Picked up the last 4 volumes of Tokyo Babylon today at the store. I ended up spending so much they gave me a free $10 gift card to use next time. Already I'm wondering if I can use the card on their website to order Gohou Drug (after re-reading the scanlations last night I realized I really should get it sooner than RG Veda since pages are missing from the scans and the quality isn't that great for part of vol2).

And my almost 14 year old dog had a decent check-up at the vets today. Yay! I don't talk as much about Rusty but he's my baby and has been sick a lot throughout his life. Even our vet was surprised earlier this year when Bear died instead. It was the weekend when Bear got sick and was put to sleep so on the following Monday she thought they got the dogs mixed up at first when they told her what happened.

Gay vampire, LOL.

Wow, just finishing Toyko Babylon? I picked up 4 volumes of Clamp no Kiseki and I got a discount and some ads. $130 dollars on manga... wow.

I still need to get around to buying the last three volumes myself. All the bookstores around here only have up to volume 2 in stock, so I have to buy them online. TB is under-appreciated. DX

I have an 18 year old dog whom I'm surprised hasn't died yet (he's ancient), probably going to have to put him down before the end of the year though.

Well, he's gay and a vampire... :P

I'm cheap. I've had the scanlations for TB forever but I got tired of trying to read them since they're such bad quality.

It is indeed under-appreciated. My store only had 1 copy of each volume so I snapped them up. They were there for a while too since no one was buying it.

18 year old dog? Wow that's good!

Aw, sorry to hear about Bear, and glad that Rusty got a clean bill of health! My Chani-girl almost made it to 16 yrs, which is at the far end of the scale for Chows; I've often thought it ironic that the day she was diagnosed with inoperable liver cancer, the vet's assistant had greeted us at the door with "You're looking pretty good for a geriatic Chow, Chani!"

I still miss her so badly sometimes, she was my sweet and sassy Hoosier girl. It'll be 4 years in January. Why do my Chows always go in the winter?

*sigh*

Aww poor sick puppy. At least he's pretty healthy this time. I've been thinking about reading Tokyo Babylon even though I don't have time to get into anything new at the moment, lol. I just finished (finally) watching Ouran Host Club and I've still only read through Vol 5 of the manga. I've been watching Getbackers lately, actually... never was interested in it before because I heard it was strange, but I was surprised at how nice and slashy it was once I gave it a chance. ^^

I always found Chows to be adorable.

I know the feeling, Bullet, the dog I had as a kid, had his best check-up in years, less than a month later on our on way home from Florida he has a bad stroke and we were really concerned we wouldn't get him home (we were driving). Patches, my other dog as a kid (who died 6 months after Bullet) was another one; that night we had her out trick-or-treating with us and a few hrs later she was paralyzed (turns out she had tumors or something on her spine). Then there was Bear, the only warning we had with her was the night before she died, when she wasn't acting like herself (she was fine during the day), took her to the vets the next morning and they tell us she has internal bleeding from an unknown mass and that even with surgery there was an 80% chance the same thing would happen in 2-4 weeks. *sighs*

I've been thinking about watching/reading Getbackers. I just never found the time yet. I heard it's suppose to be really slashy (which is always what I'm looking for in animes/mangas, lol).
