A conglomeration of fragments

So today Sibling asked me to go give Yuki a walk because it didn't happen this morning. ( Yay Yuki! )

Other than that... enrolled into one of my classes for next semester, haven't decided on the other. There's a couple I'm thinking about, I need to contact the, you know, enrollment people and ask a couple of things before I decide. But of course it was like midnight by the time I got to that step soooo.... tomorrow, at the earliest. Probably the day after though, because reasons.

ALSO I PLAYED TOOKI'S NEW GAME CHOOK & SOSIG: WALK THE PLANK AND IT IS SUPER CUTE AND CHEERFUL AND PRETTY AND I HAD A GREAT TIME if you like adventure games and/or ridiculous characters now featuring horrible flying goblin children (aka a parrot), definitely pick it up! :D

Seriously brain, why. Why you do this to me.

Ni-chan's grandmother passed away this morning, so that kinda sucked. ( Surprisingly, this is cut for talking about death. )

Apart from that kind of a nothing day. Played some Feel the Snow but not much because UGH BOSS FIGHT I AM SO BAD AT IT. Tried to play two of my new games from the Steam sale, but UGH BUGS - one is a glitchy graphics issue (which I apparently have a lot better than some people, who just get a pink screen, but I'd rather not suffer through it, either), and the other is an old game that won't go into windowed mode and is gross and stretched on my screen - not ratio-stretched, just. It was small and now it is big and you can see the fuzz of pixels, sort of shit. SO THAT WAS ANNOYING.

Anyway, it's ridiculous o'clock, I'mma... go to bed. Yes.

Today was... a day? IDK.

Cleaned the bathroom and the floors out back - both sweeping and then mopping, which was surprisingly tiring. Mainly the sweeping, probably because I was getting under things and stuff, but still. Body. Oi.

Did some art, but it wasn't... really... working too well, ffff.

So um yeah. Orcish Inn. It's a braineater. (I love it so much. :x)

In other news, bureaucratic bullshit is still being a fucking pain in the ass. Currently at the stage where I have to look for work (despite a) being a full time student, and b) being a crazy that can't do too many things without brain falling out) while I wait for them to get back to me re: student claim.

S I G H

The one upside is the lady I was working with today was very much of the omfg that blows, you have to do this because rules so you can still get money, but I really hope it gets sorted on their end soon way of thinking, which was nice.

Other than that I did shopping since I had to be out of the house anyway, and also about an hour of arting, though nothing was finished. Mainly I just decided that that was sucktastic enough for a morning (particularly given how much additional shit I got from my ankle, which was a lot) and just did whatever I felt like. Which was... mostly playing Orcish Inn. >>;;;

...that got long, yeah, I'm tired and rambly time for SLEEP NOW yes. <3

Bluh.

At least today I was up way later than I meant to be for a good reason - a friend of mine is going through a bad patch, so I was sharing some of the shit I know about brain management. ( Read more... )

Other than that... I went on a pretty massive walk today! :D ALSO I spent some time digging out ivy in the garden! I had to lay down to recover from that one, but it was so worth it. :3 Also also I got some work on comms done, and THEN, in a stunning twist of self-care, spent the evening playing a stupid clicky game rather than do more comm work and risk burning myself out.

It was actually pretty good for a stupid clicky game, too! Called Small Town Terrors: Pilgrim's Hook. ( Blather! )

NTS: Write a review on Steam tomorrow, you've been meaning to do that more and it's a good opportunity.

So tired, I swear, uuugh. I finished the art thing, though! And then I had lunch, and then I saved and posted the twenty billion images you need to submit things. And then I had a nap, because homg.

BUT YAY IT'S DONE!! :D Done is so good, yes.

Other than that, I did... very little. Because tiiiired.

( Game things, cute for length. )

I just noticed the cat was hiding in here - she doesn't WANT to go outside at night, but if she doesn't she makes gross messes, so - and because can't, you know, walk, and ALSO can't really hop/use crutches/etc because, you know, cat, I ended up walking her out on my knees. My knees do not like this treatment! The floor is cold, and also there's a step, which. With a wriggling cat, not so fun!

Aaaayway, I got the boobs-version of the art I've been doing finished today, which was great! I'm doing some dressup outfits, for an event, and yeah. Both more and less complicated than pet art!

( Pictures under cut! )

Other than that... I've been playing a lot of 10 000 000 - I got it when I was away, and I played it a bunch, but it was super hard because it's a mouse-only game (it's a port of a mobile game, so not surprising haha), and my trackpad and my wrist hate each other. A lot. So I installed it on the PC today, and I'm either close to or have surpassed where I was at on the laptop already! |D Combo of knowing what I'm doing and mousing being better for my hands, I think. Not that it's a long game, either, but yeah.

I'd keep playing, but I have to be up tomorrow morning and have a shower before we go Out for lunch - it's Father's Day, which, meh, but hey! Dumplings! I am... pretty much never going to pass up free dumplings, I fucking love dumplings. :9 :9 :9 (IIRC they also had bbq pork buns last time, too, omnomnom.)

Today was pretty quiet, which was nice. Didn't leave the house!

Some good things:

1. Played a bunch of games! :D I do like gaming, though keyboards are hard. (See below, heh.) This included The Old Tree* - it's free to play, and only takes about ten minutes (maybe a little longer if you're not as familiar with point and click games as I am). 100% dialogue free, it's just... nice. It's really more like a visual picture book with interactive elements than a game - kinda like a pop-up book, but requiring slightly more thinking than that. Not *much* more, though, I'm fairly sure almost anyone could play through it. :3 Anyway, definitely recommend if you like odd but sweet atmospheric fiction experiences, which is kinda a mouthful but hey. :3

*I played it through Steam, but that's the dev's official site, so. ^^-

2. I made a pav for tomorrow! Yay! :3

3. Hung out with Azy a bunch which is awesome. Times when we're both not at work are a lot fewer than they used to be. :/ Life is dumb, basically, but what can you do. Have fun while you can, I guess! |D

Annoying thing: ( Cut for grump and also long post is long. PS3 controller on PC. )
