Mid phase-3

I'm in the middle of "phase 3"; actually, even more towards the end. Mireille & Kirika have just returned from Austria, and we're about to have a dose of "the final guidance".

I might not quite be drunk enough to deal with it. Better work on that.

I think it's becoming a problem that I know this series by heart. I mean, if I were any good with a pencil, I could probably re-create it shot-by-shot from memory at this point. Every cue, every turn; I'm ready for it. I'm ready to act and feel appropriately. I know when to keep the tissues nearby. I know when I can have a chuckle in relief.

After this, no more "Noir" 'til New Year's. That's the way it has to be. The only thing that could make me break this goal is if it shows up again on one of the hi-def channnels.

(Obviously, I'm secretly hoping that my vow is what it will take to bring it back to one of the hi-def channels... *ahem*)

Anyway, back to the rest of the series. Tomorrow I'll get a chance to watch the latest "Tsubasa Chronicle", since it didn't show up in time for this morning's breakfast. And I've got another disc of "Master Keaton" to watch. Hopefully, my usual case of "Post-Noir Syndrome" won't be so bad this time that I won't be able to deal with either of them...
