Ru and Eien's Excellent Adventure
Apr. 15th, 2007 12:06 amToday was an awesome day. Every year in the spring, Eien-chan and I make a point of taking a trip to Chapel Hill and doing some exploring. We took this yearly trip today, and it was delightful. ^_^ About the only real setback was that the place we wanted to eat lunch at was closed on Saturdays at lunch time (which boggles the mind), so we had to find an alternative. We ended up at a place called Ham's, which I discovered makes an awesome salmon wrap. So so tasty.
And, I was very excited by the fact that I found the last "Please Save My Earth" manga in our wanderings, at a comic book store that opened since the last time we were there. We saw some interesting things there, including what appeared to be a comic about a teddy bear mob boss and something I think![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
hearsawho might be interested in--a CSI comic. I also found some out-of-print books that I've been looking for at a used bookstore, and a CD I've been looking for at a music store we always make a point of going to every time we take the trip.
I also discovered today that there is such thing as a Serenity RPG. I should probably finish Firefly first, but I'd love to get some people together and try playing it. ^_^;
And, of course, seeing as I'm a plant goob, we took a trip to the Coker Arboretum on UNC's campus. Despite the frost we had last week, it was still very lovely, with lots of Spanish bluebells and azaleas and a big pretty ginkgo. Of course, Eien-chan had to deal with me squeeing randomly at plants and breaking off to go look at something that caught my eye.
All in all, it was a good day. ^_^ Although now I need to find a new manga series to read. I'm open to suggestions, if anyone has any. While I generally go for things that have at least some degree of sci-fi/fantasy included, it's not a requirement. As long as it has an interesting and well-written story and characters you can sink your teeth into, I'm good. Mmm, tasty characters.
