Beware, for I am: Refreshed Refreshed

Ok, so today. Went to Chibi’s and knocked out a few more movies from the list. We watched the fourth season of Red vs. Blue, which was insanely funny. And we watched The Day After Tomorrow; also, insanely funny (at least, if you’re us it was). We watched the first episode of Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon too...talk about funny. There was a lot of other insane stuff we watched that was hers (big surprise -_-), but I can’t remember their names...so yeah.

What was really funny was that right at the end of The Day After Tomorrow, the weather over here started getting really bad. And we’d gone through the whole movie with me saying, “They’re all gonna die.” And Chibi responding with, “Yup, they’re gonna die.” Me: “D-E-D, dead.” Chibi: “Uh huh. Dead.” And then we both look out the back window and Chibi looks at me and said, “We’re gonna die...” That was funny. And the weather was bad too, but I love bad weather. Unless it’s tornados. I don’t like tornados. Unless they’re digital...yeah, we’re all whores for digital tornadoes. /nod nod nod.

I have to remember to bring Sailor Moon – Sailor Stars the next time I go over. Though, I don’t know when that’ll be. Chibi gave me a ton of anime to watch. Then again, I think she has more anime than I do -.-

So, that was the day. I shall now go and watch said anime that Chibi loaned me. I will be giving my opinions of it as I watch it for the next few days (weeks?). Tootles.

PS: Oh yeah. I’ve got so many quiz results saved up that I’m never going to get to, that I think I’ve decided to start posting, like, 10 every Sunday or something. I hardly feel like posting on Sundays usually (because I never get anything done then -.-), so I might as well put the time to good use.

Things have been happening. I just haven’t been writing. Yesterday I played a bit of EQ2 and went over the next two chapters for my EQ Saga. I’ve also been writing a lot of the next chapters of Different from Me. I’ve yet to type them up though. I’ll do that sometime this week if I can manage it. I’m trying to get another chapter out before the whole Mecha Con fiasco starts. I’ve also gotten into this X-men fan fic called Smashing Through the Looking Glass by lilmouse. It’s just really cool and odd. I guess it reminds me of myself (though I do tend to lean more towards odd).

Oh yeah. Met Bub’s new girl friend for the first time today. She reminds me of almost all of the others he’s ever been with. I guess he just goes for that type of girl. Super thin, super beautiful…super...superficial. I dunno. She seems like a nice girl and all but /shrugs. I know better than to get close to any of Bub’s girls. It’s not that they don’t stick around. They tend to linger in fact. But none of them seem very real to me. I guess I’m being harsh...oh well. Time to change subjects then.

I’ve been buying Chibi and Reiko gifts like crazy lately. In this last month alone, I’ve bought at least five things with the intention of giving it to either one of them at some point. I already have their Christmas presents, but then I saw something that totally screamed Chibi and I had to get that for her. Then I saw these things that reminded me of both of them and I had to get those too. I swear -.- Aren’t I supposed to be saving for Mecha Con? Seriously. Oh well. I won’t have to worry about rushing whenever Christmas rolls around.

I guess that’s all for tonight. I haven’t been feeling too great. I guess I’m lucky I got this post in. Talk at ya’ll later. Ja-ne.

Beware, for I am: Working Working

Well, it’s the fourth. There are all mannor of pops, sizzles, bangs, booms and screeches that would indicate that 1) Fireworks are going off in mass (something I expect) or 2) We’re being invaded (another thing that I eventually expect -.-).

The day has been wonderful. I’ve literally done nothing all day long. It was dark and gray and gloomy and it thundered and drizzled and rained all day. I loved it! I wish it’d do that more often. I love lightening, thunder and constant rain. Couldn’t have been a better holiday...for me at least. Then again the only thing I went out for today was to get something at Taco Bell. Otherwise, I spent my day playing EQ2, reading fan fiction, listening to music and watching TV. It was great. The only way this day could’ve been better, is if there was one of those VH1 I love the ___’s marathons on or something. Oh! Or a Supernatural marathon! That would’ve rocked! I don’t expect to see that till Halloween though. I miss my Winchester boys ;_;

But anyway. The day went by so quick...it must’ve been the fan fiction. I mean seriously ya’ll. I don’t know why, but Carefree Quill’s Lord of the Rings stories (aka The Last Seer and The Elves of Summer) always get me so pulled in. And I don’t want to stop reading. I look up and see the time flying...and, I don’t care! I just wanna keep reading! It’s so weird...behold the power of the written word (when used well). I only played a little EQ2 this morning. My three low-level characters. I got them all up to a decent level (5 or 6). I got some good pics of them too, but I haven’t decided whether I wanna put them up anywhere. /shrugs We’ll see.

I am currently trying to piece together the next chapter of The EQ Saga -.- It only occurred to me a few hours ago that the next chapter is due tomorrow. I’ve got all the words and everything, it’s just making sure that everything fits together, y’know? Sometimes I hate how much of a freak I am about it ‘feeling’ right. I mean honestly. Is it really worth giving myself a headache over? /thinks Hell, yes, it is.

Oh, I got a friend request from a guy at MySpace. Totally cracked me up! He’s got an EQ-ish song (that he made...I think). He’s part of a (get this) Kare Bear Mafia...yeah. Exactly. I was like, “Dude! So approving this guy!” His alias is M.C. Donalds. And in other MySpace news! I got a comment from Chibi! I miss her so much /gushes. Oh! And I finally got that video uploaded to my MySpace.

Ok. I think this entry has been random and covered enough things...When you can’t keep yourself on a subject then it’s time to stop blogging, na no da O.o ...I’m going to bed...soon. As soon as I save this document with all my hard work in it. Later!

Beware, for I am: Pleased Pleased

Wow...yeah, today’s been good. Didn’t get up till 11. I say ‘get up’ because I was awake, I just didn’t want to drag myself out of bed till then. Got up, had breakfast and started playing EQ2.

I now have six characters on EQ2; all of my characters are on the Premafrost server. First is Illisse my Barbarian Mystic. She’s level six. Then is Silivren my Dark Elf Wizard that is currently level 3. Followed by Miiriel, my Erudite Illusionist that is level 7. Followed by Vicraxx my Iksar Bruiser of level 5. Next is Allasante my Ratonga Warden of level 3. Finally I have Anvanime, my Wood Elf Ranger of 3 levels. And I must say, it has been a fun day. The names of all but one are all elvin to my knowledge...Illisse means All Sweetness, Silivren is Glittering Silver, Miiriel is Glittering Jewel, Allasante is Joy Bringer, and Anvanime is Most Beautiful. Vicraxx is just a mix of Vicari and Caxrass. Most of it’s been fun, the only real drag is when tons of people get on and my computer gets all jumpy when I (or anyone else for that matter) moves. There was this time when Vicraxx grouped and I knew I shouldn’t have done it, but the guy kept bugging me! He asked me to group four times, and I kept declining. Finally I just accepted. I hardly ever group, because I have to do things at my own speed. Most guys that play operate on years of experience and just do things all ‘bam-bam-bam-bam-bam!’ like. I like to take my time, look around, smell the roses so to speak. These guys would just attack stuff and then move on, and then go on and I wouldn’t know where they were and they’d have to come and get me, and then the computer got all laggy. I think my chat bar was going crazy too, because I’m pretty sure they were talking but it never showed what they were saying. Finally I was just like, “Melt down!” and logged off. I went and ate lunch and came back about an hour later. Things were a tad bit better by then. So, for future reference, never group! Anyway..so yeah. All new characters, all new game (you can see them here).

In other RPG news: I got an invite on MySpace to join an RPG Message board all Pirates of the Caribbean-ish. I was tickled that someone actually went through MySpace and said to themselves ‘oh, she might enjoy this type of thing!’ and invited me. Of course, I’ve done Message Board RPGs before and I’ve never had much luck with them. To me their too slow. By the time some people reply to what’s going on others have lost interest and you can’t move forward without everyone interacting. It’s why I prefer IM-RPG; it’s all instant (well mostly -.-). Of course that got me thinking about the Tenshi again. Man, we would’ve rocked a Pirate-y RPG. Of course, that for us would’ve been someone playing Jack Sparrow and/or Will Turner and every other character dressing like pirates (whether they wanted to or not). I can so see Lina as a pirate /nod nod nod. Buffy too probably. And maybe Magoo would through in Larry as her pirate person. And Duo would be the finest looking one of the bunch! Not that we’d all be limited to one. The Tenshi are many things, but we’re never limited ^____^. Man, that brings back old times. I miss our RPGing, but I think I’m probably the only one who’s interested in it anymore. /shrug What ya gonna do?

And that’s been my day. All-in-all, not a bad way to start off the first of the month. I shall now conk out and have peaceful dreams and then tomorrow try to dream up more to either the EQ Saga, Different from Me or the EQ2 characters’ bios...that is, if I don’t get exhausted from being up so early and all that. Ja!

Beware, for I am: Grateful Grateful

Wow. So today’s Father’s day. Happy D Day to all you Dads out there, btw. I sent my dad an e-mail telling him how proud I was to have him and how grateful. That pretty much sums it up. I have friends that don’t have great relationships with their parents, and I’ve gotta say, I am so blessed. My parents and I get along so well, we enjoy one another’s company (most of the time ^_^), we have different opinions about things (like whether or not having a fan on in a room actually make that room cooler ¬_¬), but overall, we not only love each other we like each other. And that’s a comfort many people just don’t have.

Speaking of how much I ‘enjoy’ my parents, the other day when I came home from work with that migraine, my parents had a surprise for me. Usually I don’t like surprises very much...but that’s on account of how sometimes a surprise involves me somehow being social, and I ain’t ‘zactly the social butterfly. But this was a nice one. They got me the Magic Bullet. You know that blender they’ve been advertising for ages now? I had only been wanting it for a year or so, and Mom said she and Dad were driving and she told him how I wanted it and they could get it at Walgreen’s and he was like ‘Let’s go.’ I was tickled pink. It comes with it’s own cook book right, so there’s all these recipes about how to make chicken salad sandwiches and soups and artichoke dip and of course the cappuccino drinks alone are enough for me. There is a whole frozen drinks section, but I don’t’ like to drink so I figure I can just make myself virgin drinks and enjoy the fruit and such ^_^

The last couple of days haven’t been my best. I’ve kinda been giving myself grief because of my stories. I mean, I have the EQ Saga, which is my Ever Quest fan fiction; and then I have Different from Me, which is my X-men Movie fan fiction and I just don’t feel like I’m putting enough time into either of them. But I’m too tired to do anything about it. Or when I am awake, I don’t feel very creative and can’t write. It’s the darndest thing. Quite a conundrum.

Reiko said she’d be coming back today...said she’s going back to Kansas though. I really don’t know what to think of it anymore. But I’ve come to the conclusion that it doesn’t really matter what I think anymore. I doubt that she honestly cares. It’s funny, ‘cause her mom says that I’m a good role-model for her and everything...I’m just a bit more stable and down-to-earth than her other friends...well, Chibi notwithstanding of course. I don’t feel the slightest bit qualified to be someone’s role-model. There are times I don’t feel very much like a good person...but I do try...I suppose that’s what counts.

I think I’m gonna go and watch some more of Chibi’s Firefly...before she comes back and takes it away. Gotta memorize it while I can, na no da. Goodnight everyone.

What a day. I literally buzzed through work. I did everything so fast and with this boundless energy. I was only tired when I sat down in my car and it was like “Phew…” Then I got home and showered and lounged about. After letting the tenseness settle out of my system, I wrote Twin-san a e-mail and then got to work proofing my next chapter for the EQ Saga. It’s ready and I’ve already loaded the document up to FF.net, but I reminded myself that I don’t want to post it till the 10th. I quickly realized it was like 11:30, so I could just wait a while, and then post it ^___^

So yeah. That’s all that’s happened today. I’m happy with the next chapter. Especially the ending. So that was my day. Later!

Lasagna...goo~ood.

Ain't they cute!

Gomen ne, about the last few posts. I haven't been feeling great lately and it made me late on posting the next chapter of the EQ Saga. I did manage to clean my room up a bit Saturday, but it's still a wreck, and I hurt my left arm somehow, and for the past three days I haven't been able to move it the right way without it hurting. Good thing I work with doctors and nurses. Mrs. L said to take some IB Profin or some Motrin for the inflamation because it sounds like something is puting pressure on the nerve there. So I did and now my arms a bit better. It's just sore.

I'm also still getting used to LJ's new entry posting thing. It looks a lot like MySpace's thing only without all the hassel -.- (aka it's easier).

Here I thought both my ‘Mouto-chans were leaving me last weekend, and it turns out it was only Reiko. Chibi doesn’t leave till this Friday. If I'da known that, I might've tried to set up another get together. At least so I could give Chibi  some of the Manga that I stole from Reiko ..heh..so yeah.

Well, I gotta go ahead and start getting ready. Later!

Beware, for I am: Content Content


Ok, so this morning got up, went to church, Bro. Gary Sap was there. He used to be the director for the LA youth conventions...I remember when we made him shave him shave his head...Man...teens are so easily amused.

Anyway. After coming home and eating, I worked a bit on the web site. Mostly just the Written Word section. I’ve been making a table for my main content to go in and then having a background image inside that table. Then I’ve been putting the chapters in a white table and having a black background. Well, I decided to actually make a few backgrounds for the EQ Saga that’d go instead of the drab old black background. Then it got to be like, 30+ backgrounds /rolls eyes. So then I went and got some X-men backgrounds from the X3 web site, and I decided to use those for the Different from Me chapters. So that sections is all but done. No more worky on that section. I think the only thing I really have left to do is order the movies, tv, anime, and toons lists and give summaries of why I liked certain things, and the whole links section needs serious work. I’ve almost got Toons and Anime done. Gargoyles has been done as well. So, really all I have to is TV and Movies. Movies in itself will be huge because I have such a huge list of movies that I’ve seen/want/like/hate etc. Obsessive? I think so.

So then...I vegged out a bit. You know...just laid in bed for a long time thinking about where I could go with fics and other such stuff. And just thought, you know? I like to just think with no particular goal in mind from time to time.

Then I gave mom a pedicure because they’ll be leaving tomorrow, and I can’t very well send her out without giving her the professional toe treatment ^__^. Oh, and Reiko came over just as I was finishing up. She asked my Dad if he wanted her to do his toe nails, and he said, “Sure, let me go and clean them.” And he went in the other room and got the toe-nail that had fallen off when we went to Toad Suck to visit my cousins =__= Strange sense of humor runs in this family, na no da. I bet you might get pretty grossed out by that. You’d probably prefer that I just stop right there, because things just couldn’t get weirder, right?

If so, don’t read beyond this point )

Then Reiko got on her MySpace and I showed her something that I’d only discovered about an hour before she got there. I saw the cutest little hamham (hamster) video on there, and when I went to the person’s page I found that it was a page for the hamster, albeit organized by the hamster’s owner. I then stumbled upon the S. S. H.. Apparently it’s a MySpace community just for rodents...Hamster, chinchillas, gerbils, etc. Now, while it did gain me two new spots on my MySpace friend’s list...I must say I find it a bit...interesting. I mean...these people have either made their pet the main character on their MySpace or they’ve just made a whole MySpace page for their pet...interesting. That’s all I have to say about that. As a result of these people and their overwhelmingly cute pets, I now cannot get the Hamester Dance remix song out of my head...and I'm no longer certain that I want to.

Aw, cripes! I really have to get Reiko to show me that button thing again. It was histericle. But anyway. Shower’s taken, pills are kicking in, and I’m getting up early to see the rents off on their grand adventure to Arkansas. Goodnight.

msmoon: (Giddy Greg - Tee Hee!)

Beware, for I am: Calm Calm


Wow. Today was a flurry of things. I woke up and it was almost 12. I was like O___o. So was my mom come to think of it.

But anyway. I hadn’t gotten to sleep till late (thanks so much, insomnia). I realized that I’d been reading and forgetting the time. Then when I finally did go to bed, I realized that today would be the 4th, meaning that the next chapter in the EQ Saga was due Friday. I kinda freaked because even though I had the chapter put together the way I wanted it, I hadn’t proofread it. So there’s little guessing as to what I planed on doing today.

But there were a few kinks in that plan. First off, Mom wanted some help ‘straightening up’ the house. I don’t mind that in the least. I stripped my bed and put the sheets on, made my bed with fresh sheets, picked up around my room, cleaned my bathroom, and then I vacuumed the living room. Mom and I finally put up the last little Asian art thingy for the set that I have on my wall. I think it looks really nice considering that it’s on a wall that’s all bowed out =__=.

behold )

But anyway.

Then I got out my papers and started proofreading. I had both stories to think about. Both the EQ Saga and Different from Me needed updating. So, I proofread both of those and then I helped Mom clean off the carport so that she could wash it down and pour cleaner on the concrete. I tell you, my Mom likes things being orderly and clean. And she everything she cleans, she cleans completely. None of this half-way crap that others may give you. Oh no. My Mom’s sister didn’t nickname her Clorox Bleach for no reason.

So after that, Reiko came over to check her MySpace and chat as usual. She told me her mom would be leaving Tuesday to go out of town for something, and she wanted a place to crash that’d have some fun company. I told her my parents were leaving Tuesday to go to Arkansas, so I would have 2 beds free if she wanted to occupy one. So she shall be staying next week. Mom had fixed some hot wings and some corn on the cob, and Reiko hadn’t eaten so we offered her some food and of course...she took it. So after she ate and we gabbed a bit more she left.

Then it was back to working. I read over what I proofread and then I made sure everything was working to the best of my knowledge, then I htmled the chapters. I already posted the next chapter in the Different from Me story line. Then I htmled the next chapter in the EQ Saga. But it was getting kinda late, so Mom called me in to watch CSI. Man, I love that show. Don't ask me why. I guess it's because I understand it, and that makes me feel smart. Not that I feel smarter for watching it. I just feel smart because I can understand what's going on. But anyway.

After watching CSI and taking a shower, I loaded it on to FF.net, but I didn’t post it. So tomorrow, I’ll go ahead and post it.

I was thinking of going over to FF.net to read some fan fiction (what else does one do when they go over to FF.net?), but it’s already late and Mom needs me to get up early and drive her to pick up her car from the auto shop tomorrow. So, I shall be off to bed. Goodnight.

Ok, so…The wedding yesterday was nice. It would’ve only been nicer if there would’ve been more people there...and if Mom wouldn’t have gotten the dizzy spells near the end there. She has ‘episodes’ where she’ll be feeling fine and then suddenly she’ll just start to feel dizzy. Sometimes shell wake up feeling bad, and then at night she’s fine; and then, there’s times when she’ll wake up feeling great and it hits her in the afternoon.

Anyway. Today was a Dune day. I watched all of Dune, I watched all of Children of Dune and I watched the Dune movie...it’s been a very Duney day...in a very Duney way...and it’s all [livejournal.com profile] tinhuviel’s fault. I hate you, woman. In a good way of course.

Other than feeling mildly terrible, I’ve come to notice that there is something wrong with my left ankle. On the left side just below the ankle, I feel a constant pinching sensation when I walk. Now that’s been going on for days now, but today it’s been a sharp pinch followed by a searing or burning sensation. All I can assume is that I did something that my ankle did not approve of and it’s trying to mend.../shrugs nothing else to do about that.

In other news, I managed to pull a rough draft of the next chapter of the EQ Saga together today. I had some scraps of a chapter lying around, but today I inserted and cut and fine-tuned and I fully intend to print it out and go over it sometime tomorrow.

Other than that...I got nothing. So...go away..


Let's be totally random! Taken from [livejournal.com profile] purrsia...because she asked for it.

1. Pacific. Because it’s my favorite ocean. It touches Asia and Japan and that’s probably the closet I’ll ever get to either.

2. Package. Because I just love receiving them...though, more often than not, I’m receiving them from myself.

3. Pajamas. Because they’re the only thing I really enjoy wearing.

4. Pamper. Because one day, I intend to do so to myself and anyone I should favor.

5. Panda. Because they’s awfully cute.

6. Panderer. Because that’s what I am, dawg! Now get back on the streets and start bringing me my monies, ‘ho.

7. Pirate. Two words: Jack Sparrow.

8. Plot. Because I find myself constantly trying to develop them.

9. Pluto. Because I associate most with him/it.

10. Polonium. *wags eyebrows* Wouldn’t you like to know?

I had far too much fun with this...

4-April-06

Title:

Vicious Triangle
Author: MSMoon
Warnings: Almost 10,000 words...you’ve been warned.
Feedback: As long as it's constructive ;)
Characters: MMC03, MMC14, MMC33, MMC45, & MMC46
Disclaimers: I own my own characters from EQ and nothing else. I would be somewhat upset if someone used my or anyone else's characters without my permission. So if you want to use them please ask.

I do not own EverQuest. I am poor. Suing me wouldn't really profit much. Since there so much in this chapter, I’d like to elaborate on the disclaimer. I don’t own Lucan D’lere, Cain Darkmoore, Tholius Quey, Valeron Dushire, or any other guild masters of Freeport. Neither do I own their guilds (ohh, the power…). All references to Freeport and Norrath are also not mine. They can all be found in the EverQuest Role-Playing Game book “Realms of Norrath: Freeport”. I’ve just taken liberties with them because...well the story wouldn’t be as interesting without them. Besides, it’s fun.

No horses were psychologically damaged during the making of this chapter...

Ok, I’m posting this to [livejournal.com profile] ruby_unicorn because that’s just how shocked I was when I realized it. Ok, so I’m at work. And there’s nothing to do, right? So what do I do? I find something to occupy my time. So, I start writing in my X-men story that I’ve been secretly working on for God knows how long. I only just got the idea to start writing it again (mostly due to boredom). So, I’m pretty much finished with the first chapter, and I decide to go over to FF.net and at least upload it to my documents section. While, I’m there, I redo the summary for The EverQuest Character’s Saga (really need to come up with a different name -.-) and I notice the word count...89,773. That’s how many words are in this story, people! The EQ Saga has grown to almost 90,000 words! I never even realized it! Yeah, sure, I knew it was huge, but I never realized how far I’ve come with it! And it’s not over, there’s still so much to touch on...

OK, so I just wanted to share with everyone the depths of my insanity. Thank you for listening to the rant. Later.

Wow. Today was huge. Work was busy, busy, busy, busy, busy and then...nothing. For like an hour and a half there was really nothing to do. So I wrote as I usually do. Started on the next chapter and then I realized...it’s kinda done. O.o...I just need to proofread and make sure everything’s in the right place...Freaky, no? I’m still unsure as to whether I should up date sooner than next month...I’ve been pushing the ‘I’ll update on the 5th of every month’ thing. Besides, if I have the next chapter done, I can focus on the chapter that comes after that; thus ensuring that I have myself set up for the next few months. It’s a nice pace to have...slow and steady.

Mom and I went to Sam’s today. OMG, I love that store. Where else can you buy 28 sharpie markers, all the same size, for cheap? No where. No really. I mean, you can get a supposed ‘value pack’ at Wal-Mart, but then you’re paying like $12 for 10 sharpies...or whatever...I’m not sure...it’s late, and I’m tired. What else...

Oh, yeah. I bought 3 movies while at Sam’s. I got Hook and Zathura for $23.99. Verry nice. And I got The Incredible Mr. Limpet which I only just added to my DVD wish list on Amazon.com the other day. It was like $5.99. So that was fun. Mom always laughs at me when I compare prices. She’s like, “Hon, you probably wouldn’t have bought it if it weren’t a deal.” And I’m like, “...Huh...you’re right.” So, yeah. That’s cool. We’re gonna wait till Saturday and watch Zathura with Dad, ‘cause none of us have seen it. I can’t wait to re-watch Hook and The Incredible Mr. Limpet.

My Mom keeps saying that eventually DVDs will be obsolete and they’ll have something new that we’ll keep movies on. I think we’ll have some sort of digital media that we watch movies on, and we’ll just pay to download them eventually. To hell with individual things like DVDs, MiniDiscs, and the stone-age VHSs. Give me a portable computer triked out with terabytes of space any damn day.

Ok. I’m starting to sound like a zoned out hippy that’s missing the good old days. And I still haven’t copies these entries to e-mail for Jen-Twin-san. I’m gonna log off now. ‘Night-night.

You're like me! The intelligent loner. You're shy
at times but friendly, and you are never weak
and always independent. You are incredibly
intelligent (wise beyond your years) and have a
talent for many things (sports, music, art).
You have a kind and warm personality and enjoy
the simple things. Like hanging out with
friends and watching movies at home. But you're
sometimes quiet nature makes you a bit of an
outcast and a mystery to people. No matter how
pretty you are or smart or athletic, you just
can't seem to break into the crowd and be
noticed. Don't worry, try to be more outgoing
and speak out when you have more to say. Don't
hide behind your books and sports and computer,
get out there and get noticed. You also have
deep desires in life and feel vunerable and
alone at times. Don't feel sad either, What
helps me to express feelings and dreams that I
can't say to people, is through my writting.
Maybe you should try.

Several things to touch on this morning. Yesterday Mom and I cut the grass, though I did it mostly. She had to weed her flower beds, and it always takes her a while. So, I just cut grass till she was done. Which means, I ended up cutting all the front yard and about 1/3 of the back yard. It was surprisingly fun. I enjoy it because there’s just a sense of pride when the yard’s all pretty and you know you contributed. And there’s the fact that I ride on a mower instead of pushing it. That helps when determining the fun factor in yard work.

My shoulder are now burnt because of it, but they don’t really hurt. They’re just very red, and it’s quiet obvious where my tank top was. Mom says if I keep doing it I might actually get some color. However, I did have sun block on my face, so I didn’t have to worry about that. The only bad thing is that when I cut grass it aggravates my allergies. I usually get a runny nose and start crying. Well, this time, my tears fell right into my mouth...which wouldn’t have bothered me...if it wouldn’t have been for the sun screen >__< Bleah...

Ok, so church this morning was ok. Sunday school was fun, and I mentioned how I still wasn’t sure what was wrong with the computer with it not letting me play City of Heroes. linuXman asked if I had an antivirus or firewall that I was aware of and I told him I did have Norton. He said I might try blocking it and seeing if that helped. So I stored that away for later.

Mom and I went to Books a Million where we looked at calendars, travel books, and I looked at RPG books and manga while Mom looked at decorating books. I found another D&D book that I want. It’s called Races of Eberron . It has been thusly added to my Amazon.com Wish List till further notice. From what I can tell just by flipping through it, Changlings and Shifters are two completely different things. One of them (can’t remember which it is at this moment) shifts to animal like features and the other can actually just change anything about them. I need to get the book and read more about that. It’s kewl.

After Books a Million we went to Olive Garden. I enjoy Olive Garden a lot, but no one I know loves the place like I do. Sure we all love their salads and bread sticks, but aside from that, no one can find anything they like about it. Mom mentioned that we’re gonna have to go there during the week some time and get a cappuccino and a dessert and just sit and enjoy it just to try it out. That sounds like a lot of fun, but I have no idea when it’ll be possible to do. Anyway, I had the new shrimp scampi thingy. It was really good, but after eating two bread sticks and a salad, I really didn’t have much room left. But we eat that way so that we can have more for later. I will be taking that to work tomorrow.

When we got home, I hurred up and loged into Fan Fiction.net so that I could post the next chapter in the EQ Saga. I added in an author’s note and posted it, and I thought ‘hmm, I guess I can try that thing luniXman told me about.’ So, I disabled Norton and hit the City of Heroes icon...it’d downloading as I type. OMG, it was Norton all along. I feel so stupid. Now, I don’t actually have my subscription renewed or anything, and there’s the whole 1.3 GB that I need to down load before I could play, but I do intend to log on to the PlayNC site as soon as I can and renew my subscription for a month so that I can play when I get in from work and such.

I’m totally feeling menstrual and hating the fact that I was born female right now. I think I’m gonna turn off the monitor and nap. I can’t turn off the computer...that’d stop the downloading…and we can’t have that. So, I’ll write later. ‘Night.

View, Table View, Standard View! /sigh I had to say that before I forgot again. I reopened DreamWeaver today, only to find that it was restarted too. Just like everything else that restarted on my computer, all the settings had been cleared, and it was back to square one. No, web sites, no nothing. I’ve really gotta just make a chart that details site names, locations, passwords, all of it, because this is just too frustrating! And it wasn’t letting me fool with tables again. I finally figured out (again) that you have to go to View, then Table View, and select you want the Standard View thingy in order to be able to work with tables and layers freely.

Well, as everyone can see from my previous post, I posted the preview of the next EQ Saga chapter from work. I’m fairly proud of this one. Probably because I wrote the first half of it right after Katrina hit and then the rest of it all flowed out within the last week. The whole first scene where Moirai’s agitated and hot and sweaty is all really me, sitting in my house, with no AC, hot as hell, sweating like a pig (assuming pigs sweat), and cranky like a sweat-soaked cat! I wrote the whole first scene while we were waiting for the power to come back on. I used my inability to focus on the big picture (deliberately immersing myself in my own agitation so that I wouldn’t have to think of how horrible that hurricane he been), and put that all into that scene. And by golly! It worked! I’ve heard people say it all the time, “Use what you’re feeling at the moment and put it into the story. It makes the best scenes because you’re feeling what the character feels, and it ends up coming of more real.” I never actually believed it. And it worked! Son of a gun...I’m so gonna have to remember it.

The trick is learning when and how to turn it off. I mean, I don’t want to put too much of myself into my story...it’d be way too boring then. It’s learning to think in and outside of the box. Although most of the time I do agree with Tucker. “Hey, the box is there for a reason. I like thinking inside of it. I feel safe in there.” That’s one of the best lines ever, and I quote it whenever I can get half a chance ^.^

Work was huge today. In the end it didn’t seem huge, but it was. I typed up about 5 documents in all. Doesn’t seem like much compared to the 2 + 2 dozen I did a few days ago, but when you’re typing up 5 documents that all have to be proof read and check and re check by 3 different people...it turns into a whole-day event. But it’s like I say, work is never hard it’s challenging. Sometimes, the challenge just hurts my brain a little. But over-all, I love my job.

So...I’m looking at screencaps for City of Villians right now. It looks pretty fun. But I’ve already got City of Heroes and EQ 2 at my disposal. If I’m gonna play a game, it’ll probably be one of those two. I mean, think about it. You pay $45 at least for the game, then you have to pay monthly installments. I have two games like that, that I’ve already paid for...might as well just do those. Of course, I can’t really, because I still don’t know what the hell is up with my Moter...I call it my Moter because CoH thinks it’s a Router and it’s really a Modem that’s servings as a router. As soon as Mom get’s the phone bill in, I’m calling Bell South. Till them, I’m left to wonder why in God’s name they make online games that can’t get past these things. Honestly. Didn’t the tech guys think of this?

Still debating over whether or not I should get a laptop. Arguably, I can always use it. It’s not like it’d be a bad idea. The pros include having a backup for everything on my computer, being able to be on the computer and work on stuff even when the desktop can’t because it’d be plugged in, and establishing a line of credit by paying it off in monthly installments. Of course, I’d want to be able to pay as much as I could as quickly as I could, but that’d still be credit. But...I’m no where near actually saving up enough to think about it yet. So, I’ll put it off for a while longer. I’m tired.

I’m gonna go watch my old Alice Through the Looking Glass movie till I get too tired to function. Goodnight.

Today seemed to go by so slowly...it’s probably because it marks the beginning of the weekend and lazy days as I know them. Although the fact that I had virtually nothing to do at work didn’t help things very much. I mean, I only had one thing to do today and I’d already done most of it. Oh, no, wait, I had two things to do. But that other one was so simple, it didn’t make a blip on my ‘to-do’ radar. And the second thing I had to do was over half way done, I just had to wait for our accountant to hurry up and get me the right numbers.

Also, my internal/external company e-mail was set up along with everything else I requested from the computer tech guy. Then he left for Disneyworld. Lucky Bastard. The rest of us are stuck here with all the crazy people. Mardi Gras really brings out the terminally insane among us down here for some reason. If you ask the older people, they’ll tell you that Mardi Gras used to be about family. You got together with family and bar-b-qued and had fun and celebrated. Now it’s about getting drunk and who can flash more people and get better beads. It makes me sick.

On a better note; I finished the next chapter in the EQ Saga today. That’s right. I have now hit 6,300 words, which is just over the 5,000 minimum, thereby qualifying as a chapter. Now all I have to do is proof read and edit it and I’ll be done. It’s not due to go up till the 5th of March though, so I have some time. I figure, I’ll go over it once this weekend and then I’ll keep going over it on my lunch hours when I’m at work. I’ll figure it out.

Reiko loaned me Arashi no Ceres to watch along with some manga that I haven’t seen. Now, usually I enjoy any new anime that I can get my hands on, but this series isn’t working for me. It doesn’t help that Reiko bought it boot-leg from Hong Kong. I mean, the translation sucks (if it’s there at all), they get their names all weird (The fairy who’s name is Ceres they keep translating to Louise. Waterfalls is that?), and to top it all off the box set itself is falling apart. Not to mention the over use of love triangles, unrequited love, angst, and bloody miserable death. I keep telling myself that if the translation were better, I’d probably like it more. But then I look at the actual content, and I don’t like it. I mean it’s just too much blood, violence, and angst. Three things that I never like too much of in any situation. It also doesn’t help that Reiko ‘misplaced’ the third DVD and I couldn’t see the ending even if I wanted to.

The Manga that she loaned me is the first volume of Qwan, volumes 1 and 2 of Chobits, and volumes 1 2 and 3 of Vampire Game. The only one that I’ve started so far is Chobits and I’m not really that crazy about it. Yeah, the girl’s cute and sweet, but the whole thing’s just really really really perverted. Honestly. I think I’ll take a break from that to focus on the other two series to get an unbiased opinion of them.

Speaking of Reiko, her birthday is coming soon. I already have my present to her ready and all. Though, I do fully intend to call her up on March 8th and whisper over the phone “Seven Days” (her brithday’s on the 15th for all of those that don’t see any logic in that). That should show that I am actually keeping track and that will make her feel special.

Speaking of ‘Moto-chans, I’m gonna try and write to Chibi some time this weekend. If I don’t make the effort now, I may never do it. I can’t just say I’m busy with work or that I’m tired. Those excuses don’t work. In real life, you make time for what you love and you can quote me on that!

Allright. It’s late, I’m tired, I fully intend to sleep in tomorrow, and I wanna get a head start. Right now!


Wings
If you were an anime character the first thing
people would recognize about you would be your
wings. Having wings as your primary
distinguishing feature shows that you are
someone who holds to your beliefs (whatever
they may be) and yet, you are not afraid of
change either. You are a thoughtful person
with a tendency to see beyond what most people
perceive, and are quite open-minded towards new
and unusual ideas. Most likely you are quiet
and unobtrusive, especially in unfamiliar
situations, because you prefer to observe.

Today was really good. Work was challenging as usual, but good. The weather’s changed again and we have a pleasant north wind blowing around. It was very nice after being cooped up in the office to step outside and be greeted by that nice, fresh wind. Got home, showered, watched last night’s American Idol with Mom. We watched the first few minutes of the one tonight too, but we quickly lost intrest and changed it to Survivor.

I am sorely displeased about CSI tonight. Total rerun. But lately, everything’s a rerun. Either that, or there’s something in its place. I mean CSI: Miami rerun, Gilmore Girls and Supernatural not on because something else is showing, Bones taken over by an unnecessary 2 hour long American Idol, and tonight CSI a total rerun. Such a drag.

What else did I want to rant about? Oh yes. I noticed this early on, but I never mentioned it because I have a terrible memory. I actually had never even looked at previews or reviews or anything that had to do with the newest addition to my DVD collection Batman Begins. I bought it because a friend who’s seen it said it was awesome, and I know that he has very high standards. So, I bought it. And when I put the DVD in my DVD players an odd thought crossed my mind, “I wonder who they got to play Batman.” So, the first thing I said when I saw Bruce Wayne was...

“Dude! It’s Laurie! OMG! He grew up!”

That’s right. This man will always be Laurie from Little Women. That’s where I loved him first (probably because it’s where I saw him first...). The whole way though I kept hearing that stupid speech he gave poor Jo when she rejected him only fall in love with Amy...Amy of all people!

Ok. Next on the list. I don’t have a list, but I seriously think I should actually start making one because I’ve gotten so tired lately that I’ve been more forgetful.

Where was I? Oh yes. Next on the non-existent list. Fan fiction. Today I did a lot of work, but there was a lull around 3:45 where I didn’t really have much to do. All I had in my box was one thing, and it was a huge project and I didn’t want to start it if I was going to have to put it off till tomorrow. So I opened up my jump drive and started writing. Mostly working on the next chapter of my EQ Saga. Not too bad of a job, if I do say so myself. I’d ht a hump that I hadn’t been able to get over for a few weeks, and today I got over the hump and landed in the valley below said hump and plopped into a nice field of wild flowers. I’m finding it a lot easier to write now, so that’s going good. Also, I got the first two reviews for the last two chapters that I put up. For a while there, I thought no one had really noticed that I’d updated with two chapters, one of them extremely huge. But I got a review on both chapters from a nice person who asked me to marry him...at least I think he’s a him. There’s no way I’d accept a woman’s proposal. There can only be one Ms Moon after all.

I really need to write a letter to Chibi again...I sent her one a while back, and she never replied so I never wrote again. But I’m sure she’s very busy with school and all so I’m not very mad. I’ve always been the one who has to make the time for everyone else (especially Chibi and Reiko). I can’t expect that to change at this point.

And the sleeping pills are really starting to kick in. So, I’m going off to bed now. Goodnight.

So...what did I do today? Hmmm...well, I edited one of the next chapters in the EQ Saga. And...and...I watched the marathon of America’s Next Top Model on VH1. I also posted chapter 27 on FF.net. Yup, that’s about it.

I actually surprised myself by enjoying America’s Next Top Model. The pictures were exquisite and artsy and over-all the drama was entertaining. I knew I’d gone totally menstrual when I actually cried several times throughout the marathon. Let’s see...a few times for Michelle, once for Tiffany...several times for Kahlen. When I sympathize with models and start talking about the look of angles and lighting in their pictures, I know I’m menstrual. There’s no other explanation for it. Over-all Kahlen was my favorite. By the end of it I really didn’t like Keenyah. But, that’s just me /shrug.

That’s...all I have to say. For now of course. I’m kinda tired and not feeling well, and that’s probably why I’m so dragging this entry. But I guess it makes up for the over-load that was my last post. Oh well. Goodnight.
