Satisfaction at the 17 thousand mark

I just visited Machinations yesterday. It has hit the 17k mark for readers. Wow.

World of Warcraft

My account died. My uncle got bored and stopped paying for my WoW account. What to do? Get a free account! Just download the 2 GB expansion for Lich King, then play on a seperate server. Anyone interested to play, just tell me in school. The server has been down recently, though.

Anyway, I'm severely jet-lagged from my vacation. Flew a 12 hour flight to Switzerland, but counting the time-zone thing (fuck geog)it's more like 20 hours. In Switzerland, I sent a postcard back home. It was snowing, and -7C, and I really shouldn't have brought pants there. Paris was warmer, though.

Lost my ski mask, tired, no fucking keyboard to type with other than an AZERTY keyboard, no gaming, generally a very fun experience.

The McDonalds at Paris is fucking pro.
The actual order:
One Big Tasty Meal, fries, with evian water.
2 Big Mac Meals, fries, coke
One chicken wrap
One salad.

What we received:
3 big tasty meals, potato wedges, 3 coke.
One chicken wrap
No salad.
One Filet-O-Fish(wtf?)

What we paid for:
Nadda. The cashier forgot.

So...yeah. That was a waste of 2 weeks.

Obsession

Anyone knows a cure for obsession? I need help. No seriously. Anyway, in two days, my uncle will rip my soul from my body. I can't play Okami anymore because he wants the Wii back. Blech. I keep staring at it... it tempts me to play again, but if I can't finish in 48 hours before my flight to Switzerland, I'm fucked. At last count it took me... 62 hours to clear, but then again, I don't need to find every single secret again so... i'm just gonna post a picture now, like I always do.

ehh... wrong picture. That's not Okami.

This is...



I'm really spending too much buying this stuff. I bought the official illustration collection as well, and the super smash bros soundtrack, and the okami soundtrack, nearly a thousand songs in my ipod nano now.

Now...I'm just going to say goodbye for two weeks. But if anyone wants free Diablo 2, just ask. I bought it yesterday in case i ever want to play Diablo 3

Okay...

Back from my NaNoWriMoing Hiatus, made 65 thousand. It was much harder than I thought. Anyway, look out for the paperback! Not coming anytime soon, though.

I recently went for the TGIO party for NaNoWriMo, or otherwise, Thank Goodness It's Over Party. It was quite fun there, really. Well, except for the reading of excerpts. My excerpt sounded something like... I dunno... maybe involving a girl looking somewhat like this...

And a lot of /. Yes, the term is /.

Then a lot of award givings. I won the most Annoying poster award for causing the forum to be furnaced. What's furnaced? Furnace is to delete. Yes, my signature did it.

And I still haven't given up on pokemon yet. That's reserved for next year, where 100k and beyond is more possible. My story slipped slightly out of pokemon, and subtly into wolves. Basically, use an absol, take off the horn, and voila, an arctic wolf.

Don't FUCKING ask why that's my MSN dp.

Onto gaming, I haven't even been online. Man. I spent so much time on Okami. Yes, spent 1 hour stoning in a jump that's FUCKING IMPOSSIBLE. Perhaps you should not ask people to jump from a ledge to something DIRECTLY BELOW IT, when any miss means you FALL TO YOUR FUCKING DEATH.

However, there's a simple and yet idiotic reason. That was the last thing seperating me from 10x damage, invulnerability, inkfinity(no typo, means unlimited ink to use) and a whole lot of crap like max money. Which I can now use to learn the brown fury attack.

There are two learnable attacks in Okami, the rest are more or less already available( seeing as I completed the game 3 times)
Golden Rage Attack: For 1000000 yes, allow you to piss on your opponents for damage and money. Problem is, maxing out a perfect battle gives you 2000 yen so...

Brown Fury Attack: Use your head, jackass. 100 times more yen to buy this attack so... CRAP YOU CAPCOM!!!

Yours,
Clarence.
