robotech_masterJust had my friend Joe Moore over for a few hours. Watched an episode of Ninpuu Sentai Hurricangers, an episode of Machine Robo Rescue, then four episodes of Kamen Rider 555, which Joe seemed to enjoy. After that, I showed him a humor video called "Your Name Here" that I downloaded from the Internet Archive, the trailer for an anime called Beyond the Clouds, and a couple episodes of The Animatrix. He's going to get to see Matrix Reloaded on Monday, so I figured he'd want to be ready for it.
Joe asked me about the possibility of his moving into the guest room. I really wasn't sure what to say to that, so I hastily demurred, saying that I really wanted to keep the room as a guest room to have guests overnight. In truth, I suppose I really ought to consider his offer. It's not like I'm going to have houseguests even 1% of the time, after all...and it might well be good to have a second resident to help with the rent—not to mention having Joe around when I wanted to show him some anime or whatever.
But on the other hand, I'm used to living alone. I like having this space to myself, being able to do what I want without having to worry about other people. I like knowing that if I want to, I can do pretty much anything I want—even lounge around the apartment buck naked if I feel like it as long as I keep the shades down and the curtains drawn. And as nice as this place is, I'm not sure it could stay that way for long if Joe moved in. The apartment's in good shape now, as the one slob who lives in it can manage to force himself to keep it looking nice. But if it had two in it? That might just be too much.
Anyway, Joe's headed on out now to get ready for work, and I really should go and do the laundry.
