I was rather upset when the Doctor didn't light the torch.

After that, I stopped caring.

So I bought myself a car today. Up front, in cash.

I drove up to Roanoke to get it with my family.

She's alllllll mine.

BAM

She's a 1990 Miata, she's got a rollbar, brand new tires, suspension, brakes... She's got an adjusted cam so she sounds FIERCE, she has fingernail-breaker doorhandles, she has pop up headlights, a radio/CD player/Audio Input and AC...

We're talking like, a really, really quality car.

Here are some more pictures.

Guys, here's the best part.

she only cost $1900.

Right now, I'm stuck between driving my mum's '94 Pontiac Grand Prix and my sister's '98 Ford Windstar to school. They're old cars, they both have a lot of problems and I'd much rather be driving my dad's '07 Mercury Milan, buuut if I had things my way and I was super rich, I'd probably get Pontiac Vibe or something like it. Something smaller than the mini van and a stick shift so I don't have to pay so much for gas.

Our family had a pontiac vibe once. It was a really good car, it's engine gave out around 300k miles.

As for what I drive now, nothing. Occasionally the family van or the smartcar, but I want a miata really bad, I mean, I have three months and I get my license, and I wanna be able to cruise around in what I think is one of the sexiest cars ever. XD

So, I'm not sure if we have one of these, but I figure we need a car topic.

I'm in love with the Mazda Miata (and I'm actually looking to buy one, but with no luck. The only one I can afford is in SoCal.  :( )

So, feel free to talk about your dream cars and cars you like and don't like and etc.

That's quite a predicament. It's tough when parents are so overprotective that they will go to such measures as to call the cops on their child's boyfriend as if they don't care about their happiness.

You're 18, right? I don't know how old Mia is but if she's at least 18 as well, then I don't think her father will have any authority to get the police involved if she's a consenting adult--even if he is a judge. If she's not 18 yet, I guess my best advice would be to still go out in secret until she does turn 18.

I can't say that I know her father's personality. He might be the type to kick her out once she turns 18 if she chooses to stay with you. But it definitely sucks when family can interfere so.

I've decided not to bother even trying to talk to her until she's 18, and even then, only if she tries to contact me first.

I really don't want to be arrested.

So, I figure I can drum up some listeners here too (since I know you guys love me so much <3)

I have a radio show every Sunday from 11-2 PM EST, and I'd love if any of you would listen in. :D

You can find it here.

I'm on tomorrow, so tune in?

I'll try to stay around for a while this time. I mean, other than my job (which has been slow recently) I don't have much else going on other than therapy.

So you can expect to see me here. *Moves to other topics before spam sets in*

It's been a while, hasn't it? Last time I posted was once or twice back in November of last year, and before that it was late October.

I kinda missed this place.  ;)

I'm not sure if any of you know that I was in a relationship for the past year, I'm pretty sure I told you all about Mia.

Well, it started back in June last year. The first of June. We met through the internet (she sent me a sweet anonymous message on Tumblr) and started talking on AIM. This continued for about two months and we eventually swapped phone numbers.

We started texting each other during our free time, sometimes staying up until 4 or 5 AM talking about nothing in particular and feeling absolutely wonderful.

We eventually started calling each other. Towards the end of the summer, to help her with her reading assignment, we even read Lord of the Flies together and loved it. We once read all throughout the night until 9 in the morning.

Time went by and she started going back to school, we talked all the time (though not as late) and even started skyping regularly around September. When November rolled around and I went to Nekocon and ran into my evil Ex Alex she was there to cheer me up and everything.

Christmas rolled around and we got each other presents. She wrote me a letter, knit me a scarf... I got her a stuffed cat and made her two bracelets. We stayed up until midnight on Christmas eve so we could open our presents together. The night was full of "I love you"s and actual crying.

New Years came up quick and while she was at her friend's house for a New Years party we had our first "kiss" is wasn't typing "*kiss*" on a text. No, we leaned into the webcam and sorta actually kissed. It felt more real than any kiss I'd ever had before.

Things kept going, and for a short while during January I thought I could visit her during the summer, but that was shot down by her parents. Her dad to be exact.

This is where the trouble starts.

We started fighting just a little, over the next five months things were amazing, but also tinged with little bits of "I can't see you for a long time." Still, things never seemed horrible at all.

We would skype as she did her homework, we'd cuddle and call at night and in the mornings before she went to school.

Well, her dad didn't like that I wasn't in college or employed at the time... And one day, while we were talking, she stopped replying.

I got a message from her dad saying that if I ever talked to her again he would call the police on me.

Her father is a judge. I wasn't going to argue with him.

We never really got any closure after that.

That's how my 11 month, 2 week relationship came to an end.

It's been two months and three days since I had to stop talking to her.

I'm clinically depressed, I've had thoughts of dying, and I have panic attacks when I think too much about her.

I may not be around here much anymore guys, but you're all still my second family. I just thought you all should know.

I miss her so much.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH

It's not fair! I did nothing wrong and why did this happen to me?!

It's not worth it, really, she was jsut a girl, but I gave a year of my life to her only to have her parents say I can never talk to her again or they'd call the police and it's just not FAIIIIIIIIIIR.

HSotD was Gainax being a whore and cashing in on a really lame  trend, and just generally being low quality Gainax.

What happened to the good old day when story, animation, and entertainment were on the same page as the sex appeal?

Now all you get from them is crap like HSotD.

We need more stuff like FLCL, NGE, TTGL, and P&SwG.

Tl;dr, HSotD sucked.

No offense, but it sounds to me like you're basing Gainax's recent quality on only one point in sample space. That's statistically useless when making sense of trends.

Correction, Panty and Stocking with Garterbelt is just as recent as HSotD if I remember correctly, either a year older or a year newer.

I just felt HSotD was Gainax doing like they do with trends, cashing in because they know people will watch it, then doing a sub-par job.

They did it with KareKano.
