I just finished watching all the episodes of Avatar: The Last Airbender currently available on iTunes. And damn, is it great stuff! It combines the animation, color and sheer imagination of the best anime with excellent story and dialogue and great voice acting (seriously, like, Batman: The Animated Series quality). And they make effective use of cultural consultants, too, for all the martial arts and Chinese writing. From what I've seen and read, they know their stuff, and they're very obsessive. I'll have to introduce Marjorie to this show.
Unfortunately, since Mako died a few months ago, they will have to find someone new to play Iroh, a big fan favorite (in part because of Mako's top-notch performance). I wonder who they'll pick to replace him.
On a more serious note, I might be going home this weekend. Probably not for the RenFaire, though. My dad is trying to get me to reconcile with Mom, which I'm willing to do, but from what he says I'm not sure she's as open to a serious talk as I am. I'm afraid she's going to be sarcastic, nasty and resentful without really considering why I told her off, and then we will be back where we started.
Dad thinks that the longer I don't talk to her the worse it will get, and he's probably right. He also thinks that not going to Thanksgiving would really screw things (although it will be miserable, no matter what happens). But even so, I'm not going then unless Mom and I have come to some kind of understanding first, because if we are going to blow up, that would be the worst possible place and time to do it.
