New Year's Eve!
Dec. 31st, 2016 05:33 pmAnd we're doing our usual movie marathon -- Ghostbusters this year, as I said -- so I'm gonna do a quick post now. Major events of the day:
-->Finished up Chapter 9 of "Remembering You!" Victor's made a major breakthrough in his case, and things are looking up. Next chapter -- Nan Sharpe, Nell & William Van Dort, and Victoria & Christopher White all collide! >:D
-->Had a long drive up to Cranston, including up Rt 1 and through some of the hilliest and twistiest streets I've ever been on. We were looking for a house that wasn't really worth it in the end, but at least I got in quite a bit of good driving time! And no major incidents -- just me going a bit fast here and there. (And half the time that was due to gravity on hills.) So I'll take it.
-->Played some more Vampire: The Masquerade -- Bloodlines. Discovered door I went through actually led to the main sewers, so backtracked and found my way through a Nosferatu haven to the right direction. Had to deal with more of those head-claw creatures than I could count, plus spinning blades of doom in a sewer channel that I died twice to before finally managing to get Harry onto the ladder out of the water. And then I had to figure out a path UP another set of spinny blades (after blocking them with barrels to stop me dying) and -- well, I died twice to a bum-rush of monsters after trying to take one out with my gun at a distance, so I stopped there. At least I know right where I need to go now. Also can clearly see why people don't like this level. >( Hopefully I can find Gary and the other Nosferatu soon. . .
Not too much else to report on -- we'll be having supper in a bit, and starting with the 80s Ghostbusters (I think anyway). So I'd better head out now, I think. Everybody have a good night, and I'll see you in the New Year!

Honestly, I've been feeling a little "meh" about the birthday parties in general, as I can't think up any interesting new twists for them. . .maybe this year I'll do fewer more "general" parties. Like maybe some holiday-themed get-togethers instead (kinda miss the Halloween bash).
