more positive things

1. Actually saw this great comic from a gay guy about sex with trans guys yesterday but forgot to link it: http://comics.billroundy.com/?p=1116

2. Today I won a copy of the Heiresses of Russ 2013 anthology from Tor.com! Free lesbian SF for me!

3. Dinner involved Chinese-style BBQ pork, taiyaki, and mangosteen. (I went to Uwajimaya. Lots more things I want to eat are here now, but only so much room in tummy.)

4. Okay, everyone else, you win. The Summer Prince is really good. I forced my way 2/3 through it before stalling out for weeks and making grumpy comments to everyone who liked it, also known as "everyone". I determined to finish it a couple days ago, and it finally clicked. Then I started over again from the beginning. Shut up.

5. NINJA LOTL rests with impossible lightness on top of buildings!

QUIET, YOU.

Mangosteen (Was it fresh?? Can you get fresh mangosteen in the US??)! Taiyaki!

Also, yay, glad you enjoyed Summer Prince!

I personally can get fresh mangosteen in the US, yep. (I mean, not that fresh, the rind's pretty dried out, but not canned or anything.) Uwajimaya has it here, though I have no idea how widely it's distributed. There's a sign on it saying it was irradiated and thus is okay with the USDA as of 2007. $13/lb, though!

Oooooo, still better than nothing! That is pretty pricey, but otoh, I don't think I've had any since 2008....

They're small, so I think I paid $3 for two. Worth it once in a while.
