Troper Updates II, Part II

Go To

In which we get updates from the lives of tropers. Kinda like Twitter with more than 140 characters, but less than a blog or LJ.

Please refrain from excess venting in this thread. Talking about negative emotions is fine but it's best not to dwell on them for too long. TV Tropes is not suited to deal with mental health situations.

DAY 25 OF THE BLACKOUT SEASON

For the first time in 17 months, I ate a franchise burger. But the cost was far too high, and I felt guilty after having eaten it. I walked for four hours around a mall, so my feet were incredibly fatigued by the time I came back home.

Something I didn't comment yet: Lights poofed unexpectedly at 4 am in past Monday, which of course infuriated me.

Well, this is it. I have one month left to publish my newest book. Fortunately, I'm almost done writing it.

I smell magic in the air. Or maybe barbecue.

I guess I got confused by that cosplay fic you put up that one time.

Have you any dreams you'd like to sell?

I've taken to enjoying video game trailers for games I may probably never buy. For instance, I'm looking at Total War Warhammer when I've never played any Warhammer game and...maybe just played a Total War game at a friend's house a long time ago, I don't remember.

Looks pretty polished. Whole bunch of different units, whole bunch of maps, whole much of attacks...sheesh. I played Halo Wars, but it didn't have this level of detail.

It's fun when I can forget about trying to move out and just take time to enjoy things where I am.

aaaaah I have a date tomorrow

I'm not nervous so much as excited, but I am slightly concerned that my phrasing was too vague, and I don't know whether she thinks of it as a date or just "friends hanging out".

GUESS WE'LL SEE

EEEYAAAAARRRRGH! I feel humiliated! Stealing my idea was one thing, but making it look better is like beating a special needs kid! Look at this. The same damn concept. Sexy chick. Tank top. Half-undone pants. Half-sleeve. The exact fucking same pose. And the art quality is better, so nobody will even think it's stolen. I mean, fuck. It's like remaking Waterworld, or Gigli as an actually good movie! Humiliating! How the hell does it make me look?!

Good luck, Moon.

Good work, Girl.

Tough break, Longcoat. :/

So I see a job that looks cool on Indeed.com...

"More than 25 people have already applied to this job."

Why must we fight.

DAY 28 OF THE BLACKOUT SEASON

My family has returned from their weekend trip!But that's the only good news.

The blackout schedule has changed.... and I found out the hard way when lights poofed between 7 and 10 am today. Ugh. At least they'll be 3 hours long only.

Date happened.

Not sure whether it was a date-date or a friends-hang-out date. We had fun. When I offered to hang out again, she was... she approved, but wasn't super enthusiastic.

I might try anyway, she's cute.

What'd you two do?

I'm finding lately that dating requires being up front about what you're expecing...

We went out to a coffee shop in Royal Oak; she had a cappuccino, I got a chai tea and a croissant.

We sat around and talked and got to know each other over the course of, like... I think two hours? Two hours of just chitchat.

She seems nice, though. I think we're at least kinda mentally compatible with each other, though she comes across as pragmatic and rational to the point of being a little bit stiff.

Listening to the soundtrack is not helping.

FFTA was fun, though it started out hard. Kept dying on that one mission and I left the game alone for years....

FFTA 2 was also fun. Laws weren't so restrictive, and there were a lot more jobs.

I like the Gria. Hitting people in the back is so much easier when you can just fly over them.

I've been doing a Marche-only run of FFTA. First time I hit the level cap. I didn't even know this game had a level cap until now.

This "faculty lot" you speak of sounds like a place of great power...

...sexual tyrannosaurus? ;p Does that mean that he's old but he's still hot?

Because Blackmoon will always be hot, but I'm pretty sure he's not that old.
