It's been a bit mad around here since my last post! In the past...whoa, month, I have:
  • Been lucky enough to avoid any more random portals, thank Mickey.
  • Had to buy Gomamon a new bed, because he doesn't fit his old one any more. We also bought him a scratching post but he broke it the first time he tried it. Those claws are strong!
  • Been looking for something else for Gomamon to do during the day, because my friend whose classes he was going to is now studying abroad in Italy, and Gomamon's also now too big to be smuggled along in a backpack. Plus, giant claws. Suggestions are welcomed; his complaints are starting to drive me crazy.
  • Mourned Australia's quarterfinal loss to New Zealand in the Rugby World Cup. But at least we came third!
  • Started seeing a lovely young lady in my Spanish class. Seriously, world, she's awesome.
  • Turned twenty-one, complete with a big fancy party which was actually better than my little sisters' for once. (Their birthday is the day after mine, and there's two of them so their birthday's usually a bigger deal.) Dad, Gomamon, my older sister, and some of my friends did some nice and mostly not embarrassing speeches, Mum cried, and a few of our old flatmates even managed to come in from different states or in our old roommate's case, New Zealand. It was great.
  • Won a bit of money on the Melbourne Cup for the first time, though of course the lady won more than me. We also both looked pretty damn sharp at the races (well, Gomamon's still laughing at the lady's hat), if nowhere near sharp enough to win any Fashions on the Field prizes. I'd show off, but the photos are on her camera.

    So what have y'all been up to?

    [While the audio file is in Japanese, Ash has helpfully gone in later and transcribed this in both Japanese and English. It's a slightly deeper voice than Pukamon's, though still with that same youthfulness (hey he's only child level), and he still has the same accent; he does not have the same voice as Jyou's partner.]

    I get from baby I to II on my own with time and food and all that.

    I partner up, and don't evolve for twelve years. I'm eating and sleeping right, sure, but we're in very little real danger in that time.

    First real fight in twelve years, my partner gets hurt, nothing; epic fail all round.

    Second real fight in twelve years, my hurt partner's half-asleep and I evolve.

    It's not like I've researched this or anything, but I always imagined we'd both be fully conscious when I finally evolved again. DISCUSS. I know most of you are way more experienced with the whole partnered evolution thing than we are.

    Also, can I just say how much of a PAIN claws are? I can't use my iPod any more because I'm pretty sure I'm going to scratch it, and my accuracy on my oversized keyboard is way down.

    Is anyone else here watching the Rugby World Cup? [text, Japanese and English]

    I need someone to talk about it with who isn't from A) Australia (I tend to agree with most of my Aussie mates so we kind of just end up giving each other blow-by-blow recaps) or B) New Zealand (it always deteriorates into caps lock and/or screaming matches and accusations of bestiality).

    Also, has anyone heard from Wallace or Michael since Irene? I really hope they're just busy and not hurt or anything; we've had a pretty terrible storm here in Melbourne today but nothing as bad as a hurricane or cyclone.
