Ugh, my apartment still smells a little like cigarette smoke. The worst thing about smoking cigarettes, I've found, is that it follows you everywhere. One of my roommates brought her friends over, and they must have had a few before they came in because the entire place smelled like an ashtray when I got back. Do not appreciate my nose being ( Read more... )

So due to the combined efforts of chicken broth, oranges, and a very long and very hot shower (although not all at the same time, because that would just have been messy), it seems that my cold has died down for now. I still have a bit of the sniffles and the occasional annoying sneeze, but I figure I can deal with that. If only my writer's block ( Read more... )

So did you guys know that they made a Tales of Phantasia OVA? It's only four episodes long and they really crunched down the plotline (which means that those who haven't played the game will be extremely confused), but it's pretty cool nonetheless. I love the animation, for some reason. It may be the shading. Or the eyes on the characters. Dunno.

My sister should just stop talking for the rest of her life-- nothing will ever come close to the sheer amount of awesome that came out of her mouth last night. XD XD XD (For context, she was playing Okami when she said this. Just imagine three chainsaws spinning around above the main character and you'll probably understand why I was laughing so ( Read more... )

For Christmas, I got my sister a copy of Okami, which would probably explain the lack of entries as we've both been playing the crap out of it. Or rather, she's been playing the crap out of it-- I've been watching her play the crap out of it. We've got less than a week until we go back to school (... *sob*), so we're trying to beat it as quickly ( Read more... )

I finally get out of my creative funk, and then the computer decides to become a bitch and completely wonk out on me. It looks like it's fixed now, but jeez was that annoying.

Speaking of glitches (lol see what I did there?), the family and I finally got around to watching Tin Man.

Here's hoping everyone had a Merry Christmas/Happy Chanukah/whatever the heck. I won't bore you with the details of my own gifts, but let's just say I'm greatly enjoying my new little Mp3 player. ^_^ Today was officially PJ day at my house, which was nice because we just lazed around and watched Tombstone (which, by the way, is what the title quote ( Read more... )

Dear winter,

I like you. Seriously, I do. I may not enjoy you as much as the other seasons, but I have to admit to a certain childlike glee whenever I see huge fluffy flakes of snow falling from the sky.

That being said, would it kill you to not be such a friggin' tease?

I mean, I was sort of getting used to the bitter cold, but then you had to pull ( Read more... )

So, school's out finally. Ugh, I was having so much trouble with that final paper. Arggh. But it's done and I'm out and everything is awesome now. It snowed my first night back at my parents, too. That was a nice welcome. ^_^

The only problem is that I'm back on my parents' computer with its lame-ass connection. Which will probably be less lame-ass ( Read more... )
