Random Thoughts On A Thorsday Eve

 
I finished watching Girls Band Cry the other night, and ara ara! 

This anime is pretty much like Akiba Maid War. It's female centric and adorably rude. I loved all the characters, especially beer swilling guitarist Momoka. She not only gave rise to "Middle Fingers Up!" but taught bright eyed country girl Nina (background) that the gesture means "Thank you." in the big city. I kid you not.

There's no plans for a second season at this time, which is a shame since it seems like there's more story waiting to be told with this quintet of misfit women that formed a rock band.

I'm currently watching Death Race 2024, aka the Macau Grand Prix. Tonight is the first day of practice, and during the next three nights there will be various practice, qualifying and races on both two and four wheels. It will be streamed live on GTWorld's YouTube channel as well as on Motorsports.TV.

No fatalities have happened since 2017, but honestly I think it's only a matter of time before death makes its appearance. That track is downright dangerous in dry conditions, and today it's raining. Ara ara!

I have some news on the dating front. I enlisted Bert and his neighbor's husband to help me get a date with Pet Sitter, the tall woman I met at the block party the night after Halloween, and... I've been banished to the friend zone already? Well, it's just a starting point. 

I've advanced from friendships into romantic relationships many times in the past, so I'm not discouraged. I actually prefer this since it gives me a chance to really get to know someone better. From my past experience when something develops it becomes a relationship with a solid foundation.

But I have fears...

Maybe because I'm so used to "wham, bam, wanna do it again ma'am?" I've nearly forgotten what it's like to be patient when it comes to relationships. Throw in the fact I'm literally burying family members and it feels like I have no idea how much time I have left. Will I live ten, twenty or thirty more years?

Before I delve into my habit of over analyzing things that may never come to pass, I'm just going to take a deep breath and call her tomorrow night to see where this leads.
