Oh dear cockroach,
who was sent from the heavens
to wake me up at 3:03am.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGGGHHHHHHHH!!
Your noble sacrifice will never be forgotten.
You will live on forever in my blog,
and in the trash heap,
My Hero.
I managed to get 47 sentences into the SRS yesterday. A little every day goes a long, long way. It would go even further if I could do more studying at home, but once I get off work I just want to plop down in a lazy chair and play something simple and straightforward. Gotta get out of this habit of relying on English translations a.s.a.p. Speaking of which, I hear Mana Khemia 2 will be out tomorrow.
On the plus side, I’ve definitely noticed a great boost in my reading speed ever since I started this All Japanese thing. It still takes me a while to get through Yomiuri articles and the more technical wikis, but manga is a cinch. So is Mainichi Daily, which seems better designed and more tailored to the plebs than Yomiuri. Their entertainment section is more interesting, too.
Now on to today’s websites. I usually read one or more websites than I list here, but this is just the minimum I try to get through in a day.

I ran out of Dear Abby articles to read so now I’ve switched to Dear Prudence. She’s not much fun, though, and her questions/answers are all tl;dr. That’s all for today.
