I never thought I'd say this, but now I'm rather glad I went to work today. Considering that I found out that my apartment complex had a power outage while I was away. surprised Dodged a bullet. [tup]

Found (and caught) a full odds Gen 4 shiny Electavire last night. It's on a randomized rom unfortunately so I can't, like, keep it or anything, but it's still a good feeling.

All of our talking about ice cream in the Hangout Thread put me in the mood for a milkshake. grin So I was hoping to have a nice dinner at the Steak & Shake that’s right next to the store I work at after I finished my shift… but it’s closed for some reason. surprised D: Thank God I remembered Portillo’s.

After god knows how long, I was able to taste these things again:

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/22a14734_8c70_4daa_9d0a_670cf200e21f.jpg

They don't seem like much, especially now that life-size versions of them exist now, but these things were my childhood. These small little chewy, sour and sweet little hexacircles were literally heaven for me and a real treat whenever I was at a party and these things were bound to be given out in goodie bags after it was over.

P.S: If you buy one of these, eat them piece by piece, preferrably in multiple bites, no matter how small each piece is. I'm fine with Pineapple on Pizza but if you shove all 6 slices of gummy pizza in your mouth I won't ever forgive you.

During the two weeks that my computer was not operational (no thanks to the motherboard suddenly dying x_x), I wrote quite a lot in my journal (my new one with Rin Tohsaka on it) to keep working on writing my new book. A lot a lot. The show must go on, right? And as of last night/this morning, I finally added from my journal to the computer. [tup]

In the weeks since a painful walk to a bus stop in the town near where I live in order to head into the city and buy and play Live A Live's Switch remake for myself, I have now completed three chapters in chronological order: Prehistory, Imperial China (with my current avatar, Lei Kugo, as the successor) and Twilight of Edo Japan (pacifist run using several different guides, chose to follow Ryoma at chapter's end waii). That last one I did tonight at the beginning of the Week of Blood. Pain.

I finally got around to assembling a chainsaw I bought already a year ago. It's going to come in handy, because I need to saw all the firewood I can.

I can rest a bit easier now that I have someone covering one of the shifts I took off for vacation. It isn't much, but at least that's less time I have to worry about not rolling over.

While I was eating a pack of Vegetable Crackers, I stumbled upon a factory defect cracker that was folded during production. I searched up if this was rare or not, and turns out, it's pretty rare! Some guy online sold his folded factory defect Ritz Cracker on EBay for $75!

I was ecstatic.

And then I dropped my factory defect cracker on the ground and it shattered to bits leaving me to 5-Second-Rule the crumbs off the ground in shame.

R.I.P to the folded vegetable cracker

A three-for-one deal today. cool

For the first one, I have finally used up all the plastic knives and forks I have accumulated from my favorite eateries over the years. [tup]

For the second one, no thanks to my work schedule, I had to reschedule my upcoming dentist appointment, so it’ll be on the 20th of this month instead of the 13th like it originally was. Then I realized that actually works in my favor. I want to look good for my anniversary, after all. ;)

For the third one, speaking of schedules, I finally got a nice break. Somebody I haven’t seen for a long time is coming to town soon, and my work schedule is not overwhelmingly busy for a change. surprisedcool[tup]

It does, normally I save my anger for therapy, but it was worth it to see him shrink and walk away.

No, it's kind of normal to say stuff which makes you sound weird every once in a while. You still get surprised at ahem...some of my posts so that shows you're at least a little bit normal.

Beat the Near Future chapter of Live A Live the other day. It was a hell of a ride but you know what? I'd do it all again. I LOVE this chapter. Hot take, I know, since it's pretty divisive, but anyone who says it outstays its welcome can fight me. The later parts in particular hit me hard.

As part of the fun of the Halloween season, I have finished watching Neon Genesis Evangelion. cool A.k.a. the show where the last two episodes are super-bizarre and they say "Congratulations!" so many times, it loses all meaning. tongue

Finally managed to successfully make up a fictional last name for a character. It's surprisingly hard to make up a good last name without using websites(where last names are probably also being taken from there, causing it to be unoriginal too) or using existing ones.
