about fifty-five the whole way.

My nerves? Shot.

Full disclosure: pushpushlady made me promise I'd get a hotel room if the above happened and I did not. I really wanted to get home.

But in other news! We saw Wall-E and I got the entire Speed Racer manga!

Oh, and Setine lost my car keys. But we found them again.

There's a Speed Racer Manga? Any good?

[rocknload.livejournal.com]

I haven't gotten to read it yet! It's all hardcover in a box and everything, though. ^^ I'll probably read a bit before I get to sleep--don't think I'll make it to class, tomorrow. I'm fucking beat.

Glad you got back okay. Lemme know when the journal goes up.

[rocknload.livejournal.com]

I haven't even read it yet! Maybe I will hate it.

[unicorn]

MAYBE.

Why would you ever start a story with, "Speed, you remember your brother Rex who ran away from home six years ago, don't you?"

... Also, three scenes from volume one are repeated verbatim from volume one. I think they just copy-pasted them. What the hell.

I HAVE ANOTHER LINE I MUST SHARE.

Trixie: "Speed... I'm glad you're alright!"
Speed: "Well, sort of. I'm trapped inside the Palace of Doom, fighting off a pack of vultures!"

[unicorn]

Oh, Speed.

Hey, he's a ... I don't even know. POSITIVE THINKER? I know I would've brought up the Palace of Doom thing in the beginning of the conversation. Also, being attacked by a pack of vultures would not warrant a "sort of" okay.

[unicorn]

Wouldn't it be a flock?

[rocknload.livejournal.com]

I do not think they were normal vultures. Those just circle you, waiting for you to die.

[unicorn]

Well, if they feel threatened they also projectile vomit.
