I am also getting worried because Yes Asia said they shipped my FMA calendar on November 18th but I still have not received it. :(

Finally I am sort of sick. It's not a horrible sickness but I just have a bad cough that I can't seem to get rid of. I suppose it could be worse.

This is kind of an odd question, but what do you guys think of the handwriting in this book. On the one hand, I do think my handwriting has quite an "accent" - I think it's both overly accurate and "incorrect" at the same time. But at the same time, perhaps because most of what I read is typed, some of the characters in this book seem... too lazy. For example, the ご seems inappropriately tilted. But I will admit that the characters are far more beautiful and elegant than anything I write... I dunno.
But yeah, would you say this is handwriting to aspire to enough to buy the book, or should I try to write even nicer than this?

[EDIT: If I were to describe the kind of handwriting I'd like to have, it'd be how a 優等生 would write their class notes. If that makes any sense.]

I was reading a Wikipedia article today on the Mayurakshi River, which flows through West Bengal. Here's the clip from the article that I'm curious about:

Mayurakshi literally means the eye of a peacock (mayur/mor=peacock, akshi=eye).

That's cool, but it doesn't mention which language the translation comes from. Is it Bengali? I tried to use the Google detect-language option, but that told me it was English, so...fail language detection is fail. =P Does anyone here know?

It's a good thing that I went in to work a little earlier than normal the other night. I started at 3 and not 3:15...

Work was so DEAD. We had way too many people working. I guess they figured it would be a busy night, but during my eight hour shift, I mostly read, browsed websites for Black Friday deals, looked at like thousands of shoes, and wasted time on all the crossword puzzles in my stack of magazines. I only had a handful of calls.

Though we did have some fairly interesting callers. I love it when people try to self-diagnose. They're so funny.

Also, I watched Glee and was largely underwhelmed. I think I need to watch it again when I'm not so dead tired? It had some good moments (Imagine, ♥) but overall, something didn't sit right with me and I don't know what it was.

Is there any appreciation for the American accent in other languages? I love to listen to non-native speakers speak English and I'm wondering if anyone loves hearing native American English speakers speak other languages. I hope I wrote that clearly.

I always feel pressure to mimic a language and try to have no influence whatsoever from my American accent. It's to the point that I become more focused on sounding "right" than actually speaking.

Somehow adding more music to my CD collection seems to have also resulted in adding more icons to the_silver_key...

5 x To Aru Kagaku no Railgun
1 x Seitokai no Ichizon

Here's a cropped still from a Bones episode:



This is definitely not French. Is it some other Romance language or should it go to FailBlog? :)

UPD: Middle French. Thanks everyone.
