When it rains, it pours, doesn't it? My sympathies. I just had a really crappy week: I missed a deadline, missed two trains because the railroad had some issues, my guinea pig is sick and the vet doesn't know how to help her and a lot of minor misfortunes.

For me Death Note is like a good detective novel - it's all about the chase. That's probably why I never really got into the fandom. I could not care less about the pairings and I don't see room for another cat and mouse game.
