Well first off, August 15TH is my Zinnian/Alexander character's birthday. If I was going by the 'canonical' birthday year for him, he'd be 27 years-old. I think if was 2004 when I created him, back when just_picture_me and I were talking almost daily. I still don't really know what became of her, she moved and then every online activity of hers stopped. I last got a text-message from her in late October 2007, before the move/number change. Anyway; Zinnian is a vampire with one blue eye & one green eye, a bad haircut, and a big nose. Some facts I never really stated before is that he is 1/4 Brazilian, raised by his Aunt Lily, and is from rural British Columbia--Victoria Island actually. I love how ahnjehleehn draws him, by the way.

Well I haven't been posting as there really isn't much point to it. In general I don't even think there is much point to me though.
Again I have been debating deleting my accounts. I even went into the screen to deactivate, and almost did so. There wasn't the vomiting or heartpounding or crying that I did when I killed Lorel off, just a numbness. [Hell, I couldn't even bring myself to write her even dying. I know how it happened, but I left it out, and just wrote the crash & fall. I typed it up fast on the day of and then just sat huddled at my desk going over, and over again what options I had, and trying to think of just some way to keep her alive, but to not kill her emotionally. To not condemn her, but killing her off (in an accident, while she believed in things) was the best off all horrible options.] But deactivating my accounts seems to be giving in to what it feels like is what most want. I want to exist, but...Well one of my few reasons for not deleting my accounts is not not block anyone out. I never said I don't want anything to do with anyone, and I have not Blocked, filtered, or removed anyone. Though I won't talk to anyone, since it just leads to being ignored, false words, being yelled at, removal, or Blocking. And I won't ask anyone to talk for me, because I'm not that kind of person, and it will just have the same results, and I don't want to cause someone else to be crap too. I also don't want me deactivation to be a reason for people to delete the threads & posts I did either. I used to check to see that they hadn't been, but now I'm too terrified. But though I won't deactivate, I also don't think I'll be about after the next week.

But as for what I've been up to, well I had my orthopedic surgeon appointment, had to change physiotherapists, went to the Kentville courthouse museum, got Sea Monkeys, got the True Ending & Axe Ending in "9 Hours, 9 Persons, 9 Doors", and cleaned my room.

---

The appointment didn't go well. The doctor seemed to look down on me as I was unemployed, and to be more interested in if I had a job than my knee. The thing with my mother must be in my medical records, so I had to explain it after vague responses just lead to more questions. He did refer me off for an MRI though, so at least there is that. It could be up to 6 months until I have it though :/ (I got in for one in a few days when I had that concussion though).

---

Patrick got a placement in Halifax so he had to leave Soldiers' Memorial Hospital. So my last appointment was with one of the other physiotherapists. The appointment went really well and she was nice & alright to talk to (though not as much as Pat). We went over things and tried ultrasound & acupuncture, and I was relieved that it seemed like things were at least going to be all right with it. I was at first quite upset that I was having to switch, and that Pat never mentioned his leaving until my last appointment with him. I really dreaded having to start over again after about 6 sessions. Anyway she told me she was going to check-up on me a few days after, to see if the acupuncture helped and if not to see if it would be best to wait until my MRI since no-one really knows just what is wrong until then. She called and I told her that as the weekend was hella damp that I had a lot of pain with it so I couldn't tell if it had helped or not. So we planned on another session after the Exhibition is over (I didn't know what day I wad going). ...Well this morning she just left a voicemail message saying that as it isn't helping much (it is helping though) that I probably should just have my files discharged. Like what the fuck? We just spoke on Monday, and things were fine, and now I'm expected to decide to leave treatment, not even wait until my MRI, but to discharge myself from physiotherapy. So there again goes my sense of relief/stability & trust. I waited until they closed and did my best to leave a calm message pretty much asking "why?". I think this is going to be a 'phone tag' situation since I'm going away tomorrow and don't want the impending telephone call to ruin my day. It is probably because since they are now down a physiotherapist, that they are trying to cut-down on patients. But it is so 'out of the blue' (not Boy Blue) that it is upsetting. Like again; we spoke not even 3 days ago :/

The daytrip to Kentvile was lovely. It was really cold & rainy that morning, but it had swttled by the time we left the museum. The courthouse was a mix of Victorian/Edwardian, mystery, Canadian history, Phoenix Wright (not phoneix_wright), Nova Scotia, and such wonderful. My favourite part was the the hidden pictures in the faux wood grain done by Brian Forsyth (not Gideon Forsyth**). The pictures I took can be found {HERE} and {HERE} (Facebook now allows more than 200 pictures per Album, but after 200 it splits into their ridiculously slow 'load more' thing, and also makes editing the album glitchy).

Also while in Kentville we stopped into R D Chisholm Limited (which I've called a Pharmasave before ^^;) and they were having a save on toys. One of the items was 'discounted for quick sale' kits of Sea Monkeys. And I bought one. I also bought "Five Minute Mysteries" by Ken Weber, a pack of 'Multicultural' Crayola markers (various skin tones), and a Nova Scotia shotglass (I collect shotglasses!). They had a book on Sir Isaac Brock [who(m) I love♥♥♥♥) but I didn't want to take from my TELUS bill money, so I called The Inside Story (bookstore in Greenwood) and ordered it in (I'll have to pick it up next week though).

And again on Sea Monkeys: I started them on the 28TH of July and now it is Day #20 and they are doing ridiculously well. They are getting huge! There is one that sometimes follows me along the tank like some fish do, and I've named them/it 'Julius'. I think they are growing the grasper things so I think Julius might be a male. Male Sea Monkeys have little appendages by their faces which they use for fighting & mating (mine aren't old enough for that yet!). Also Julius is now larger than the rest (I've got 3 large ones, a few mid-size, and some tiny babies). ...I was thinking of Orange Julius at the time and not Caesar (though somewhat relatedly I also love Cassius Dio). Orange Julius products are now being sold at the nearest Dairy Queen, though sadly not my favoutite kind which is the Pineapple Julius (with a banana).




I've been documenting them because I promised @Bostonbookworm, and posting rambling videos to YouTube & pictures to Photobucket. I haven't uploaded a bunch of videos, but I've got up to Day #14 on Photobucket. I'll upload them when I can be assed to go seriously on my Shaglehod next, because last time I was I had to wait for them to convert to .AVI (my camera saves video in ridiculously huge file sized .MOVs) with SUPER© (I also use AllToAVI). I haven't yet increased their volume or combined some with Windows MovieMaker.

The album is here (sub albums mostly, but the main has the scanned instructions):

My YouTube also has a video of Lydia hunting a housefly, and a video of a type of caterpillar we've not seen before.

Have I mentioned enough how much I love Snake? I finally finished the True Ending, and before I started the Axe Ending (which was messed and Junpei's face at the bracelets is what creeped me out more than the rest D: ) I replayed a bunch of the rooms and oh gawh the things I didn't examine before/conversations I missed XD Like examining lights, or the shadow puzzle in the Casino! There is a part where you have to shine two lights through two ornaments to make a club, spade, and a heart. Well if you only turn one on and then examine it, Junpei states that it looks like "A woman...something with a pointy tip...an upside-down butt... Hm...". Snake is all taken aback and after Junpei repeats himself, Snakes says "It sounds like a rather sensual shadow-play.". Also he comments that Junpei tends to talk to himself a lot XD Junpei's train of thought with things too is hilarious. The 1st Class Cabin is my favourite room, and I wish someone would draw me a picture of Junpei on Snake's shoulders while they dump the vase of water over Seven's head.--I tried, but just in "myNotebook: Tan"...

I also somewhat ship Junpei/Clover though Jumpy/Kanny is adorable, I don't care for Zero!Akane/Junpei. I rarely ship pairings in things, but the 'accidental' hand-touching in the Library and the trust & comfort scenes make me prefer Junpei/Clover. Though Lotus/Seven is great & quite canonical XD

I also really am poor at sudokus -___-
