All the people running attack ads lost the election again. :3 VERMONTERS DON'T LIKE IT WHEN YOU BASH THE OTHER GUY. WE DON'T CARE WHAT YOU THINK ABOUT HIM
WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO FOR US (I mean, it was very, very close, but
still. I am glad we once again show that that shit doesn't work here.) (This also means that the positions I cared about will all be filled by the people I preferred. Double win!)
NaNo. I'm already behind, but I've also already written more in the last two and a half days than in the five months prior, so I'm calling it a win, anyway. LOOK, WORDS. I MADE THEM!
So, you know what bothers me a bit? When people who should
know better by now do that whole asexual =
aromantic and possibly asocial or even antisocial thing. A little earlier this week, I was talking with someone and they said something that I'm hoping was supposed to come out as, "Boy, I wish I were more like you in that I could be perfectly content not being in a relationship because DAMN, they're a lot of drama and heartache!" ... but which came rather out more along the lines of, "Boy, you're so lucky you're a heartless icebitch who's going to live and die all alone because you hate everyone!" Followed by a, "you know, even if you
do ever get into a relationship, you'll have to have sex. It's the law!" Because, yeah, asexuals? Are NOT AT ALL aware of sex being an important part of a relationship to non-asexuals! THEY SOMEHOW MISSED THAT MEMO. It's not like society throws it in our face every day! RRRG. Fortunately, I won't have the opportunity to speak with the individual in question for another few days, which should be more than enough time for me to stop being all snarly about it, now that I've vented my frustrations. (To the individual in question, who'll probably see this eventually: please don't bother apologising. I'll have put it behind me by the time you see this and all you'll manage to do is remind me that I was annoyed. Instead, just don't do it again.)
...AND IN "WHAT HAVE I DONE WITH MY LIFE" NEWS, AS OF THIS WEEKEND I WILL HAVE BEEN PLAYING
FFXI FOR
SEVEN YEARS OH MY GOODNESS and still not a single level 75, though that's not the level cap anymore,
but shut up. This calls for ... something. I don't know what. (AN INTERVENTION??) Thank goodness
FFXIV isn't near as excellent, or I'd really be in trouble now.
(Hi, by the way. I'm back from being a hermit! I would make an intro post for the newcomers, but I already linked to my old one and, really, sadly, nothing much has changed...
Whatever, here's the old one again.)
OH WAIT I AM NOT DONE Halloween! We didn't get anyone looking for candy (MORE FOR ME I only bought one bag this year, though, after last year's turnout), but I am mostly glad that I did not have to WALK HOME. 'Cause it was on a Sunday. And the buses don't run! So, three miles in the dark, alone, past a cemetery. AAAAA but I was saved from being eaten by ghosts and instead me and a few friends sat around watching Halloween-themed movies for a bit and it was fun. Yay!
(Also, I saw
a lot of people wandering around in costume on Saturday. One of them was a Mudkip.)
ONE MORE EDIT I'm going to pull the links from
this music meme at the end of the week, so if you've any interest, you'd best head over.
