Okay Enough Friday

crossover_chickAnother mostly quiet day of mostly roster maintenance stuff, though there were a few glitches here and there (mostly from having a few envelopes dropped off for processing) -- still, I've had much worse Fridays, so I shan't complain too much. Made it through the day, now have the weekend, that's the important thing!
Anyway, round-up of the afternoon:
-->Another five rounds of the beanbag game -- Mom won the first two games, I won the second two, and Dad won the last one. Poor Dad was REALLY OFF today, hence the one win. I suppose I shouldn't complain, led to me winning two games. . .
-->Got downright CHILLY during the game, though! Big dark clouds passing overhead with a cold breeze. It's not supposed to be a very warm weekend -- definitely pajama pants and hoodie weather. Since my plans are "clean my room and play video games," I'll live. :p
-->Wrote some more on "Londerland Bloodlines" after supper -- Alice has met Marian, and Marian -- pissed off at her ex-boyfriend Muddy -- was only too happy to let her listen to his message about staying in Skyeline. So Alice has that to turn into Arthur -- and she also has to take care of Knox's Foxy Boxes problem on the way back from that. Not a night goes by that she isn't busy, it seems. . .
-->Watched a bit of my two new favorite boys on YouTube:
A) Starting with Call Me Kevin tonight – VR House Flipper! Which really should be called "House Cleaner," as that was the main thing poor Kevin was doing. Which proved to be difficult when the game kept wanting him to get down on his hands and knees and get tangled up in his own equipment. (He kept snagging his hand on his headset wire – and throwing his virtual couch around when he tried to free himself. XD) Dude got so sick of cleaning he ended up refusing to do it in jobs, instead just painting over splotches and flinging toys around when directed. It was very entertaining. XD
B) Then it was time for GrayStillPlays!
1. More Universe Sandbox 2 – what happens when you give Earth the mass of like a billion Jupiters? Some very pretty colors as it DESTROYS EVERYTHING AROUND IT. XD It was a sight to behold, let me tell you. The Earth crushing the Moon into a fine powder. . .the Earth yeeting the Sun away. . .the Earth more or less DEVOURING another Earth as it grew denser and larger. . .and finally the Earth basically vaporizing Jupiter in an epic series of collisions and explosions. Truly amazing – and a good way to check out all the new particle effects in the latest update! XD
2. More City Smash – time to try and imitate a hurricane in this bitch! There were actually bunch of little updates in this episode, though – in addition to the hurricane, we had cluster bombs, fireworks from hell, a "sad magnet" that actually does a TON of damage to the buildings (Gray was shocked and pleased), and Gray's new favorite – a pair of portals that fling things between them. He naturally started doing ALL the damage with those. XD Rip ALL the buildings apart! It was beautiful and glorious and he and I both hope there are more updates in the future. :D
-->And then after that I've been mainly catching up on webcomics and tumblr tags and whatnot, being a distracted little thing. Gotta get my act together and do some queuing on both my tumblrs and answer some comments before going back to the distracted thing. XD What, it's Friday night, I'm allowed!
Anyway -- plans for tomorrow: Clean my room, probably have another round or five of the beanbag game, play Fallout 4 (need to test a mod where power armor stops you getting the Molerat Disease in that one quest if you have all bits; that means going over to Vault 81 and doing that stuff), work on the "Layers" meme for my Malkavian!Alices. Seems doable. Let's see how it goes tomorrow! Night all!

almostdone (not embedding it becasue it's big) and I want to draw AL and 12 + 1 because I dreamt of her so I'll have them to keep me occupied for a bit. Christmas isn't that far away...no subject
Date: 2020-09-20 03:14 am (UTC)Nice! I'm glad you've got the art bug to keep you occupied. :) And no, no it is not -- funny to think we're about three-fourths done with the year. Not going to be sorry to see it go, THAT'S for sure.

Date: 2020-09-20 02:07 am (UTC)Is that supposed to be "cornered"?
Also. Victor. PUSHING SOMETHING THE SIZE OF A WATERMELON OUT OF AN OPENING THE SIZE OF A LEMON. And I expect without an epidural, though this is Secundus after all. If I hadn't had the drugs...well, let's not think of that.
And I know Chester's in-story birthday is November 5th, but the day his birth chapter got posted was Antoinette's birthday. XD Eesh she's 10 now. Gawd help me.

Date: 2020-09-20 03:20 am (UTC)I hadn't thought of an epidural, no -- poor Alice! And yes, I think intellectually Victor understood there was going to be some pain involved, but emotionally -- well, you saw his explanation. He's not always able to control himself if he thinks she needs him.
LOL, seriously?! Well, happy birthday, Antoinette! And holy crap O.o Where does the time go?
