No pranking here.
Maybe I just don't get the point, but April Fool's Day always seems kind of ... dumb to me. (On the other hand, I'm one of those people who can keep track of the date. ... If not necessarily the day of the week, as evidenced by my thinking Tuesday was Wednesday and Wednesday was Saturday.) I am always surprised when people get all up and freaked out about news announcements and stuff on this date because, uh. Hello? It's April 1. Most of it is just obnoxious.
But I think what The Allspark has done to their layout is amazing (it was the entire site for a while, but now it's just the main page and the Transformers discussion forum, where there are a bunch of time travel threads (we're back in 1985!), which amuse me greatly.
Who's Unicron?, A Transformers convention would be SO COOL, We're getting more episodes!, and discussion of information from SECRET INSIDE SOURCES are ... well, most of them, really. But I think they're funny. (Also, there's an an entirely new [fake] subforum.)
Anyway, as often as![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
fanficrants makes me run screaming (when I can be bothered to check it...), this entry is actually pretty awesome.
I went out walking and, as you do, ended up in a GameStop. They're having some big... sale thing. But I didn't want any of the new games they had for cheap and, anyway, trying to not spend money! Buuut they had Ōkami (I still need to finish that game, arg) for the Wii! Which I've been trying to sell my mother on for, uh ... since whenever she bought the Wii. Coming up on a year, now, if we aren't there already. And I finally succeeded! So I picked it up for her. And then they were giving out promocodes for this free, browser-based online RPG, so I checked that out. Kinda fun! I made it to level 4, but now I am out of Action Points until tomorrow, which is pretty lame.
THERE ARE TRILOBITES IN FFXI AND MY BROTHER KEEPS TRYING TO GIVE ME ONE. asvdghn.ln So far I've escaped the horror because my inventory's been full. At least my keyboard-mashing and wails of despair are still amusing to / a source of amusement for others?
Oh, man, spring is coming. Allergiiiiessss, whyyyyyyy. MAYBE LAST YEAR WAS A FLUKE AND THEY WON'T COME BACK?
Edit:
Oh, right. April. I didn't sign up, but for my own future reference, the current word count (untouched today thus far) in the "official" word doc is 5,381. I don't know how much of that's actually writing and how much is just me blathering about plot details in allcaps and shorthand, but that's the number I'm going with.
Also, YouTube's got some funky stuff going on in select videos (for today, anyway). It's kinda neat. Worth a look, anyway.
