What Was, What Might Have Been

One weekend before I left on my vacation I took a shorter trip, going back to my old university for homecoming. I must not have paid close enough attention to the schedule, because in arriving around noon after a lengthy trip by train and bus I found the homecoming events had closed down and displays for visitors were being packed away. Managing to shrug that off, I wandered around campus by myself and dropped in on the arts library, my thoughts turning to a particular article I’d read a certain number of years ago.

2025: My Second Quarter in Anime

One more three-month block defined by new anime series showing up opened with me aware something would be different in my case. My latest long vacation was scheduled for the block’s last weeks. For the moment still lingering behind many other people and awaiting their judgments on shows, this might not have been an overwhelming difference. Still, I did work through a bit of scheduling to make sure I could finish everything I’d been thinking about seeing before leaving. I also happened in the opening weeks of the quarter to view Princess Mononoke at the movies. Perhaps this could be seen as a more genteel version of “no wonder movies are the way they are with people only willing to spend money on ‘expected quantities,’” but I did seem able to find something added by “the theatrical presentation.”

When it comes to vacations I do have to admit to remaining happy to let my parents arrange things and go along with them. When they looked into a cruise that would travel up the coast of Norway and return to its starting point via Scotland, I agreed to join them. Some of the ports of call were now familiar, but we were going further north than before, over the Arctic Circle and all the way to a tourist spot called North Cape.

We're having to rebuild the search server again (previously, previously). It will take a few days to reindex all the content.

Meanwhile search services should be running, but probably returning no results or incomplete results for most queries.
