Saturday, Something Missing Here?

I was the first to wake up this morning.
We'd sort of arranged ourselves in a broken circle: Adam over by the TV, me and my airbed diagonally parallel, with Shelly on the sofa to my left and Ash on the sofa behind me.

Naturally, when I woke up, the first thing I saw were Ash's nostrils lmfao. She looks quite cute in her sleep - she doesn't look a great deal different, there's no weird face distortion like most people, squinty eyes and gaping jaws - nah, Ash looks pretty normal in that sense, but I was below her and her head was tilted, so I could proper see inside her nose. :)
I woke Adam and Ash up - but Shelly was more of a struggle - and I had to resort to practically diving on top of her to do so.

By the time we'd alternated around the bathroom - disregarding Ash of course, because she doesn't do sleepover showers - sorted out all the bedding and airbeds, we brought down my new PS2 and the GH drums.

We kicked it off with some We Love Katamari - level alternations. :)
We took it in turns making huge Katamaris and smashing them into stardust, because we didn't ever seem to beat my older scores. Ash and Shelly really seem to like it - of course, we had to play it because they were both practically begging me - mainly Ash. :)

We ate the cold boxed parmo from last night - and my word, it was epic and heavenly. :)
It was fucking legendary warm, but it's even better cold the next day. Then we broke into the cream cheese and chive pretzels that Shelly hated the smell of - and drank practically all of the Cherry Coke. :)

I sampled a bit of Maximo - and re-fell in love with it. :)
After a few seconds in the first level, and after hearing that old coin noise, I was drooling at it again. Ahhhh, Maximo. Another PS2 classic everyone must own. :)

I played through a few levels, then swapped to Silent Hill 3.
I got really fucking frustrated with it because the opening sequence is stupidly dark and I spent like 20 minutes looking for a door in the wrong place. Gaaaah.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ash, Shelly and I finished off the Guitar Hero: Metallica band career, with the ocassional input from Adam, who was off in his own little world with his iPod.
Then, with reluctance from me - we went to Guitar Hero 5.
Naturally, I refused to play it, it's still one game that hasn't gotten through to me yet. I just watched those three messing around on it - mainly Adam doing a solo drum lark. :)

Today has been fucked. It's only really Shelly who's had any life in her.
I've been in my usual neutral-bordering-content mood - but Ash hasn't seemed herself, and Adam's been really depressed, sat on the sofa with his iPod for an alarming amount of time. I wasn't very happy about it, but I just left him to it.
I tried to cheer Ash up, I cuddled her a lot and always let her decide on what game we'd be playing next. It was all rather off... I feel content, but it there seemed something missing.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Out of the few photos we took together, this is the only reasonable one. They were all at fucked angles and we were always pulling fucked up faces. Even using the timer setting on the camera, we managed to fuck it up. :)
This is a potential photo to go in the photo frame Christine got me. I'm still deciding.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ash went home at 7 - not long after we'd taken that epic photo, and Adam followed her about 20 minutes later.
Shelly was going to go at 10, but she ended up spending the night instead. :D

It was a great combo. After we'd finished cleaning up downstairs, moving the consoles back to where they should be and so on - I got myself the bottle of Jaques and the bottle of WKD for Shelly, two pint glasses and ice - and we played We Love Katamari - co-op mode. :D

It's so fucking weird. Very difficult, and it does indeed require a lot of teamwork, but oddly enough - the two of us together managed to beat my score on the underwater level. All our other efforts fell short a bit, but we didn't ever fail a level together. :)


 
 
   
 

[Blog #244] --- Neutral --- [Tuesday] - Tutorials from the master!

Tutorials from the master!


Today has been rather odd.
I was waiting for Shelly to come - laid downstairs on the sofa. She'd told me she was coming at 12, but she didn't come until almost 1.
It was weird, it's one of the rare occurances where I sit there and proper think about her and how much I love her - naturally I do, I just don't sit and think about it a lot because I'm usually too depressed to - but when she ended up coming, I proper threw myself at her. I hugged for ages then dragged her upstairs and I had my clothes off in like ten minutes flat. Proper weird.

I could tell it was making her excited though - I was in a bit of a weird mood.
After we'd had our special time together, I took the money mam had left us - and I went to ASDA. She told me to get bread and something for us both to eat. We hadn't eaten dinner, and I wasn't even that hungry, so we just bought a jar of hotdogs and some buns for our tea.

Then I got some Pepsi, cheese Doritos, Milkybar yoghurts and a bag of whirly bites. I wanted some nibbles for us to munch on while we were playing games.
We ate the hotdogs when we came back and watched Outtakes TV. We nibbled on the whirly bites and shared out the Milkyway yoghurts. It's been so long since I've had one - they're so sweet and creamy. Really moreish as well, you proper want more than just the one.

We went back upstairs and for some reason, we ended up falling asleep.
Dad woke us both up about an hour or two later - we were both cuddled up on my bed proper asleep. I don't even know why, I wasn't even tired.
I was in a weird mood after that, but Shelly did persuade me to play Guitar Hero with her.

She asked me to give her tutorials. She's struggling on level 7 of GH3 - so I went onto practice mode and loaded up the songs she was struggling with - showed her how you do it, talked her through my techniques and some hints she could use.

Oddly enough, I then was looking through my old scores for the Expert career - and I wasn't happy with some of them.
I haven't played on Expert for ages, so it was weird suddenly jumping back into it - but I managed to upgrade a 3-star ranking song to a 4-star and I upgraded a different 4-star rating to a 5-star - with 98%, no less. :D
Shelly was pleased with me.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm currently playing four games, attempting to get somewhere close to finishing them off:

- Shadow The Hedgehog (GC)
- Banjo-Kazooie (N64)
- Super Paper Mario (Wii)
- Pokémon Ranger: Shadows Of Almia (DS)


Pokémon Ranger is oddly addicting...
Super Paper Mario is a pile of shite, I just want to get it finished off. I'm going for a mastered run - 100% entire. It shall be torture, but it'll look nice on my Backloggery. The two-star rating for the game will look weird amongst the 4-star rated ones though.


Sigh, Dixie is not looking forward to tomorrow.
The only good thing is that I don't have shitty English.
Seriously, when I had decent teachers, I liked it - but as soon as I got to college, I started fucking it all up. :(
 
 
 

   
ZOMG an update - random summer musings
Kitsune no Tora

Drinking: Coca Cola/water
Thinking about: My fanfics
Watching: FullMetal Alchemist: Brotherhood
Reading: fanfiction, thinking about finishing HP6
Annoyed with: My mother and the dog and the cat

Kitsune no Tora is feeling: a little out of it, neutral

Hello hello~ It has been a while. D: I even got bitched at for not updating this, who would've thunk it? XD

Lesse... um, nothing really of importance HAPPENED in the past... however many weeks, as it is summer and I don't have much to do.

Well, I did get married. Sorta. XDDD

I am now Taylor's Tuesday wife~ Happened Monday. XD Let's see if I can find the convo... Here it is:

thoughtless77: LISA
Lisa: WUT
thoughtless77: I am getting enough spouses for each day of the week
thoughtless77: so
thoughtless77: *gets on one knee* Would you be my Tuesday?
thoughtless77: *shot*
Lisa: 8D
Lisa: OF COURSE I WILL BE YOUR TUESDAY <3
thoughtless77: 8D I'll make sure you won't regret it! *blomps(
thoughtless77: **
Lisa: I won't~ *blomps back* <3

"Blomp" was a typo for glomp that I made a while back, by the way. We tend to use it anyway. XD I decided we needed to have names for each other, like how Mima calls Taylor waifu and vice versa, so since Tuesday is "kayoubi" in Japanese we decided on kaifu. :3 Is cute~

...Otherwise, I can't really think of anything monumental or anything. XD;

I opened my own checking account about a week ago, so now I has a debit card. With that debit card, I opened a Paypal account, so I can shop online and stuffs. :3 But I didn't have a whole lot of money in the account since my old savings account is under my mother's name and I can't remove the money and close the account without her prescence (sucks majorly), I couldn't do much with it. But I got my last check from work recently, so I went and deposited that and put the money in the Paypal, aiming to go scour Ebay or something and buy myself a little something something. Unfortunately it seems it takes 3-5 days for the transfer to go through, so I have to wait now. ;_; I wanted to get FF7~ And mebbeh FF8, if I can afford that as well. I WANT MY CLOUD AND LEON FUFFF. 8D I'll have to look again when the transfer goes through. :/

When I went to deposit my check, I headed to Borders as well, looking for the 19th volume of FullMetal Alchemist. But they didn't have it. D8 It was supposed to be out already! Lazy bums. DX But it wasn't a total loss - I decided to get the seventh Harry Potter book, since they had it in paperback. (I avoided buying it when it first came out since the hardcover was like, $35. D: Rip off.) I figured I would finish/re-read the sixth one (I never finished it because I hated the book, but now that I've seen the movie I might as well just read it and get it over with) and finish the series. We have all the other books, might as well finish the collection. XP I'll get to reading that eventually.

Most of my days this summer consist of sleeping, reading fanfiction, talking to Taylor, talking on the forum, and writing. Or attempting to write. :P I have about... I dunno 4 ideas going? They're all Rune Factory 2 fanfiction too, haha. XD It's kinda surprising - I haven't touched the game in about a month, yet I'm coming up with a bunch of ideas. It seems to be my ongoing fandom as of now, not even Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann managed to push it away for long. (Which is EPIC WIN by the way. KAMINA. LEERON. I LOVE THEM. <3 Simon is pretty epic too, especially when he gets older.)  I'll list them~

Duplicity: Longfic that I'm currently posting as I write it. There are currently 2 chapters up, and I'm slowly working on the third. Pairing is Max/Ray~ <3 I'm a little stuck, though, but the idea just WOULDN'T LEAVE ME ALONE so I skipped past it and wrote a different scene. It includes a little plot twist for added fluff and angst. 8D I had to do a little bit of research (and no Taylor, the drink name is not a major part, although it is something I would like to have), which got me SUPER EXTRA EXCITED, so hopefully later tonight-ish or tomorrow morning/afternoon I'll manage to work out the rest in my head and write it down. What I wrote this morning when I first got up (putting a notebook and pen near my bed was a VERY GOOD IDEA) needs a lot of tweaking and adding to now that I've done my research, but I'm happy with what I got down overall.
So far it's not garnering as much interest as my Barrett/Kyle or Jake oneshots, but that's to be expected - Barrett and Jake are the top popular bachelors. There's like, NOTHING on Max at all, and... I think two fanfics (one of which is dedicated to me, lol) involving Ray that I know of. So sad, they're awesome characters. D:

Lifeless: Longfic that I got the idea for A LONG TIME AGO, and started writing A LONG TIME AGO, but it got pushed to the side by little oneshot ideas and Duplicity, which is a lot less involved than this will be. It will be an extremely long fic (at least by my standards, which is somewhere around 30 chapters), with the pairing being Jake/Kyle. I plan on writing the ENTIRE THING (or at least 80% of it) before I begin posting, so it got pushed to the side when Duplicity came along. But I really love the pairing, so it WILL GET DONE. Eventually. <3 It's a lot more difficult of a pair to put together than pretty much any other one, because of Jake's inherent hate of humans, so it's going to be more work. But I don't mind~ I already have a rough outline and a lot of things going, it's juet GETTING IT GOING that is the hard part. the first chapter is written (took me 3 different starts to get one I liked) and the second chapter is started (but I started over at over 1,000 words because I didn't like it, so it's down to like, 300). I've got a starting block, it seems, which probably means that until my oneshot ideas get pushed away/written and Duplicity is finished, it won't get done. My original ETA was late August, but even that is looking a little too soon. XD;;

Sweet Thing: Oneshot, Barrett/Kyle. Pretty much going to be PWP yaoi lemon, but it's not totally hopeless - it takes a long time before getting to the sex. XP As for the premise, just imagine a hot day and melty ice cream. ;3 *shot* I got it JUST STARTED on either Monday or Tuesday (can't remember lol), so that might be a little while, since Duplicity keeps SCREAMING AT ME "GET ME DONE GET ME DONE WRITE MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE." XD;;

Untitled: Undefinte length, college AU. Yaoi lemon, of course~ Everyone will be involved at some point, but it'll center around Kyle, Barrett, Jake, Max, Ray, Rosalind, and mebbeh one other bachelorette, I dunno. XD I love the RF2 bachelors a LOT, it seems. XP Main pair will be Barrett/Kyle, and side pairs will probably arise, along with some love triangles. :3 And probably some kink. XD; I still haven't completely developed the idea or written anything - it will probably end up as one fic, but each chapter could stand on its own and doesn't follow a specific defined plot overall - basically a series of oneshots, all with the same premise and setting. We'll see how it goes.

Untitled: For some reason, I REALLY WANT TO torture myself and attempt a 100 themes. I DUNNO WHY, but I do. XD So I've been looking for lists that would fit the series (although I could do AUs for the ones that don't fit into the premise of the game). I found one that I like and bookmarked it, but I haven't fully decided to do it yet. I'll do it when the urge gets too great or I finish Duplicity/Lifeless, we'll see. It depends on if I want to distract myself because I get stuck or something, that seems to be helping moderately with Dupliciity right now.

....That's all I can think of right now. XD There's some old half-baked oneshots saved on my computer as well - almost all abandonded ideas for The Village Square's contest - so if I feel the need I might try and fix/finish those eventually as well.

At this rate, I'm going to have a loooooot of RF fanfics.... XD;; With RF3 coming out either at the end of the year or beginning of next year, that'll probably grow even more. XD ARGH ILU RUNE FACTORY <3

...That's all I can think of to talk about for right now, so goodnight, digital abyss. <3

Dozing...


Today was another day where we ventured up to Hemlington. :)
Now it's becoming easier for me to get to Ash's, we're going to alternate a lot more. Variation be nice.

I took my Cooking Mama along with me today - knowing how much Ashleigh and Shelly both like playing it.
The three of us took it in turns to make different recipes. It seemed we were just competing to see who could fail the least, rofl.
I'm the only one of us who ended up with a single gold medal.
What can I say - I'm legendary at making scrambled eggs. :D

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I barely had any sleep last night - due to weird sleep patterns and fucked nightmares.
And of course - accidents.

Thus, I was falling asleep in the chair, the flashing colours of Guitar Hero: Metallica were making me very drowsy.
Ashleigh suggested that I go and have a lie down in her bedroom. Shelly practically forced me out of the room, lmao.
It was hilarious - I have one of the most contagious yawns ever - I had Ashleigh, Shelly AND Denham yawning every five seconds, and it was doing their tits in. :D

Ash's bed is really comfortable - but her room is bloody freezing.
I'd have felt rude actually GETTING IN her bed, so I was just laid on top of the duvet, basically cuddling myself and her pillows to keep myself warm.
My feet were the coldest though, I'd taken my shoes off - so I sort of buried them down the side of her bed by the shelves to keep the draught away from my toes.

I love the smell of Ash's pillows. It actually smells like you're cuddling up to Ash herself.
Ash and Shelly both have really comforting scents.
Shelly's excites me, whilst Ash's calms me down a bit. Depends what mood I'm in. :)

Either way, I didn't sleep much, as far as I'm aware.
I think I was drifting in and out of sleep.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ashleigh came and woke me up at about half 5 and we ate sandwiches and crisps.
I was proper ravenous though - I was still hungry after I'd finished. Typical me. :(

We then went back to the Wii - giving it some more attention with a fuckload of Guitar Hero battles.
Shelly and I get really competitive.
If she wins over me by fluke - e.g. a bastard LEFTY FLIP - I won't let her keep her victory for long, because I'll select another song and kick her arse within seconds. :D



 
 
 

   
Good Morning?
Sunrise is now an hour later than when I first started getting up for sunrise. My classes are NOT an hour later, so for most of the week, I'm still getting up that early to do some reading before getting ready (I use the shower and microwave in the mornings, and since most of my housemates are not up that early, I try to wait until 7:30 on the one and 8:00 on the other). But, today, I waited until a little after seven to get up.

And! And! Apparently I just need to do more to exhaust myself during the day! I slept 'til 6:40 this morning (mind, I went to bed somewhere in the ballpark of midnight - the weekends are supposed to be the time when I catch up on lost sleep)! For the last week, I've been waking up around 4:15 in the morning, which is rather frustrating, because it takes awhile to get back to sleep.

Among my Things To Do this morning was laundry. Our house is set up so that there are three doors that open onto the porch. The guys' floor is upstairs, ours is downstairs, and we share a laundry room. It's been fabulously nice out, so when I hauled my hamper next door, I left our door open.

My supercute RA emerged from her room for a shower a little while later, and was startled to see the door open. I was startled to see a towelclad PocketHulk appear on the front porch while I was loading clothing into the washer.
PH: "Oh, good, you're doing laundry."
PF: "Um, yeah." (Thinking, "good?") "How are you?"
PH: "I'm good. I was going to the bathroom, and I saw the door wide open, and I was freakin' out, but it's just you doing laundry."
PF: *pause* "You're worried about the door being open, but you don't care about standing on the porch in a towel."
PH: "Eh." She shrugs, looks around at the other six houses that we can see. "There's just the one little kid*. It's a Saturday, nobody's up yet."

This is at 10:30 in the morning. :)

*The house next to ours is one of the ones designated for non-trads. The students living there have dogs and at least one toddler.
