perseid, I have LOST about 95% of all my DBSK music. Please tell me that you still have most of their albums somewhere? All the versions of Proud, Lovin' You and every other song barring their latest singles are all gone. There may have been some rage and swearing on my part. Please let me know as soon as possible.

On the fandom front; have watched a few episodes of Battle Star Galactica and Horatio Hornblower. The former is shiny, well executed and very interesting; the latter makes me smile because it has battle ships, men in uniforms and adventure. However, neither has caught my attention, that is, while I can appreciate both I can't gather any fan-ish glee about them.

I'm not sure whether I'm reading too much into it since I'm only half way through season 1 of BSG but I honestly believe it is going to be one of those series that at the end will burn me, and I’ll be horribly bitter every time I hear it being mentioned in my presence. Also, despite the shiny and the involving story I find myself hating most of the cast, and I can’t like a series without liking the characters. I’ll give the series till the end of season 1 to capture my attention, if it still hasn’t done so I think I shall give BSG a pass.

On the neurotic front; I'm in the process of cataloguing my book/manga/magazine collection. I’m putting everything into fiction/non-fiction piles, organising the former by surname and the latter by subject matter. Manga is a bit tricky as providing a defined genre for any of my titles is a bit tricky. I mean what section would you put Hikaru no Go under? One day I’ll have my colour coded book shelf.
