Happy Birthday Alice
May. 4th, 2018 11:39 pmGot the best possible "birthday present" for today too -- Helloween managed to get the first set of his A:MR revisit up today! . . .Over an hour long, but I didn't let that stop me! XD He's got it running on all best quality too, and it looks goooorgeous. :D And he was gushing about how the art design was so awesome, how Alice's character design reflects how she feels in each world (weak and downtrodden in London; powerful and vital in Wonderland), how the game handles different from AMA but that's okay because the jumping is less treacherous, and how awesome the particle effects and such are. It really makes me want to play it again. Which, uh, is a problem, since I'm still not done with BioShock 2, nor have I even touched BioShock Infinite or Fallout 4. ^^; So I must resist, and live vicariously through my Hells.
Rest of the day's been all right -- work got stressful, but what else is new? Had to teach one of my coworkers how to do one part of my job because it has to be done next Friday, which I took off. It was -- a little nerve-wracking. Both because we kept getting interrupted, and because she needs super-specific instructions, which I'm not always the best at giving. But we're gonna do a couple of practice ones while I'm in next week, so hopefully that'll go well enough.
Afternoon was pretty good -- I got in an afternoon walk (as well as a lunchtime one, despite being sprinkled on), had a nice sloppy joe for supper, and wrote another good chunk on "Fixing You" (Alice confronting Thirteen on the fact he seems to be all talk and no action). I also sent Mom some funny pics of my dolls in their party hats (you can see the tumblr version here, if you're interested in me being silly with my dolls) -- she liked them, said it brightened up her day at work. And I had a special birthday sundae in honor of Alice's birthday with my Helloween watching. So that was all nice.
All right -- finished up my Valice Multiverse queue, time to empty out the inbox. Then maybe reread a favorite Alice fanfic or two. Why not. :) Night all!
