I am reconsidering my assessment of my toe as non-broken: much of the general swelling has gone down, leaving a nice big lump right at the impact point, and it's actually starting to hurt a bit when I bend it, and throb a little when I'm just sitting there not doing anything. Again, not that it changes anything other than allowing me to whine a lot online and at my mother.

No picture, because my digital camera inexplicably reboots Windows when I disconnect it, whether I disconnect it properly using the Add/Remove Hardware, or improperly by turning it off, and as I'm not wanting to take the time for it to reboot at the moment, I'm not using the camera. (The iPod doesn't do that, however.)





Yeah, ok, I'm really posting because I'm in the midst of writng a Tpop column (on Osamu Tezuka, this time) and am finding all sorts of ways to distract myself. But my toe still might be broken.

Oh, really? Sweet! I recommended it as a Further Reading site in the column, although I don't know if Matt will edit out that section or keep it in. XD

It was wonderfully handy. I also used the Flash biography on the Tezuka Productions website, and hope that they're reasonably accurate. I may be calling upon y'all in teh future, then...

The Tezuka Productions website is very accurate but extremely poorly curated-- they never update, their index is for shit, and they seem to be aiming to call everything by three separate and unrelated titles. But for biographical data, you're almost certainly totally fine. XD

And yeah, call on us anytime. The difficulty with Thrud and Tezuka is getting her to *stop* being informative. I mean, I do not read Tezuka (particularly-- some of it has happened by osmosis) and I just told you off the top of my head stuff about how the Tezuka website works...

She's convinced me that his writing is in fact probably the coolest thing ever to happen to manga, but no power in the universe seems to be able to make me like the art. Every so often I'll run across something that's a stylistic aberration, and I tend to like those.

Oh, good. :D Heh. I ahvne't actually read any, but I don't like the art style much. I should probably pick up soemthing, just to ahve done so.

...And I totally think I wrote that elsewhere in the comments.
