Ramble….. Wow, I feel incredibly behind in most everything and emotionally dead all at once. I’ve read everyone’s blogs and have no idea how to respond to any of you. I do alot of backspacing and stuff, but never quite come up with a response. I was like this too on the Customer Service Server today, slow day and got talking with some co-volunteers and just kind of did a lot of backspacing and hand flopping into my lap on quite a few subjects. I really need to get back to work on Legacies; I think I really did choose a bad time to create and run the game. I don’t have time for it to be brutally honest. I think once I finish up these CRSs, I’m going to have to say “No New Members” until I can feel caught up and in control of my life again.
Y’know… it’s funny. When I started really listening to the radio when I was twelve, I ended up at a radio station that played current rock. They were bought out eventually and made into this weird Jazz station and I ended up on a Pop Station I listened to until I graduated from HS. Moved to college, found another pop station. I stopped listening to it when I moved… move down and in the six months since I stopped listening, I can’t stand them anymore. I had a hard time finding something to listen to and then I found it. The same station I loved when I was twelve has gone back to straight rock. I must say, Linkin Park, POD, and all those really have started growing on me. (And unlike the Popular Stations down here they actually TELL you what you’re listening to and stick to the order they tell you if they go on a 20-song-no-interruptions program, so I’m not like “I really love that song, but no clue who it’s by. Oh well.”) Would you believe they’re the ONLY station down here that I’ve found that plays some of my favorite bands? lol
I am no closer to gettting my domain up. The places I REALLY want to go through only accept credit cards and I’ll be damned if I can get one of those. They ALL say I don’t have enough credit history, even for the Student ones – which I thought were for first-timers. So, I’m going to be waiting on getting them and just holding the course I’m on – get the bills taken care of and catch up a little on that massive “I want” list I’ve been nursing forever. Then, once I’m sure I’m going to keep this job, I’m going to take out a loan and get myself a new computer. I’m getting VERY sick of the blue-screen-of-death ™ and am going to get something nice and custom and not something cheap and generalized. I have so much superfluous programs that don’t appear to do much more than make me crash. I have two Support programs… one that will take you to this weird chat/MB setup and another that is supposed to check for driver updates and crap while you’re online. Neither work and both crash me.
I have sample programs that came with my computer, I don’t use them and can’t uninstall them. So hopefully by doing the loan thing I can get my credit rating up AND get something nice.
I’ve been writing Yu-Gi-Oh fanfiction in my time off. Jasson and I have gone back to our roots and writing it in our “shard” style that Jinx and I worked in. By the time we’ve tossed the chapter back and forth you can’t tell who wrote what anymore. I have the main “shard” for chapter two, and I don’t give a bloody hell if it seems Mary-Sueish – anyone who goes after me for it can kiss my ass – I’m introducing an original character. I suppose the first chapter is pretty boring, since I start it at an classy-type auction. Hopefully Chapter 2 will net me some feedback on it, since I have some more action in it.
Gotta find a new design. I still love my Rikku design, but I need something new. I dunno, maybe I’ll do a Yu-Gi-Oh layout, since that’s my current obsession. Or maybe I’ll do something else. I nearly shit a brick when I went into my favorite store and discovered they’d increased their anime selection, but only the DVDs. They have all the RW DVDs and the YGO DVDs come out in September. Bills or burn a paycheck or two on DVDs? That is the question. …. Ramble
