Well finally!
Well, the xbox she is here! I also got to experience my first midnight game release. It was everything Eric promised it would be. "A bunch of guys standing around waiting for midnight to happen" I was one of four girls, and this included the lady behind the counter selling stuff. Yeah, I figured Final Fantasy would've had more girls turn up. Ah ( Read more... ) -
Rock throwing or not
I did something, well not smart the other night. A number of weeks ago a friend mentioned that I was being spoken badly of over on Cody's Live Journal. It wasn't a huge surprise I'm sorry to say. At first I didn't think anything of it, but it seemed to ferret it's way into my brain and make a nest there. So, the other night I rolled up my socks and ( Read more... ) -
Monday...oh yay
Well, for as nice as the weekend was, this week's off to a meh start. Guess they can't all be winners. Maybe it's the rain. Maybe it's the customers being their delightful selves. Maybe it's the fact that the boss is behaving like a douche...again. I dunno, but it's something. Which is sad, considering that the weekend was actually rather nice ( Read more... ) -
Happy Chú Xī!
So what if it's a week late? The people at Chinatown Austin didn't seem to mind a bit. This weekend was the New Years festival at the Chinatown here in town. The place was decked out with lanterns and cabbage and whatnot. The festival was going on yesterday, but today was the big Lion and Dragon dance (fireworks included) so I decided today was the ( Read more... ) -
Why why why why why?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
Why do you do this to me universe? Why?! It's like you think I need an extra kick to the teeth for good measure. Last night, while wandering around Xbox Live I noticed something about the new Final Fantasy. I figured I'd take a peek, and what did I find? But a delicate morsel that turned quickly into sour grapes! That's what! It's not fair!So, for ( Read more... ) -
Names are pretty
Well, one of the things I've been kind of dreading has finally happened. Eric's tv is all fix'ed. His precious large screen, flat panel, high def tv will be at home and I won't see him again for quite some time. This of course means he'll be taking his xbox as well. It makes perfect sense. Why plan on my regular tv when there's better to be had ( Read more... ) -
Pretty always equals expensive!
You know, I'm as contrary as the day is long! I've been missing costumes recently. Renaissance costumes mainly. Now, the act of sewing can be, for me, one of the most stressful activities on God's earth. Yet, I still find myself wanting to make costumes. Scratch that, I find myself wanting to have costumed. I enjoy wearing costumes like nobody's ( Read more... ) -

Quick thoughts
So tomorrow ♪"I'm off to see the doctor, the doctor who'll drill on my tooth!"♪ Lucky me right? Yeah, I'm more anxious about it than anything, especially when it comes to the cost factor. The office paperwork said it could be anywhere between $800-1800 depending. O_O!!! Yeouch! Are you kidding, what on earth could possibly make something like that ( Read more... ) -
The end is nigh!
Well, we're on the last day of the decade (it sounds strange to me too). I suppose this means a re-cap is in order. Only, how do you recap an entire decade? At the ending of the last one, I was preparing to leave for college. I didn't really know much about cosplay or anime. I'd had my first boyfriend. I didn't realize how much I didn't know. I ( Read more... )
