Alrighty. So I rewatched the series finale of Boston Legal, and I think it's finally starting to set in that it's over.. I won't be able to look forward to new episodes to brighten up my Monday nights. *sighs* I want the first 4 seasons on DVD for Christmas, and the 5th whenever that's out. Just so I can say I've done it.. OMGTHEYDIDIT! It came across as a bit pandering to the fans, but Denny and Alan got fucking MARRIED, ON THE FUCKING SCREEN ON PRIMETIME TELEVISION. IN AMERICA -- technically they got married in Canada, but it's American television. I can't say I've ever been much of a Denny/Alan supporter in the romantic sense, but it's a great way for the series to go out on the same controversial path it came in on.
And much <3 for Jerry, who seemed to be getting better at handling his Asperger's this season. So wish they'd continue the series, if for no other reason than to see Jerry and Denny both getting better grips on their conditions. |

CANDY!! :D Good grief, I spend most of the day yesterday sick as a dog, then spent half the night eating candy. Miserable weekend will most likely be miserable. But I've got more candy to eat, so it'll at least be sugar-buzzed. Nice way to start off NaNoWriMo tonight.
And as an aside.. /me sexes Aleveria. I've got Shyl to play too, so I really don't have anymore reason to log on Realms of Kaos at all once my stuff sells and the few things I'm keeping are lvl 25 again. But I told him I'd give it a chance to rekindle my interest, and going back on my word would be really lame of me, so I'm going to see how long it takes to get me to at least keep RoK on the computer for RP purposes.
Lots of bugs when RoK came back up, but they're assuring us it's all being worked on (lol yeah right) so no one's bitching too much about it. The login server's crap, ditto with trying to delete a character -- have to get admins to do that for you -- and them trying to fix things crashes the server when they're doing it. Don't get me wrong, Aleveria does have bugs of its own, but it didn't have a months downtime and then come back with 10x the bugs it had before the downtime.
As a further aside.. I fucking hate my mother. I'm not going to be a damned hermit if you get me a computer for Christmas, she knows that as well as I do since I could be a fucking hermit without a computer if I had friends I was actually allowed to call on the damned phone. Lets completely set aside the fact that Billy had his own computer and they let him be a hermit. In fact, they let Billy do a lot of the shit they won't let me do, like have friends and get a job.
And apparently I'm not allowed to leave my heater on low when I'm not in my room. WTF, they leave their heater on when they aren't in their room. I should know, I'm the one that has to run to turn it the fuck off when one of the dogs knocks it over because the one they've got in their room doesn't shut off automatically like mine does. If it's not allowed to be on unattended, I'm just going to turn it off when I go to bed. And when I end up with fucking pneumonia because of it, I'm going to very calmly remind then that my heater can't be on when it's unattended, and I'm not attending it when I'm asleep.
But NaNo starts tomorrow, so yay! |

(C&P from a bulletin on my MySpace last night, just too lazy to post it here then.)
It just occurred to me that I'm fucking miserable. I sit in front of the computer from 6:30am to 10pm or so, then I go sit in my room and stare at the ceiling until I finally say fuck it and go to sleep somewhere around midnight. Sometimes I draw instead of stare, or read a book or watch a movie or play a game on my NDS, but that's pretty much my entire schedule.
And what do I have to show for the last eight years?
I managed to fall for my best friend, my security blanket is some guy I haven't even known a year, and I'm honestly bored with life. I don't want to wonder if death would be anymore fun, because if it turned out that it wasn't there wouldn't be a way to go back to living, but I can't help but feel that curiosity gnawing at the back of my mind.
This isn't really normal for me. I've never really wanted to die, and here I am trying to force myself to not think about it. Hell, this is the first time I've ever really thought about death -- my own death in particular -- without it being prompted by someone or something.

 This thing is so CUTE. No idea what prompted the thought, cause I really don't watch a lot of TV. Missed the WhoBob WhatPants? thing last night, which really blows. World of Warcraft is taking all day to download a 1.2gb patch, and since I can't play until the patch is downloaded that's sort of out of the question.
Played a little bit of Pokemon Platinum this morning. My emulator crashes if I leave the sound on--something I found out the hard way after losing an hour of progress because I forgot to save. Oh well, not the end of the world. YesAsia has the game for $50, and of course I have to realize this when I actually have that much to spend on a game with ~$5 shipping. I wouldn't understand much of it at all, but it'd be nice to be able to play it.
It'd also be cheaper and without the shipping fee if I waited for the US version.. Meh, if they announce when it'll be out in the US before the end of the year I'll wait, otherwise I'll probably end up bumming my brother's bank card to buy it. |

So apparently I can't do anything right.
Mom sent me to the store yesterday to get her two packs of cigarettes and a diet Coke. Okay, I need a pack of gum anyways, so I'll grab $5 of my money so I don't have to use her cash to buy my stuff. Get to the store, get her diet Coke and and cigarettes, clerk cards me and then starts fucking hitting on me. Dude was creeping me out, so I just paid for mom's stuff and went out the door. Got all the way back to my house before I realized that I didn't buy my gum.
Wasn't about to go back though, so I took mom's stuff up to her and she's all "you're gonna have to go back to the store" at me. So I say "uhh.. that depends, are you coming with me?" and start to tell her why I don't want to go back down there myself. She starts yelling at me like I'm lying about this, then goes on this tirade about how I had to have started it. WTF woman? I don't even like guys my own age, let alone guys your age or older who have nothing better to do than hit on teenage girls.
So I'm just like "whatever bitch, go get your own stuff" (only not really) and go back to the computer. Dad comes home and I ask him to go to the store for mom cause the dude working today is a creep. Crisis averted; mom got what she needed, I didn't have to go back down there and everyone's happy. Sort of anyways, mom still bitched at me this morning over it, so I'm not too happy about that. But shit happens.
Then this morning, she wanted me to make and print a sign for her to put in windows for open house tonight at the school she works for. Fine and dandy, any excuse to get to play with my new toy. So I open up MS Word, make up this page that says what she wants it to say in 22pt font--which is rather large, even on a 17" screen. I print out the four copies she wants, then she comes in to pick them up and says "I said big words" like it's my fault the font doesn't look as big on the paper as it did on the screen.
Parents these days. >. |

I HIT THE $1000 AT BINGO!!! :D
Someone else hit too, so I had to split it, and go halves with mom. Gave $20 to the first person to congratulate me as a tradition, $20 on instants and still walked out of there with $480! :D |

I'm going to register to vote this year. I usually hate politics, but I can't let my (now perfectly legal) vote go to waste if it might be the vote that puts Barack Obama in the White House. Because I don't want another four years of George Bush's kind of politics.
Wish me luck. :\ |

I'm going to be putting everything of mine on Realms of Kaos up for auction when the server comes back online. I got caught up in the whole "you need this and that" when I was just a newbie, and now it's getting to the point that I'm tired of it. So I'm going to sell off the stuff that I ended up with because of that logic, take the money and start over.
Kind of like the last six months didn't happen, only instead of cutting ties with the whole three people I've gotten to be friends with through RoK, I'm going back to being a solo thief and keeping my friends. Then when Alaraose is back to being a brigand, I'm gonna level an elder or a priest. No idea which yet.. both will get done eventually, just dunno what I wanna do first.
So heh, someone buy my crap if you play RoK. |

We did get our merge. Not really all it's cracked up to be; there's a 1k toll to change sides, so most people have just been bringing gear over to the side they want to stay on and not jumping back and forth. I brought my gear over; my guards or priest now run around in 100 ac (DA, turq, crested), with another heavy armor class (usually my priest behind a guard) in 93 ac running with me. Still want my brill BoM though, goddamn Tanjir being down all the time.
Tormented is going to start running Tanjir's OADs. I feel a little guilty knowing I'll be leading them with knowledge I've gained from my time with GoD, but then I remember I left them because of drama related to these things and I stop feeling as guilty. Kinda feel bad that I'm going back on my word to Moonie by leading the only ferrum run Tormented has gone on so far, but Oster doesn't pay enough attention to where he's going for it to matter and Keith's already been on the run with GoD.
I'm gonna take good, long looks at the OAD maps I've still got access to from GoD, then I'm going to remove the alt that's keeping me a member and tell them to stop considering me a member. I have no intention of coming back, there's no reason for me to still be considered a member of the clan. Will have to hand over my keys to the clan bank too as soon as I find them. But meh, we'll be getting one going for Tormented soon enough that it won't matter anyways.
Need to talk to one of the leaders to get Tormented's official policy on OADs. Or, more specifically, who/what decides who gets them and how they keep track of who has what. That confused me on the ferrum run, so I want a clear picture before I go on another one. Wonder if I can drum up the interest in a koba run when the server's back up, I need one for my ninja and I'm sure a few other people would be interested in having them. |

Soo.. events on Realms of Kaos. For those of you who are unfamiliar with the subject; someone on the event staff broadcasts about what event they're going to run, then you've got 10-15min to prepare (get potions/mana if it's allowed, feed and water yourself if staff said they won't do it, make sure you've got all your gear, etc) before they call for warps to the arena it's being held in. The class of choice for events is usually slayer, though priests, elders, ninjas and my brigand are common enough. Slayer is preferred though, as you can hide, backstab someone for 4x your normal damage, and then hide again so no one can find you.
Which is the problem. Hidden characters have to be searched out, orcs/saurians (90% of the slayer population) can't find themselves in the middle of the goddamn desert at noon. So everyone who can hide just hides, and the people who can't kill other people who can't hide because searching wastes an action and you kind of need those to fight or heal. And people still wonder why slayers are the only ones who win anything? Really now..
Anyways, I got into a bit of a talk with one of the event staff about this after dying, which I did right as he was broadcasting for elims (10 people backstabbing my poor ninja.. yeah, he's going down hard, even with 23 agi [22 normal +1 with a sapphire pot] + natural ninja dodge). Just figured I'd share the somewhat funny.
( Long ass c&p is long )
I didn't really page him because he'd have taken it to an admin or someone else on the event staff and I'd have been event blocked for bad sportsmanship, but it would have been halarious. |
