~~Wipes the dust off of her Livejournal.~~
I always feel really weird when I start an LJ post after a long silence. Well, I may as well start with the characteristic dream post.
I had my first lucid dream the other day. I was in some neighborhood. Didn't look like my own. We'll just call it Generic Suburban Neighborhoodland. And I was floating, about twenty feet off the ground, but I could still feel something underneath me. "It's the futon," I realized. "I'm really asleep, and this is a dream." Then I started flying around, and managed not to slam into houses and trees. There were a few scene switches, but I don't remember much about them (except they had something to do with a Halloween party and walking behind some other people), though I do remember near the end of the dream, there seemed to be something about killer robots. It looked like it was going to be bad creepy rather than good, so I shut the dream off for a moment to brace myself, then turned it back on. I think I woke up at that point.
I hope I have more lucid dreams. That was neat.
A couple years back ssjstereotype sent me a copy of Star Ocean Till the End of Time. Now, I have this odd quirk where I have trouble starting a new game or listening to new music or reading new books if my attention is already focused on something else. However, this means I tend to jump on a fanwagon long after the wheels have fallen off.
Anyway, I've been playing SOTET a lot lately. I rushed through the game, was vastly underleveled when I got to what was presumably the final dungeon, and pretty much got the shit beat out of me. So I've started a new game. I love the battle system, especially the Bonus Battle gauge, since it involves the computer fighting while I have my lead character run around doing nothing in order to avoid getting hit. (Fayt: "Be warned: I won't hold ANYTHING back! ~~Goes and hides in a corner.~~") Also, I hope there's an LJ icon with the words "Goddamn Game Designers" on it out there somewhere. If not, I want to know why.
I probably have more to say, but since I woke up at midnight, I'm now really sleepy and can't remember much else. It will come to me later on, when I don't have access. Ah well.
I hope everything's going good for the rest of you! ~~Hugs to all!~~
