Went to Seattle today to check out a big Japanese shopping center there... Uwajimoto's? I think? Anyway it was good. The majority of the place was a huge Japanese grocery, but there was also a food center and a book and music shop. Very extensive; I found Choco-Baby, which I'd gotten to try at Fanime back in '08 and fell in love with. I'm well stocked on instant soups and Japanese snacks now, though I held back on spending as much as I wanted. Apparently every person in the house has their own soy sauce bottle, which I think is silly and we should just share, but hey if they don't want to I might as well have my own. There was also a lot of intriguing "learning Japanese" books, but it's hard to know at a glance which of those'll be actually useful. But man that manga collection is ridiculous. They're up to volume 54 of One Piece over there, apparently. Yeesh.

While I was there, I just kept thinking, "man, I'm sure there are a million things I should think to buy here, I just can't remember any of it..." but it matters not, for I still got a good haul. Yaaaaay!

Aaaaaand no there's no real substance to this post. XI opens in four days augh gotta get those icons done...
