I keep intending to type up some big long entry on how things are going since I haven't done that in a while, but I find that I lack the drive to do such, mostly because things are the same 'ol as always, which means I'm working constantly (more than last year at this time too! About 19 1/2 hours just yesterday and today. I get to work both jobs tomorrow!) and I spend the rest of the time screwing around, though this year I'm screwing around with nifty holiday events in CoH/V. Yay for presents! Boo for evil snow monsters that spawn in groups of 10 at +1 level and include a Boss and two Lts.! seriously, if I weren't robbing presents from lowbies in Steel Canyon searching for presents in a lower-level zone I'd be toast.
Anyway. I've gotten so many games in the past two months that I've hardly touched because I'm working or too tired to play anything and just want to sleep that it's starting to become a problem to actually find one to play. Aside from the half-hour i set aside for Animal Crossing DS after I get home from work I've got CoX Holiday events, I've got lots of yummy Fire Emblem goodness yet, plenty of Suikoden Tactics left, We <3 Katamari, FFIV Advance (TOO EASY! Cagnazzo went down in less than a minute! ;_;) I've barely scratched the surface of Dragon Quest 8, I haven't even unrapped Metroid Prime 2 and I bought that the day after Thanksgiving.... And I feel obligated to finish them all. Even the ones that I don't ever want to touch again like Star Ocean 3 and Radiata Stories. :/
Normally this would be a good weekend for gaming, but not this year. Since Christmas is on Sunday, I don't get an extra day off, and since I didn't work thanksgiving at the Theatre... well, guess what's pretty much the only business open on Christmas Day. :/ I keep telling myself that it's worth it because I get New Years Eve/Day off, but I'm not buying it since I don't have any place to go anyway and someone will probably try to get me to work for them. although I did finally get the answering machince I got from my sister set up todayso I don't ever have to answer the phone again...
Which brings me to the original intention for this update that I've been avoiding: My birthday. It sucked. I got 3 'Happy Birthdays' from my family, two cards, the answering machine from my sister, and $50 and the second season of Smallville from my parents. And a crappy cake that was more of a joke than a serious gesture. I don't know if it's that after you turn 22 getting presents becomes unfashionable or something, but I really did feel mostly ignored, especially since we had to do Christmas stuff that night. Of course, I feel ignored most of the time anyway so I'm used to it.
Anyway: the Sequal, this is far longer than I intended and I have to shower and stuff so I can play some FFIV or something 'afore bed.
