I have only met one directly, but you know those people who faint dead away at the sight of blood? Even just a little bit, like from a minor nosebleed? I have always wondered how they go through life. I mean... what do you do if you have the nosebleed, and seeing blood makes you pass out? These are the things I wonder about when I stand at the sink with a washcloth smashed against my face.
TODAY'S MEME ANSWER IS TERRIBLE AND DEPRESSING, by the way.
30 Days of Video Games
( Day 09 - Saddest game scene )
I was clicking around the internet this morning trying to find if there's a set of official lyrics for "Answers" (that song I was rambling about in yesterday's entry) out there yet (it seems not, still) and ended up in a forum thread where someone linked to this trailer video and, DAMN IT, SE, I want to play that game! Where are you hiding it? :<
I mean, I presume the storyline will get there eventually, but, man... (What really bugs me is that I CAN JUST SEE THE EDGES of a really, really interesting and great story buried in there somewhere, but it comes soooo slowly and just, there is so much wrong with that game still.)
WHATEVER, I STILL HAVE VANA'DIEL. (VERSION UPDATE IN MAY WHOOOO finally getting the server merges out of the way and reopening the worlds, geez.)
... haha, not-so-funny story about the upcoming merges, which I am not sure I have even mentioned, partly because of this story! Phoenix was spared any of the drama last year 'cause we had one of the highest populations, but after the merges, we had the highest of the lowest populations... So we're on the board this time. S'UP, TITAN.
Anyway, most of us are irrationally attached to our servers in FFXI. That's important for you to know because, the night my cat was lost and I was stuck in New York freaking out and being upset (it didn't help at all that when my then-roommate called to tell me what was up, she was in what I thought to be either drunken or sobbing hysterics and unable to speak, so once we'd finally narrowed it down to SOMETHING BAD, I was like, Jesus, she's simultaneously screaming and hyperventilating, was someone KILLED, did the building burn down, has she been raped??? So I was already freaking out before we finally got to the "I LET THE CAT OUT AND HE DISAPPEARED" part), after I'd done what I could (which was basically nothing), I went clicking around the web on my PSP trying to take my mind off things and of course the first damn thing I come across is SERVER MERGES and there is Phoenix on the list and I was like ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME, FIRST YOU TAKE MY CAT AND NOW YOU TAKE MY SERVER and was one untied shoelace away from complete mental meltdown for a few seconds. Fortunately, I did a little more reading and discovered Phoenix is fine, we're FINE, we are just getting company.
BUT YEAH! That is my story about the upcoming server merges! Exciting.
