    November 27, 2007 by CJ Marsicano

    reina_t_1111: Hey Ceej.
    minimoniotaku: Hi Reina.
    reina_t_1111: A lot of excitement this past weekend, huh?
    minimoniotaku: I think I know what you’re referring to.
    reina_t_1111: You mean Nono having her little UltraTsuji on Monday morning?
    minimoniotaku: Yeah, that was some nice news for once.
    reina_t_1111: Tell me about it. I heard about Casey from Hawthorne Heights dying in his sleep. HH aren’t having the greatest year, are they?
    minimoniotaku: No, they’re not.
    reina_t_1111: I heard he had asthma, that might have had something to do with it.
    minimoniotaku: It’s likely. No one knows what the cause was outside of “anything illegal” being ruled out.
    reina_t_1111: What a shame. I know you liked their last album.
    minimoniotaku: Yeah, and I missed them on Warped Tour this year, I should really be kicking myself now.
    reina_t_1111: Did you ever listen to Quiet Riot when you were younger?
    minimoniotaku: Good lord, ancient history! I have enough grey hairs as it is!!
    reina_t_1111: Shaddap, Richard Gere has grey hair and the girls still want him.
    reina_t_1111: Your pal Mike Watt has grey hair and he’s still a badass, same thing with your hero Rollins.
    minimoniotaku: Why’d you bring up Quiet Riot?
    reina_t_1111: Their lead singer was found dead last night.
    minimoniotaku: Damn. How old and what from?
    reina_t_1111: 52, and they don’t know yet.
    minimoniotaku: I don’t think Rock & Roll Heaven needed any hair metal musicians that badly.
    reina_t_1111: CJ!!!!!!! That was mean! :(
    minimoniotaku: I kid.
    reina_t_1111: If I go through your old record albums, will I find a copy of Metal Health amongst all your Black Flag and Minutemen albums?
    minimoniotaku: Guilty as charged. Condition Critical is there too.
    reina_t_1111: Haha.
    minimoniotaku: Shaddap, or I’ll come over there and spank you.
    reina_t_1111: Promises, promises. Did you see this week’s HaroMoni?
    minimoniotaku: I’ve hardly been watching ANY TV lately. The writing, remember?
    reina_t_1111: Phew.
    minimoniotaku: What’s the sigh of relief for?
    reina_t_1111: I was so afraid that you were going to bitch me out for what I did on this week’s episode.
    minimoniotaku: What are you talking about, Rei?
    reina_t_1111: The auditions for that cat character on Koharu’s anime. They had us do Whippets when we were doing our auditions for the voiceover role.
    minimoniotaku: Oh that. I’m not even worried. It was just for that instance, right?
    reina_t_1111: Yeah.
    minimoniotaku: Reina, you’re not the first person who’s done helium and immediately started talking like Alvin & The Chipmunks, don’t even sweat it.
    reina_t_1111: Yeah, but look at this screen cap from the episode that’s already online:

    reina_t_1111: I look like I’m going to hurl. Upchuck. Call Ralph on the porcelain phone.
    minimoniotaku: *hugs*
    reina_t_1111: Thanks, hun.
    minimoniotaku: Someday you’ll look back on that picture and laugh.
    reina_t_1111: Am I getting too old for the cat ears?
    minimoniotaku: No, but I’m too young to be getting junk mail from goddamn AARP!
    reina_t_1111: AARP?! But you’re only 22 years older than I am! You make it sound like they think you graduated Bedrock High School in the same class as Keith Richards.
    minimoniotaku: Very funny.
    reina_t_1111: I try. ;)
