I'S SICK.

I has a cold. Or sympathy allergies. One of the two. My nose won't stop running and it's annoying. Hard to sleep at night when your bed, after lying in it for a few minutes, is soaked with, y'know, nose stuff. It's fucking nasty.

In other news, the second semester of school is over, and on Tuesday everyone at my school gets new classes. Except I had my schedule changed so I'm basically still in the same classes. Except I now have social studies instead of science. I dunno where I'm gonna sit at lunch now, though, because my lunchtime posse members all have different lunches than me. Maybe I'll just hang out in the classroom like I used to.

I also massively improved my keyboard skills in a matter of like, an hour by playing along to some instructional CDs. I can now read sheet music, play all the notes, hell, even play a few chords. I'm also learning guitar, but it's not going nearly as fast as keyboard. Right now I'm practicing a scale.

I also finished another comic recently. It involves the Coffee Crew (Nick, Mandy, Psy, Baby, Goliath, and apparently Jessa now) being hired to infiltrate an army base and destroy their secret weapon, which turns out to be some sort of evil mutant butt monster named The Buttlord. It's so totally a wannabe anime. I'd scan it if I had a scanner.

I SCREWED UP.

Lawl, I screwed up my sleeping habits. I stayed up all night again, then later accidentally fell asleep while watching WF play FF7. Then I woke up at 8 PM again. So even if I did have the house to myself this morning (I dunno if I did or not), I slept through it. >< I also found out I screwed up other things really bad.

I also started posting on Psy's forums more. Now it's back in my daily Internet routine (which basically consists of me alternating between several sites, mainly TMBW, HRWiki, LJ, BSWiki, etc, and IMing people). Also I need a hug because I'm emo.

RAWR (RUNNING OUT OF TITLES)

location: butts
mood: butts
music: butts

I made another ID thingy for dA a few days back, and just now uploaded. I really suck at drawing Mandy. And I still don't really have a good design for Simon thought up. Psy, you need to like, draw a picture of yourself so I can copy off of it! D:<

I was also browsing TMBW, as always, and HRWiki a bit. Not too much goin' on 'round teh 'net today. I like apostrophes. Oh, WF kicked me off teh computer earlier, and I left WMP running, and he put the headphones on, and Pet Name was on, and he actually listened to it, and said he liked the bass line. I need to get him to listen to The Else. I dunno, he might like that because it's kinda... like... more rock-oriented than other albums. Or maybe John Henry...I dunno. Whatever.

I told Waylon and KN a story earlier. It was great. It involved a police chase, some hot mini-skirt chicks, several corpses, grown men fighting over Happy Meal toys, some priest, and more.

STATUS REPORT

Ha, I think I'm getting somewhere with my text adventure. Still sucks, though.

And I recently came up with this idea to write a song aboot each of my friends... but really I don't remember all my friends, so I may just have to do the "main" ones like Waylon, KN, Mandy, Heather and Psy. Also I think it'd be cool if HMB: The Board had its own theme music... if I was better on guitar/bass I could totally do that, too.

And I discussed The Else with both Anna and Heather. CONTRECOUP YAY.

And KN thinks Heather is crazy. :p WTF.

And I should really make like, a poll, and ask everybody if I'm ugly, hot or average. There seems to be some debate aboot my appearance lately.

And I'm gonna try an' draw something soon, whenever I get my Wacom Tablet.

And the other day, I ran a search on LJ for people with really perverted interests, and I was shocked by my findings. I never knew so many cool people were here!

And I have mental problems.

~And Bate-- Err, I mean Nick Bate

Ed Note: First mention of Anna. She's not even a "main friend" at this point. I wonder when the obsession started. I need to read even more.

EPIC FAIL

Well, I failed my mission.

But, KN requested that I post my hot, hot conversations with Heather to HMB: The Board (which you actually need a password to enter, until the construction is done). So I did. Enjoy, those of you who know the password. And now, personalized messages to each of you who are reading this. In alphabetical order.

Heather - YOU ISH TEH HAWTNESS. But you totally need to wake up earlier, liek, in the mornings when I have the house to myself.

KN - ._. srsly, read that convo. You will enjoy. Oh, and actually image the stuff...in your head. That's what I do. MEGA HAWTNESS.

Mandy - You need to meet Heather. SHE LIKES TMBG, RPGS, BONUS STAGE AND HOMESTAR RUNNER. You'd probably like her. Unless... unless you already HAVE met her.

Nick - Hi, Nick! How's it goin'? You are SO hot.

Psy - Where the crap have you been? So um. 'Sup? Still...doing all kinds of stuff? Yeah, 'das cool.

Waylon - You're evil. Stop blackmailing me.

That's all. Because nobody else is here. Hmm. I should contact some of my other friends...like Phanty, Tara, Macen and Smithy and stuff. I haven't talked to them for a long friggin' time.

~Not Nick... or is it?

AND WORKING ON THE SECOND...

But enough aboot that. I now have a whole four people reading my LJ! Huzzah!

Although, I haven't seen Psy online for a few days. I wonder what he's up to. Probably avoiding me because I keep IMing him all the time. Heehee.

Also, Dad got into kind of an argument with WF's mom. Like, a loud yelling type argument. So me an' Dad left for a few hours. We went to McDonald's and then went hiking. I climbed this really steep hill. I was really out of breath after that, and my knees really hurt. But then I like, meditated. While walking. And it actually got me back to normal in no time.

My ki flow must be pretty wicked awesome.

FIRST TEXT ADVENTURE COMPLETED!

Mission 1 - Explore Akagi's Cave

Today Nick explores the mystery that is his own house. Which is actually a cave. This is a really crappy game and also very easy to cheat at, but... just don't cheat. I'm also working on some other things, but just ignore everything else for now.

Also, MAJOR DRAMA going on. But whatever. I'm trying to stay out of it. Today's plan: work on some more text adventures and stuff, then later talk to Waylon, KN and Heather again. I just don't know what happened last night, though. Both Heather and Waylon just mysteriously signed off of YIM without warning. So I dunno.

I should probably talk to Psy and Mandy, too. (AND YES I PROMISE TO THAT THING THAT YOU SAID)

So...I'ma work on some more stuff now, I guess.

Ed Note: Yes, the link still works. I even played it. Here is a quote from it:

Baby is busy at the moment. However, he senses the cat treat and swiftly pushes a hot female cat away. He then grabs the treat and happily eats it as the other kitty storms out the door. You ask Baby where the key to the locked door is. He says Mandy might have it.

The cat treat is removed from your inventory, and Baby joins your team.

WTF is a hot female cat?! I followed the text adventure to the end and got to this page:
