For lack of anything else to brag about. *ducks* These taken from the new Birth by Sleep images.
Finally, a girl Keyblader! *cheers* (Kairi doesn't count, she's not playable.)
They look like they're having fun. XD
This one is my favorite.
Also, the DC council has voted to allow same-sex marriage in the district! YAY! *dances* On the other spectrum, a bunch of bishops-priests-and-whatnot have gotten together to make a Manhattan Declaration - just in case we'd forgotten that they still frown on that sort of thing. Here's the part that made me lol:
... the reason every civilization in history has defined marriage between men and women, is that society has a lot at stake in preserving continuity, in a wholesome way. It's quite clear that when men and women who have sex and make babies stay together. It's better for their children, and it's better that children grow up with their moms and dads -- and that's why societies have defined marriage, to protect making babies.
OH YOU WACKY FOLKS. Guys, I'm a history-degree dropout, and even I can come up with at least three reasons right off the bat why the above is a giant crock of bantha poodoo.
You guys, if this is the best the traditional-marriage crowd has to offer, I am no longer worried.

Well, the snow's finally stopped. *peers out of window* After listening to the weather people, I was expecting a few flakes mixed in with all the rain - certainly nothing that would stick. Final verdict? Six inches of fluffy white stuff, easy. (That despairing cry you hear is the county's public school students going 'It couldn't have held off until tomorrow?'.)
It was really nice watching it come down this morning, not that I had a lot of time to watch with work and all. Big fat fluffy snowflakes, perfect for playing in. It's basically what you think of when you imagine a white Christmas. *slightly less Grinchy*
So! In that spirit, have one of those all-I-want-for-Xmas meme things that have been making the rounds. A bit late, but as you will see, it doesn't matter all that much.
( The Rules, for those who have been living under a rock the past couple of weeks. )
My list:
1. A low-stress, preferably not-People-heavy (but I repeat myself) job that will pay me enough to live on. If it's a second job that I can fit in around my current gig, that's cool, but for preference I'd like to have a few afternoons/evenings free to write and chat.
2. A little apartment of my own. If it's warm, clean and all the appliances work, I'll be happy, even if it's only one room in a basement somewhere. (Actually, a basement would be perfect, 'cause that way I could stomp around doing DDR without bothering anyone below me.)
3. A gold chocobo. Less maintenance required than an airship, and I could ride him all around the world visiting everybody! ...Plus, y'know, choco. ^____^
4. A Keyblade. I got some darkness to fight off, yo.
5. A modern Transformers movie with a decent story. I hate to admit it, but yeah, Bay can't do a decent narrative to save his soul. And his portrayal of women makes Frank Miller look progressive.
6. Some brain rewiring, so I can a) get shed of this freaking depression, and b) quit procrastinating so damn much.
7. A little sense of self-worth, pursuant to the above.
8. A stronger heart, likewise.
9. Magic powers and/or Materia. I'm not picky what, although a Haste/Stop/Slow would be useful.
10. Some muscle, which is about as likely as the above.
...Why yes, that was a little passive-aggressive of me. x_x

Do you think people in Africa say 'when you hear hoofbeats, think zebras, not horses'?

OKAY. So, Black Friday was actually pretty anti-climactic, which was just fine with me. However, EVERY DAY AFTER IT HAS BEEN NOTHING SHORT OF HORRIBLE OMG. People, seriously. Just. Just go away. GO AWAY. :|
Also, I wasn't able to get a lappytoppy like I had planned, which was a downer. I was bitter, not gonna like. Still, it ended up being a good thing. I mean...I really don't have that kind of money to spend.
So I bought a PSP (whaaaaaat, I said I didn't have that kind of money to spend - the kind of money a PSP requires is much lower okay!) and one little game.
( Spoilers for Cloud, Tidus, and Cecil's Odysseys, as well as general DISSIDIA gameplay )
In other news, I have been quietly freaking out over Yuletide (WHAT WAS I THINKING) and wrangling tags (ugh, wait, why did I choose a fandom where everyone only has a first name?!). LIFE IS EXCITING.
Oh, hey, fic recs.
Allure of Honey, FF: Dissidia fic by Sinnatious. Cloud winds up in an outfit he swore he would never wear again. Crossdressing. Everyone/Cloud.
This fic. THIS FIC. I lol'd A LOT. Poor Cloud. <333333
Made for Much, FFXII fic by Original-Elfkin. Balthier is tired of the Westersands. Tired of the heat, tired of the sand stuck in every place, tired of his itchy 5 o'clock shadow. But a puzzle involving Vaan presents an entertaining distraction from his troubles. Pre-slash BalthierXVaan.
Another one that made me laugh, plus I really, really like the characterizations. I guess lulz are my main source of entertainment, what can I say.

So, I've had Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days in my possession for a little over twenty-four hours now, and my left thumb is already threatening to shrivel up and drop off. Which probably means I'm Doing It Wrong, but eh, what else is new. ...I think I like this game. ^_^ (Xion is a badass.)
Also: I got these 5Q's from jlsigman a long time ago and am only now getting around to answering them. One step at a time. XD
( You know the drill. ) Question me or my headcast, at your pleasure.

Okay, something more cheerful! ( Recs! )
Man it's gonna be cold for the next few days, brrr. Time to cuddle up with the kitties and play P4. :D

Well, another Black Friday, and nobody's been trampled to death by crazed shoppers as far as I've heard. Of course, the day's not over yet. (...I've really turned into a misanthrope the last month or so, and it seems like the start of the holiday season has really exacerbated it. I'm kinda worried about this.)
Of course, I really can't complain. I'm no more immune to a few bucks off Stuff I Don't Really Need than the next person, I just indulge my inner rabid consumer on the Internet. Although it must be said that Amazon does not play fair in this regard: I went on the site to get some CDs for my mom, and it waved 358/2 Days with eight bucks off at me. With fifteen minutes left to snag it. Dear readers, there are many temptations I can resist, but that was just dirty tactics.
*sigh* Ah well. Ten days 'til pretty boys in black cloaks on my DS, so I guess I can deal.

Oh, hey, good luck to my fellow retail slaves! TOMORROW IS GOING TO BE A BLAST. I'm going to make it worse for some poor bastard because I'm going to do some shopping before I have to be at work (at 6am omg). But damn it, one of those laptops WILL BE MINE. :|

I think one of the things I hate the most about watching the Macy's Thanksgiving Parade is how my dad complains about the music. *G* However, I want to know why they're not singing happier songs. WHY ARE YOU COMPLAINING ABOUT LEAVING YOUR BOYFRIEND IN THE THANKSGIVING PARADE? :|
Anyway, Happy Thanksgiving to those who celebrate! We're not doing the whole "family getting together" thing. *SHRUG* It's just going to be the three of us, which is just fine with me. XD
