I'm sure you're dying to know.
You're not?
Well, forget you - I'll tell you anyway!
Firstly, did I succeed in my mission? Yes and no.
When I got to about Rainbow, I hit a crisis and almost cancelled the trip. So once I hit A Ballads, I kinda didn't want to keep listening, because listening to Ayu when I was going to miss out on seeing her live for the millionth time was just frustrating. But after a few weeks, crisis was averted and the trip was back. Which meant I was back to my listening schedule, just with a reduced time frame - each album got 3 days now. So not quite 100 days of listening. So that "yes and no" is quite a Nigel Tufnell "yes and no".
Secondly, why didn't I keep the bLog going?
No idea on that one. I have my draft sitting there for A Song for xx. Maybe I got a bit behind and didn't quite know how to catch up? Maybe I was so focused on trip planning and learning Japanese that I forgot to update the bLog? Maybe I was actually working?
Bahahahaha we all know that wasn't it.
So I apologise to anyone that was looking for my input there. But then also, I like it when I write funny satirical bLogs, and I'm hardly going to do that with Ayu because she is my future wife and it would be rude to mock her livelihood in any way. I'm a respectful and caring young man!
Maybe I'll do something like Kissathon, where I just listen to the albums once and then make quick notes while I'm listening? Maybe? Again, it worked with Kissathon, because for every album that made me cheer there were 2 that made me "WTF?" and then another that made me go "Fuck you, Tommy Thayer!".
Either way, before then I have to do last year's WrestleMania, then this year's Royal Rumble, and then the next WrestleMania. Because I hate myself and want you to hate me even more. And before all that, I am going to finally write up about my trip to Japan. Because it was amazing and you should all be jealous like I am of the people that live in Japan or get to go there. So jealous. Seriously, even watching The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills the other day and Lisa Rinna went to Tokyo with Erika - bah gawd was I jealous. And her fucking kids got to go and hang out with Japanese people and enjoy Japan and oooooh I'm so jealous right now!
Hmmm... maybe I should try and do an Ayu-thon for her 20th Anniversary? It would be the perfect occasion to explore her catalogue and make a totally chronological playlist. But I don't have 100 days between then and now, so I could just do it like Kissathon and try and find ways to make some jokes. Most likely they'll be made at my expense, as I'll enjoy it so much and will get so annoyed when people interrupt me during a great song. But I don't have anything to write about next month - could be a good idea.
Look at this free-flowing thought, growing in front of you. I'm like a fucking tree: long goofy arms and growing up right in front of your eyes, albeit in a boring and slow fashion that you really don't want to stand around and watch. Just pass by every so often on your way to work and enjoy the beautiful leaves. Probably produce some nuts. But if you think your dog is going to pee near me, boy howdy we got a problem!
