I'm sick of fighting with the current Ultimate Plus event in FFRK, so here, have a bit of fic.

Echo, Lunar Silver Star Story, G, spoilers everywhere, 100 words. The boy reminds him of Dyne. For

Rina vs Bak'laag is an endless battle, one I fight bravely every year. Let's see how I did this year! (If you previously saw this post and it disappeared, it's because I did copy-paste poorly and lost the original and grrrr. ANYWAY ( Read more... )

Hey, if you like hidden object games, or think you might like to try some, the current Humble Mobile Bundle is for PC, Mac, and mobile and contains 8 hidden object games by Artifex Mundi, which is one of the big names, and whose games I have liked quite a bit, for a very reasonable price! (o backlog progress, I loved you while I had you, and now I ( Read more... )

Hey, let's talk about fun stuff. A blog I used to follow, the Border House, had a weekly feature called "What Are You Playing Wednesday" (similar to Rock, Paper, Shotgun's weekend what-are-we-playing thread) so let's do that. It'll distract me from The World At Large and also the fact that I am so goddamn emotionally compromised by the first ( Read more... )

Man, I had such plans for things I was going to do with my holiday weekend, and then Sunday was the day of the horrendous migraine and I pretty much lost all of it, with the result that I spent yesterday racing to get things done that I'd meant to spread out over the weekend. Seven loads of laundry, some big cooking projects, and a housecleaning ( Read more... )

I have a hard time walking away from media of any kind. I can only think of two books in the last six years that I've actively abandoned, vs. put down and picked up later because the moment wasn't right for them then. I don't like to mark games as "never going to finish" on Backloggery; I don't like to walk away from TV shows I've enjoyed ( Read more... )

It has been a very busy week. I think I've had stuff going on every night except Monday. I wanted to go to the pool with my shiny new pool pass over the weekend, but it was lightning storms on Saturday and too chilly on Sunday. We spent Sunday doing yard work (where by "we" I mostly mean "Paladin"), and then sat around reading books while ( Read more... )

It is snowing. There was actualfax snow on the ground this morning when I got up. why, it is April, I want springtime. My poor little hyacinths and tulips and amaryllis and other things that were starting to grow (the ones that the fucking moles didn't eat, ugh) had started to grow, and I can see the little hyacinth buds, and then this morning ( Read more... )

Well, I did in fact get sprung from physical therapy last Monday, and my shoulder has been reasonably well behaved. I've also all of a sudden been actually working out, and functioning like a semi acceptable adult all around, which is weird and unusual and I am side-eying it and thinking about poking it with a stick because it's very weird. (In ( Read more... )

I am once again finding myself really grateful for public sector employment, in that the combination of Lincoln's Birthday and Presidents Day has aligned to provide me with a four-day weekend when the forecast was particularly nasty, and thus I have gotten to spend three very cold days indoors bundled up in blankets and covered in cats, rather than ( Read more... )
