I have been eaten by Scriblenauts. I am so damn addicted to that game. And yes, I really did spend the day going "Oooh oooh Dad watch me do this. Are you watching? STOP FALLING ASLEEP." I need to actually play KH: Manynumbersgohere. Brother also got me one of the DS Castlevania games. Apparently X-Play liked it so it should be all right.

Sadly, Father and Sis were confused on the Avatar box set so I will have to get that later. But I do have the two R2 sets so far and bunch of new Geass novels. Thankies Graham!

I got no sleep last night and for some reason my legs are really hurty, but it's still a nice Christmas. Bro hasn't thrown a fit over anything.
tempestuously: ([wolf] how about a taste of my fangs?)
I wish I didn't hate the new VK art so I could actually use it in icons, but I really truly think it looks off, especially the latest cover pic. That could have been really sexy too.

I am so restless this week. I was looking forward to going to see the lights tonight but apparently my roomie has forgotten about that venture. I still don't have the belt for my father and I'm planning to leave work early tomorrow to drive home and get it. And I still haven't sent out my family Christmas cards, but I've pretty much decided those are going to go out the day after Christmas. I just want to do something and I don't know what. Though Elisa's tasty cookies did help some. Mmm cookies.

I'm also really irked that asshole Michael Vick is receiving a Courage Award from the Philadelphia Eagles for "turning his life around" and "getting out and playing when everyone is bashing him." FOR MONEY. This is not an altruistic action. The man wants to get paid. Who gives a shit if people hate you if you get paid. That's not courage. Fine, second chances and whatever but don't give him a fucking reward. Ugh, I hate the Eagles and everything they represent.

ETA: My neighbors have just gifted me with ENDLESS COOKIES. ZOMG IT'S A COOKIE-PALOOZA UP IN HERE.
tempestuously: ([tutu] a sorta fairytale)
I am in a Christmas mood because, despite appearances, I actually love Christmas, mostly because I like seeing people happy with things I give them. So today I shall do my usual list of xmas songs I love and those that make me take a pick-axe to my radio. Also, this movement for a svelte Santa needs to die a painful death. Oh and I like sappy Christmas music or things that sound cool so don't recommend any edgy Christmas songs because chances are, I won't like it. The List )

My random AU RP has made me want to switch my non-hybrid werewolves in Heritage into vampires since I do so little with the werewolf elements for the non-hybrids. That and I like the werewolf/vampire not!romance idea it would induce. I'll have to debate.

Also, I might be a little late on this, but man Michael Jordan was a douche in his Hall of Fame speech. I came across this story while hearing about Jordan sueing Jewel for using his sneakers in some add.

In random non-sequitors, reading various things in various places reminded me of something. I like to say things on this journal. Many of the things I say are very political and welcome to debate. Personal things (such as my moods and why) ... not so much. I say things to get them off my chest. I neither want sympathy or someone to tell me their take on said personal things. It's a little thing but I thought it should be clarified.
tempestuously: ([tutu] safe in my arms)
I enjoy how LJ has to inform me that the item in my profile is indeed a snowflake cookie.

I truly thought I was going to miss my assignment tonight since I got absolutely no sleep last night. Dearest Nikkolaus decided it would be a plan to scratch at my door for no reason all night long. When I let her out, she merely scratched at the door to get back in and vice versa. I'm going to exchange her for Louis I swear. Damn cat. She's lucky I love her.

Speaking of love, the winners of the GRAND COOKIE POLL are Raspberry Snow Bars, Lemon Bon Bons, Flooded Sugar Cookies (watch me fail epically with the frosting) and Cherry Chocolate Cookies. This included the expresso and the meringue cookies will be made later this week for insta-shipping. I am screening comments so do comment with your lovely addresses as to where your cookies may be sent. Also, I am doing cards so even if you don't want cookies, if you wish a card, provide addy as well.
tempestuously: ([cat] too awesome for you)
So I think I fail at life when it comes to my Lelouch figma. The picture shows that I can take the head off the neck post or whatever to switch with the Zero helmet. But I just can't figure out how. I've figured out everything else. I don't even really want to put the Zero mask on it; I just want to know that I can do it and that the evil box and its evil picture instructions aren't lying to me. Because I'm starting to think they are. Truth be told, I prefer sticking the Zero helmet on the cat.
tempestuously: ([tb]remember me when the west wind blows)
Oh yes I love being home with the family. I don't believe I slept more than an hour last night. That must have had something to do with the fact that my brother woke up at 2 a.m. and decided to spend the rest of the morning chatting to his friends on the computer. Who were, somehow, also awake and probably tormenting their families. His response when they drag me out of bed at 9 a.m. and I am less than bright-eyed and bushy-tailed: "Are you that light a sleeper?"

I think I will just conclude this message by wishing my f-list a VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS. I has a figma, Terra e and an artbook, I am a happy kitten.

ETA: I also just found the translations of Mutuality. Best Christmas present ever. I guess I can forgive you, Okouchi. ^_^
tempestuously: ([tb] like a tiger to tame)
Well, I have sent gifts, made cookies until the cows came home and listened to every holiday song I know... and now I just want to crawl under my bed and stay there. This happens every year. Sigh.

But as the above is always irrelevant, I have Crabs for Christmas for everybody else. Enjoy.
tempestuously: ([cat] too awesome for you)
Christmas cookies are sent, greeting cards are finished and now all that's left is buying gifts for the family. Ow Christmas has broken me. But I had fun.

Also, I have epic tales of WANK to share. But I will make a filter to do so just to be on the safe side. Inquire within if you want to be included. It is sure to brighten your day with WTFery. You will never guess what this wank is about. Hint: It's not fandom or LJ. )

I am a bit disappointed in something, but that comes and goes, and I have to learn that not everyone will see things the same way. Still, this would be less of an issue if words like "love" weren't bandied around the Net like ping pongs. Try to reserve it for when you mean it, people.
tempestuously: ([not!kamui] i keep this for trauma)
Well, I got reamed today but otherwise prediction 1 was correct so I can breathe normally again.

I've been having a bad week, but your gift made me smile muchly, Graham. Even though I confused it with the doujin I ordered from Thailand, which will probably never see the light of day. Alas.

I might have a marathoning partner for this weekend.
tempestuously: ([eee] the nature of his mind to hope)
I am debating commenting to something as always. We'll focus on how RL goes first. Won't be back until 9ish or so tonight since have late-night work.

Sorry for ditching everyone last night. But in addition to being a nervous wreck, I had already exhausted myself with two nights of staying up until 4 a.m. and then going to work at 10. It doesn't work out that way, I have to remember that.

Anyway, I have decided that people I can't decide what to get for Christmas are getting cookies. I will be sending an assortment of popppy seed cookies, white chocolate apricot almond cookies and one special type. Since I'm buying ingredients this weekend, I want to know which special type of cookies is most desired. So please vote in the cookie poll. Note, do not vote in the cookie poll if you don't want cookies. I already have a few people that I'm definitely sending to, but if anyone else wants a cookie gift, they can drop a note here too.

[Poll #1313450]

Oh, I forgot my crack news of the day. Apparently "Womanizer" is put on repeat as a torture device in some prison camps. Wow. I didn't think it was that bad. It must be the synth.
tempestuously: ([as] no remorse cause i still remember)
I don't mind night driving. I don't mind snow driving. But I draw the line at night snow driving. I'll just pay the friggin' fine for my Red Box movies.

Also, I think I'm the only person on earth who can manage to injure themselves in a fitting room. Who the hell designs a super small fitting room with stucco walls anyway. I tore the shit out of my knuckles.

Also, this is that time of year where I ask all of Nayami's cherished friends to tell me what you want for Christmas so I don't send you my cats or something.
tempestuously: ([cain] the devil is in the details)
Back from work and watching Mythbusters prove the existence of a steam-powered machine gun. That was sweet.

I realized something while I was driving home, as I always do. I hate "White Christmas." It is my number one most despised Christmas song. It even tops "Santa Baby." So the question I pose to you, my friends list, share with me your most hated Christmas music. I plan to compile of soundtrack of the worst Christmas has to offer. Oh and if you will be so kind to contribute, do share why you hate said music.

My hatred for White Christmas is based on my general dislike of the composition, while Santa Baby is just icky to me. You should not sexualize Santa Claus. That is wrong.

Spent my sore night looking for the best anime xmas videos.

Host Club: 12 Pains of Xmas
-If only for the gangster boss.

Naruto: 12 Pains of Xmas
-You know you want to see Sasuke bitching about xmas lights and in-laws.

KH: Carol of the Bells Transiberian Orchestra Version.
-Note, I was stunned to find such an amazing video among the KH collection. It simply rocks!

The First Noel
-As Bro pointed out, they look like a real-life WK band.

I couldn't think of any other songs that would produce decent vids.
tempestuously: ([kamui] going over here now)
I almost hit a Christmas tree today. It just rolled out of someone's car. If it would have damaged my car, I would have sued.

Work just loves sending me to terrifying places when they know I have no sense of direction. Ok, period button, what is your issue lately?

I still have watched nothing. I am that awesome. I need to buy x-mas gifts. Losers, y'all need to tell me what you want otherwise you're getting gay porn. Speaking of not gay porn, I need to be amassing that pimpin' post I keep putting off.
tempestuously: (krysyuy: yuuta xmas)
I worry this Christmas will be a little blah for me. My ankle is still killing me from yesterday. The highlight has been finding the perfect gift for most of my friends and family. Such as my father's $70 Raven's jacket. I also found my "Muppet's Christmas Carol," my favorite holiday movie tied with "Santa Claus: The Movie." Not to be confused with that corny Tim Allen joke. I knew I had recorded the movie on one of my anime tapes, but after going through Yugioh, Fullmetal Alchemist, Samurai Champloo, Naruto and Yugioh GX, I was coming up empty. Then I decided to give my second FMA tape another shot. I found the Muppets right after Nina's gruesome death. What makes it more disturbing is that there's about five seconds between the end of the Muppets and Ed collapsing on a bloody wall. Happy holidays indeed.

TV needs to have more Christmas movies. Ever since it's become less PC to wish someone a Merry Christmas, television has taken to just showing blockbusters rather than holiday flicks. It's a shame. What's a marathon of "Daddy Daycare" have to do with the holidays? At least "A Christmas Story" fits, even if I can only watch it once each marathon before I want to take that Red Rider to my skull.

I hope everyone else is having a good holiday of whichever. Maybe I should get to the wrapping. Mmmm, Kazuki has a beautiful voice. *swoons to miyu!Atobe*
