Currents of Time

Sea Monks.

I don't know. Maybe it's my shampoo (hidden effect: +Sea Monk Notorious Monster emnity?).

WHY DO YOU ALWAYS SPAWN WHENEVER I GET ON A BOAT. I am sick of hiding in the cabin!


(UTSUSEMI: NI IS MIIIIIIIIIIIINE. LOOK AT THIS: THIS IS ME BEING DONE WITH NINJA FOR EVERRRRRRR. omg. finally. Our very last BCNM run was kind enough to grant us a third scroll, so my brother and I each got what we needed, as well as a... teeeeny little bit of gil, at least.)



Finally went and poked around on the BotCon page, possibly because I wanted to rub salt into my own wounds. $175 for non-toys package seems a bit steep (assuming you want to register with the club, but seeing as it saves you 25 dollars, why wouldn't you, if you can?), but I WANT TO GO SO BAD.

UGH!


I HATE NOT HAVING A JOB/ANYONE TO GO WITH! (If I had a job, I could afford to go alone. As it is, I can only pay for two of the three necessities - those being air fare, hotel, registration.) I'd go register on some forum somewhere and beg for a roommate, but we all remember what happened last time I signed up at a forum BY WE ALL I MEAN ME. And also rooming with complete strangers is kind of not something I'd be comfortable with. And also they'd probably feel the same way.

*goes to sulk in the corner*


Also, I dislike Daylight Savings Time. Whyyy do you do this to me?


And, just so you know, despite the apparent general tone of this entry and the fact that my ankle still freaking hurts (you know what would be lovely? HEALTH CARE, so I could go see a doctor), today was pretty good and I'm actually fairly content. Aside from whenever I check the forums and see all the BotCon talk, which prompts the QQ.

... QQ

Oh, and, uh, probably obviously, I'm back from visiting my brother.

AND. I am having a bizarre bout of NEED TO WRITE NEED TO WRITE RIGHT NOW, which mostly prompts me to wonder what I'm forgetting about doing, because this is usually a sign of subconscious procrastination. Oh, well~

GUESS WHO GOT NINJA TO LEVEL 37 TONIGHT AND NOW NEVER HAS TO LEVEL IT EVER AGAIN!


EEE!


I just need to get the level 30 and the level 37 scrolls and then I never even have to use it as my main ever again!

I'm done! I'M FINALLY DONE WITH NINJA. (Heck, this is the first time I've finished any job.)

IT IS GONE IT IS GONE IT IS GONE I AM SO, SO HAPPY omg


Even though I now owe Aniko 55k - down to 37 now - and need to figure out how I'm going to go about obtaining a scroll of Utsusemi: Ni...


Also now I'm going to go pass out. So tired. @.@

I had plans! But then I spent the evening watching my brother play through the entirety of Portal instead, because who can resist GLaDOS? We have cake downstairs. We ate cake after he played. Because we could.

I'm fairly certain I haven't mentioned it before (didn't talk about Portal much, did I? I don't have a tag for it, so I must not have), but - for those of you who've played both Portal and Silent Hill - I can't be the only one seeing a resemblance. You know. Rusty, broken down... massive fans... no one around, but lots of signs that there had been people there, once... Doom... It's creepy, okay, even my brother thinks so.

I bought him a copy of Hellgate: London the other day because he asked me to. Also, I picked up a used and extremely cheap copy of Drakengard because I have a vague recollection of someone saying something favorable about it, but I can't remember who or what. 5$, I wasn't going to argue.


I'm exhausted. I woke up freakishly early this morning and couldn't get back to sleep, so then I went downstairs and tried dyeing fabric with tea. It wasn't dark enough, so I tried again later in the afternoon, after it had dried out, and then it was too dark to tell (since the lighting in my house is horrible) properly by the time the fabric had dried out again.

And I either hallucinated a conversation with Aniko or she completely forgot it, honestly not sure which at this point. Tired.


Suspect something else is wrong with dog again, will talk to mother about it if she calls.

Animals. Saw a young robin dead in the grass by a tree this morning. I was very sad. When I walked back after checking the tomatoes and artichoke plants, it had moved, so it apparently wasn't dead, it just did a good job of faking. Then it was hopping around a bit. I took its picture but don't have any uploaded yet, too tired to do it now.

Got my DRK to 30. So happy. Now RDM to 25 and NIN to 37, and then maybe WAR, too, and ugh that list is too long and full of jobs I don't like. I actually enjoyed DRK, and I like WAR, but DRK's as high as I need and I don't need WAR, either, and ergh. Though RDM's not necessary, either, I just decided to, and I can take THF to 67 before I have to actually worry about nin again, and 67's probably not ever happening, ha, so, um. God, I hate leveling ninja. Hisi thf says stabby. Me sleep? Sleep good. I don't remember why I started this entry but I'm going to post it anyway, because if I'm suffering, you have to suffer, too. G'night.
