I'm definitely and absolutely fine, aside from feeling like a total lump this evening. Someone who shall remain nameless left me with a good chunk of his metric buttload of Gokudo cels, some Slayers cels, and settei; I have several packages' worth of my own purchases to deal with and, oh yes,
the omake... about fifty pounds of old CDs that he has since replaced with properly purchased DVDs of anime episodes. Spouzal Unit and I have spent the afternoon figuring out what we don't already have... on about 1/3 of the discs.

It's the "embarrassment of riches" thing. I have so many cels to scan and anime to watch that I don't know where to start.
I think that compared to many many people in the world this day, I have it pretty darn good.
On the other hand... two of my co-workers have had parents die in the past four days. Let me just be a bit superstitious here and pray that this particular blessing doesn't come in threes (especially since my dad and his significant other are travelling right now). And that Xellos-chan gets moved out safely. and Sakura-chan's friend is well on the road to recovery.
And that mother nature will cut the Gulf Coast just a little bit of a break.

"The permanent temptation of life is to confuse dreams with reality. The permanent defeat of life comes when dreams are surrendered to reality."
