Sorry for the delay!

Well this is going to be a dual post,


The firat part may not hold interest for some, but that is okay! Simply skip down to where you see a noticable sign that the first part is over ...........


I have to talk about This Manga series that I have been reading. It is called Fruits Basket( why that name I have no idea) But Fruba Rocks, I am totally hooked on it, almost cruelly so, as I only get to read it in bits...... It is about this young girl Torhu Honda whose parent both died, and she is not really wanted by the rest of her fanily. So these guys take her in when they find her living in a tent on their land(Tohru goes to school with some of them) The whole family that she moves in with are cursed!!! They are cursed to take on the form of the Chinese Zodiac Animals...pig, rat, sheep, dog, cat, Rabbit(my favorite character and not just becasue I am year of the rabbit either!)etc, etc. Now many of these character are at war with one another, and though they are wealthy, and handsome(albeit kinda feminine in some cases) they are very messed up. Many of these young men, are taken by young Tohru, who seems to calm them with her genuine care for them, now that they are her new family, and because she's like that kind and caring, yet not expecting anything in return. There are almost no people who are allowed to know of this curse without having their memories erased. And many parents can't stand having children cursed with this affkiction, so the children are raised by others who can handle it, and the parents have their memories erase(poor Momiji his mom rejected him(he's the bunny)) But Tohru can see past all of these to want to help and be a friend. I'm loving it!!1 What I'm not loving is Having to wait and see if Kyo Sohma( the family is all Sohma's)fall in love (kyo is doubly cursed because the cat in the chinese Zodiac was tricked by the rat(Yuki Sohma) into missing the most important feast, and after thousands of years the anger and hatred have poisioned the cat so it not only turns into a cat, but it have this horrible, side that looks like a demon, and smells of death, but Tohru, saw him and told him she still wanted to be around him, even if he had spells that turned him into the evil creature)) I want tot know but my sourses will tell me nothing!!!!
What will happen next? I will have to read, but IT ROCKS!

Second half Of blog for everyone else

This is mainly an apology for not having written in a while, I have been working(2 jobs!) Taking classes, reading for those classes, and reading a book series, trying to spend time with my family, and trying to avoid getting sick. Lee will be switching to days soon, so My life will normalize a bit for the first time in forever. I love him so much you know, I can't imagine how i ever got so lucky, to have a man like him. He is kind, giving and gentle( and he usually gives me whatever I want if it's within his grasp. On a more serious note. I look at my marrige, and at my sisters marrige, and I see that marriges do work, they do last without fighting, and giving up. I have seen far to much of that in my life. It comes down to this. If your not planning on Forever when you get married then your not ready for marrige. It is not a connvienince thing, or something to try out. Marrige involves trust, faith , and a whole heap of humble pie, sometimes second and third helpings of it. Getting married usually ends up in children , and people need to think about that, divorce hurts kids, but so does the fighting. Find away to work things out, or you teach your those horrible relationship issues that you have. I feel horrible because I have been seeing a fair bit of relationships fail lately, and I see the pain it causes people.

I believe in Beshert,
God makes one soul and breaks it into two peices putting one half in a man, and one half in a woman. When those two peices find each other they become one and it is Beshert(mean to be)

So please look for that other part of yourself, before you get married.

Love to all
Jen

*laughs* Your source is keeping you hooked up at a reasonable speed! Imagine getting it chapter by chapter for years and dying to know what was happening! (I've been in love with this story for FOUR YEARS, and it was already up to vol. 13 or so in Japanese when I discovered it.) Of course, that also means we got to speculate about it, which was lots of fun... I'm still not used to the idea that it's over. *cries* I miss my story!

And you're now basically past where the anime stops--its finale is the whole thing with Kyo's other form, although they added some bizarre stuff about Akito that makes me want to scream. >.< I can NOT deal with the second half of the last episode.

(The title is explained in vol. 1, though--it's the name of the game Tohru was left out of when she was little. ^^)
