I think my creativity has decided to shoot me in the face, take a bow on center stage and leave for a while. I can usually easily get out of these odd slumps that I get into rather easily but this time around it's just not working which is an irritation in itself. I've been trying to work myself out of it slowly and that doesn't seem to be working so I'll try another route either later today or perhaps just later this week. Eventually, I'll crawl out of my hole and get back into the mood for writing things and bringing my characters up to par in the role play I'm at.
Aside feeling like a creative loser, I've been playing more Realms of Chaos as of late and as luck would have it I'm not entirely sucking at it. The only reason I say that is because I created another character and I'm doing fairly well with her for it being my first time running around and doing everything by myself without Jeremy's help. Normally when I create a character he does too in order to help me run around and do everything because I'm just not that good at getting myself around in that game like, whatsoever. Anyway, aside the newbie at RoC, Dessaie is now at level 47 and remains kicking asses with ease. Leveling in that game is entirely too hard, for serious. It's so easy when you're just starting out but then it's like, 'oh great, I leveled! now after three million, nine-hundred and forty thousand, two-hundred and seventy-nine more experience points I can max out all my skills and then go back and get all the exp I need to actually level again! hooray!' But I'm not really complaining, it's pretty fun to run around killing shit and keep checking your stat points going "can I level now? can I level now?! How about now!?" - and no, that wasn't sarcasm. :)
The only other thing I can say is that we rented two movies from Movie Gallery because Jeremy got one free for his birthday being this month, and because we just wanted another one too. Can I just say there are a ton of movies that came out I had never heard of that look like incredibly excellent films? Anyway, we rented Fracture with Anthony Hopkins and Ryan Gosling in it. Very good movie, especially if you like those psycho-drama-mystery movies. And plus - who can say no to the man who plays a perfect Hannibal, am I right? Anthony Hopkins is the man when it comes to psycho-killers. The other movie we rented was Reign on Me with Adam Sandler and Don Cheadle in it and again a very good movie. Pretty much it's a movie about communication. Cheadle plays a dentist who has no idea how to open up to his wife, and Sandler plays a 9/11 widower. It's no longer shocking for me to see Adam Sandler playing a serious role as it was when he first started too. Anyway, as depressing as a 9/11 widower sounds the movie wasn't really all that sad - it was of course, but there was a lot of laughs in it too. Well anyway, I recommend both movies as a good watch.
