I got it. I'll play Peggle instead. That actually might be able to pull my brain away from it...

I think it did a good job of keeping the squirrels away, though. I'm proud of what it accomplished in its life.

But that's fine, I guess. If the south doesn't want to care about the song, the northerners who are so far north they're just a few hours from the Canadian border will care. And put its full length on the radio.

Sadly the conspiracy theory was basically correct because OF COURSE Sho Aikawa would use period-accurate kanji in the only book he wrote that I'm likely to ever read.

I was just silent for a few seconds, then laughed and said "do you know about the--" and she interrupted me and immediately said yes. Mercifully, she did know about the.

I checked all the ones I was struggling with, and it turns out every last one of them was just a kyuujitai variant, which I was totally unaware of since Japan had been moving away from them since 1946.

Still, you taught me about something else I didn't know with the ryakuji, so thanks for that!

oh no i think it might be 掴. I'm so dead, reading this book is even more beyond me than I already thought it was gonna be. Except I'm unfortunately motivated enough to transform it into a very long, very painful learning experience.

This is basically the nightmare I was afraid of, though, if they're all just kyuujitai and I quit learning Chinese after a semester (AND IT PROBABLY WOULDN'T HAVE HELPED EITHER BECAUSE WE WERE LEARNING SIMPLIFIED CHINESE)

From looking at some more examples on wikipedia, I think ONE might be? But the rest are probably just something obvious I keep overlooking.

(This is not something I actually believe. My brain is just panicking.)
