Jilli! Have you seen this manga on Tokyo Pop, Bizenghast? I was skimming it at B&N and it looked very Jilliesque. Look!
How about Antique Gift Shop? Not quite as obviously goth, but has some Jilli-appeal, I think.
I can beat up demons until the cows come home, and then I can beat up the cows.

Spike's Bitches 36: Did I Sully Our Good Name?
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Perfect timing, I leave for DC in a few days!!!!
We'll see if they do your dishes while they stay there, or if they just eat all the food and leave stinky boy stuff around.

Yeppers! I have the first two volumes, and the odd little art book that was just released. Anitque Gift Shop looks cute; I'll have to check it out the next time I'm in a store with a manga section.

Though I did hear tales of a study once, in my business (drug trial) that enrolled a NUN, but still made her take pregnancy tests...
Dude. I've seen Agnes of God! Nuns can get knocked up!

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
Ooooh! MUST check out Bizengast next time I'm in Kinokunya Bookshop. Gorgeous art, and a sort-of-cat sort-of-called Daniel. I'm sold. They've got masses of manga in Kinokunya, but I tend to look at it uncertainly and then hurry over to look at the Western graphic novels. I have mixed feelings about Manga. Loved From Eroika With Love, but not so much loving At Death's Door. Mostly because it struck me as being, you know, not a very good Neil Gaiman impression, dialogue-wise. Beyond that, I don't know where to start, with Manga, and there's SO MUCH OF IT. Fruits Basket and Prince of Tennis are names I've heard bandied about...?

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
Fay, I think Petshop of Horrors would be right up your alley, and I'll always be quick to recommend Bleach.

Gah. Finally heading to bed. Too much work.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
Oh, ND, I hope you got some sleep!
I, on the other hand, didn't sleep a wink last night. Combo of sleeping weird hours lately (like 3am-noon), not wanting to oversleep because I have an 8am appointment, and insomnia fairies.
My appt. is the 3rd interview at a school. Great school, only part-time job. Oh, well. It's interview practice if nothing else.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
Guess who misread the clock this morning and thought it was 8:21 so she rushed to get dressed to be out of the house no later than 8:40. I'll give you a hint. It's the same girl who now has an hour and a half to kill.

Mostly lurking...
Oh, ND. I hope you're sleeping soundly.
ChiKat, how frustrating! I hope the interview goes well.
Poor DJ! I did the opposite. I thought I could roll over and then shot out of bed when mom called wondering where I was. Oops.
Toto isn't feeling well. I just picked him up from mom, and he's puking and, well, other things. Poor guy. I think it's just stress.
