everlastingsoul | The days are going by so fast. Weird.

So we had a housewarming/birthday party this past Saturday with mostly family. It makes me happy that my family is full of geeks and computer-savvy types; my cousins set up a LAN party with Halo Reach (complete with full-wall projection) while the parents streamed a college football game. My cousins raved about how they love our house because there's a TV or computer (or both) in every room.

One of my cousins let me borrow Alan Wake, which I blazed through on Sunday and Monday. I bought The Signal DLC on Monday and went through that, then watched a playthrough of The Writer since I didn't want to shell out more money if the DLC was as short as The Signal. Considering I can't stand playing scary video games myself, I'm kinda surprised I went through Alan Wake so quickly. But the game gives you warnings and slows down the action to allow you react, which ... really, really helped me for forest sections.

I'm in the process of finally getting around to replaying the Quest For Glory series. I bought QFG5: Dragonfire sometime ago and told myself I'd play through all the other games and import my characters along the way. I've finished as a thief on the EGA version, and now I'm playing as a magic user on the VGA version. I might go back to the EGA version for the fighter, since I recall not being fond of the VGA speed. This will also give me the chance to play the fan remake of Trial By Fire.

In other news, I think I'm in an RP slump. I think the crazy tagging of the Luceti Malnosso mission has left me less than enthused about picking up dropped tags with Albert or starting new ones with Leon. I can't even get the willpower up to write for the new NS at Damned, even when I have a clear plan of what Minato should do. ...I also need to stop looking at reserves and apps; I get this conflicted feeling that I'm not fond of. I hope it'll pass soon.

Looking at the reserves page never does any good :/ ... at least, in my experience. I guess we really haven't talked much these past few days, huh? Sorry I ended up falling asleep last night. I've just been so tired. I never even got to ask you how the party went, so I'm glad to see that it ended up going well. Maybe you just need a little break and some time with video games? It seems that's what you're doing anyway.

Yeah, so I'm not going to look at reserves and apps anymore.

I think I'm still pushing myself. I told you I wasn't going to tag Raine until I wasn't so drained from the event, and I'm still feeling drained.

Haha, that explains the busy weekend. XD The party sounds like it was a lot of fun, though. Full-wall projection, I don't even.

The event was pretty busy. If doing new things doesn't help, then maybe things just need to slow down a little for you to get back into it?

I didn't play with them, but they did seem to have a blast. They only stopped playing to sing 'happy birthday' and watch the football game. Two of my cousins even canceled other plans they had for later in the night because they didn't want to leave. XD

Considering how slow Luceti is right now, I think it's safe to say I have been slowing down. 8| So I dunno. It's more obvious in Damned that I'm not active; not so much in Luceti. (...Except for that utter fail with replying to things in lucetilocked.)

Oh wow. XD That's awesome. It's always nice to see that everyone's having a good time, so it's cool even if you don't participate in that stuff yourself.

Aww. I still think it makes sense to feel a little burnt out after all that, but I'm sure things will work out. Just take your time. o/ Although, if you ever need help with lucetilocked, let me know! Caesar could lend a hand here and there when things get busy, if it'd make things any easier.

My cousins raved about how they love our house because there's a TV or computer (or both) in every room.

The geek in me is awed as well.
