Once again, the mighty Manna has been sidetracked by the doldrums of day to day life longer than intended between postings. Not unpleasant ones, mind. So far, the new apartment life is pretty sweet. Thanks to saving and budgeting, I’ve had money enough for the various things I’d been expecting to come out. Living with someone sympathetic to my nerdidity has such perks as chucking Transformers figures into the cart while at the grocery store and it being regarded as ‘adorable’ rather than with an eye-roll. Though I think I toed the line a bit when I spent the remainder of the trip activating Animated Megatron’s voice clips.

“WHERE IS THE ALLSPARK?”

“CRUSH THE AUTOBOTS!”

“MUWAHAHAHAHAHA!”

The last two work best in quick succession. I kind of wish they’d included “Decepticons, transform and rise up…!” as a nice counterpart to the classic “Roll Out” from Prime.

(Sorry, Mike, only found one Soundwave this trip. Next time, though…!)

Best of all of course, we adopted a kitty today. A black and brown one who we’re renaming Nia. She’s a very sweet, fluffy 1-year old.

Ah, shoot. I’m blogging about my cat. I feel my social standing slipping just a bit more…
