So, I've been finding lately that Harvest Moon DS is quite a time consuming game. I sit down, start tending to my crops and mining for ore and all of a sudden 5 hours appear to have wandered off somewhere and eluded me. Interesting, though highly unproductive. So yeah, I'm off for the summer now and I'm bored as hell. Anyone fancy taking me somewhere nice? I have my DS and have found myself getting strangely into the life of a virtual farmer...and not the banjo twanging kind. I've got 3 chickens, a cow and a horse, a field full of crops and two mines I've discovered on my various adventures in Mineral Town. If I could just work out how to get the miserable old man to give me his fishing rod I'd be made. That, and find the secret to having enough timber and stone to build everything I need without wandering off and hacking down trees like a psycho.
Anywhoo, I find that at the moment my days are filled with Harvest Moon, a strange addiction to buying pineapples (they're alive, they're my friends), a compulsion to play a lot of Bust a Move and watching far too many criminal dramas on Virgin on Demand...I've exhausted all the CSI and criminal minds I've been able to get my mitts on and there's nothing good on telly, and the outside world is just far too scary to venture into, especially with an overdraft the size of the third world debt shackled to my bank card. So in short, I'm bored. Bored of sitting on my bum and doing nothing but counting the calories I'm inserting into my body at various intervals. I want something to do. At least with Uni I was busy-or pretending to be for the sake of not getting kicked out of a seminar- which really is just as time consuming. I could get overtime at work, but the fast paced world of supermarket retail doesn't exactly make my pants warm with joy. ARGH!!! I'm DOOMED!
For Goddess' sake, somebody entertain me? A sock puppet, a magic can of tuna, I'd take anything right about now...
Love and Kisses
