Well That Explains a Lot

crossover_chickGot my period today, so that explains why I've felt so reluctant to do anything and had such trouble concentrating. Stupid hormones! *grrr* Our house internet having a mysterious slowdown period this afternoon did not help matters in the slightest. *grumble*
Not all bad today, though: I finished "Portal 2!" And yes, I did die a lot in the final boss fight -- but not just from listening to dialogue. In fact, I spent quite a lot of time dying because I wasn't sure how you were supposed to get Rick the Adventure Core and the Fact Core. I mean, I could see the basic mechanics (the splatters of Repulsion and Propulsion Gel), but it took me forever to figure out how to get them. And where exactly I was supposed to attach them to Wheatley. NOT A GOOD THING IN A TIMED FIGHT.
Still, I made it, I got the awesome ending, and the awesome ending cutscenes, and the awesome ending song, and the final ending that made me want to hug Wheatley so bad. :( Aww, Wheaters, don't be sad! There's always fanfiction.
Anyway, so that's "Portal 2!" I'll be playing it again in the future -- after all, there's still developer's commentary to listen to! I should really get back to Sims at some point, though. Depressing how long its been.
Also,gigs_83 pointed me toward a cute Let's Play of Okami in response to my last post, which I'm watching. Nice-looking game! I get the feeling Ammy would fit in very well in Alice's Mysterious East. And it looks fun too.
And now, back to RP and wrestling with this application.

(The only one exempt is Helloween because -- well, I love him. And he does try!) Yeah, I've noticed a lot of them have TV Tropes pages! We have a nice little directory of LPers over there.

Chugga actually praised the people who run his TV Tropes page (that made it to Crowning Moment of Heartwarming) for keeping it updated.

Aww, cool! :D
