Happy Valentine's Day!

[velessa]

Josh sent me roses at work, awww! *^_^* Lots of bouquets were being delivered and I kind of wished I would get one, too, and then I did! That made my day. He also got me what I suppose is now our "traditional" Valentine's gift, Sharks tickets! =D And they're for a night when they're playing the Anaheim Ducks, too, so it's sure to be action-packed. I got him a case of imported beers (I guess that's not very romantic, but I was pretty sure it was something he'd like!) and a neat-looking glass penguin paperweight thing I've been hanging on to since last May when I bought it on our trip to Connecticut.

Here are the roses:




And I just realized my camera's had the wrong date on it all this time! Phooey! I changed it to 2007 now. I'll have to remember that any pictures I took that say January or February 2006 may actually be from 2007!

Sorry to randomly comment on your page which has nothing to do with your post but I am doing a dissertation on Takarazuka and I need more people to fill out my questionnaire. I was originally looking for japanese females to fill out my questionnaire now I'm looking for females of any nationality. It's only 3 questions. I would really appreciate it if you could take the time to fill it out. I just looked up people who are interested in Takarazuka on LJ. I have also joined the Takarazuka forum. Thanks in advance.

1. What are your opinions of the women who play "otokoyaku" in Takarazuka? 
1.あなたは宝塚で“男 役”を演じる女性についてどう感じますか。 




2. What are your opinions on women in theatre? do you think it is a respectable profession? if yes please state why, if no please state why. 
2.演劇で女性が演じるこ とについてどう感じますか。また、それは立派な職業だと思いますか。そう思う人も 思わない人も理由も一緒に書いてください。 




3. The "otokoyaku" are popular for being less threatening than men. For those of you who like actresses that play "otokoyaku" could you in your own words describe what it is that you like about them. For those of you who don't particulaly like "otokoyaku" can you understand why people idolise the "otokoyaku" actresses? If yes please state why. If no please state why. 
3.“男役”は 実際の男性より脅迫的でないので人気があります。女優が“男役”を演じるのが好き な人は、そのどこが好きなのかをできるだけ自分の言葉で説明してください。特に “男役”が好きでない人、あなたはなぜ人々が“男役”の女優に夢中になるかわかり ますか？はい、いいえに関わらず理由も一緒に答えてください。
