Happy Samhain!

Or, if you insist, Happy Halloween. Personally I prefer Samhain, since it's been around longer and it sounds classier, but there you are.   Won't be doing much tonight -- I'll be in my "Killer Masquerade" costume, watching CSI, and scaring the trick-or-treaters that come to the door -- but I've settled on my NaNoWriMo subject: Break of Day. While it won't be the NaNo website, I'm using it as an excuse to try and break my year-long writer's block. Seriously, it's taking so long that it's crimina

Finally!

Got Seneca's Keep looking somewhat like it's old self. =D   In other news, I'm gearing up for NaNoWriMo, and have begun work on my Short Stories Contest entry. It'll be entitled "Dreams of Darkness," and hopefully I'll have it up in a couple of weeks. (And for those of you that are wondering, yes, it will tie into Wings )

Happy Days!

It took longer than I anticipated, but BZP has returned!   I'll be working on restoring my stories. I'll mostly focus on the epics that are still in progress, like Wings and Break of Day, and I'll link to my old library and old topics for all the rest, since I don't want to repost all of that when I've got a perfectly-good archive sitting around.   As for my sticking-around, well, that's up to debate. I've been spending more time on other forums during the upgrade, so if things don't work out

One Hour Of Portal 2 Later

I'm feeling very pleased with myself and watching Transformers: Prime online.   Zen's currently trying to get through one of the earliest testing chambers (he started about ten minutes ago -- he's asking for my help but I'm telling him he's gotta figure it out himself), and I'm on Chapter 2 so far. After getting Reach in a few weeks, I'll know what to buy next -- The Orange Box.   B)   (PS: Anyone with Portal 2 & Live care to trade Gamertags for Co-op?)

I Knew It!

That thing Zen was all secretive about?   Apparently he went and preordered Portal 2 for the 360 behind my back.   WOOT   (and I still have all my money so Reach is still on track to reach (xD) my game shelf in May =D)

I Know My Brother's Weakness

Chibi-style Transformer drawings. >=D   (Of TFA Skywarp, anyway.)   Speaking of him, he's been awfully secretive about something he did at the mall over the weekend. Apparently he's not telling me any details until tomorrow, but I have my suspicions that it has something to do with Portal 2, since he asked a lot of questions about Power to the Player before he went there ...

Silence Broken; Metal Progress Report

Thanks to the Breaking the Silence party that was after school, I can talk without guilt. =D   That being said, I figure I might as well give you a report on how my metal work is going. Here's the short version: Skyrim Pendant: Still having technical difficulties Glass Nuva Symbols: I'm currently making metal molds of the Gali and Tahu ones, which will let me make multiple versions of them. The other four are on the way, but at the rate they're taking, I probably won't have the proper molds u

Best Introdump Ever?

Series: Transformers: Animated Episode: A Bridge Too Close: Part I Characters: Starscream and his clones: Skywarp, Thundercracker, Sunstorm, Ramjet, and Slipstream Situation: Starscream has an army of clones. Too bad they're a bunch of psychological loose cannons   [/geek]

Just As A Heads-up

Tomorrow is the National Day of Silence, which I've been observing ever since I heard of it. During that time, I will be off of AIM, most likely XBL too, and my posts on various forums will be kept to a minimum.   Just letting you know.

April Fool's

Got a few jokes up my sleeve to use on Zen. >=D   Anyway, today's probably my last day on BZP for a bit, unless I can somehow get Internet access on the cruise ship. Hopefully when I get back I'll find that the mysterious quietness in the Wings review topic has gone away.   [/subtle hint]

I Sense A Wellspring Of Ideas Coming

Why?   Simple, I'm going on a Mexican cruise over spring break, and going somewhere warm and outside the continental USA tends to fire up my creative nodes.   I'm expecting to have a lot of my Writer's Block done away with when I come back, if last year's Hawaii trip was any indication of things. =D   (Also, no, I'm not going yet; first week of April)

Birthday-ness

Technically my mom's birthday was yesterday, but since today was the day my aunts could show up for dinner, yah. ;D   And my brother turns 13 next week.   ...

The H S P E

Normally I'd complain about the whole state-testing thing, especially since I took the SAT on Saturday (hah, how ironic), but I passed them last year, so I have no need to take them ever again.   =D I get to sleep in the rest of the week! Yay!

So Pokemon Black

Got my copy today (after being orientated about a possible gig at an animal shelter), along with 1600 Microsoft Points, which were later spent on War For Cybertron DLC. And aside from a few minor complaints, mostly about the pixelly-ness of some of the graphics, I'm already in love with it.   Though then again, I loved all the RPGs in the series (not so much about Mystery Dungeon, but meh), so that's no surprise.   ALSO YAY NO MORE CHIBI AVATARS

Spoke Too Soon

WHY? WHY DID I HAVE TO OPEN MY MOUTH AND SAY THERE WASN'T ANY SNOW?!   Now it's been just over twelve hours and there's snow on the ground, with more on the way.   Why can't it be summer already?

End In Sight

Gaaah, the long weekend's almost over. -.-   .. on the bright side, though, I've got Pokemon Black preordered, played a lot of War For Cybertron, finished a chapter for one of my fanfics (not one on here, sorry), and there hasn't been a lick of snow in my region.

Long, Busy Weekend

I have Friday, Monday, and Tuesday off. Normally I'd spend that long weekend writing and hitting Xbox Live (especially since that weekend will have my brother being out of the house a lot), but since there's a slight possibility that I'll be spending a bit of time in Portland, perhaps I won't be on as much.
