So very, very busy. Apologies. I'm still on the wagon, I swear!
Things should be far sunnier post-Friday.
~ was dismayed* to discover I'd fallen out of the top 100 on the Rock Band vocal career leaderboards. Am resolved to brush up on my Blondie & make myself relevant again. Have just discovered that there's a new Utada Hikaru album out, which must be attended to post-haste. FInally, I'm feeling the itch to host my own blog again, but deflated by the thought of converting all my templates to Wordpress. There must be a better way...
*not really.
]]>GNE.flickr.com? I've never wanted any April fool's joke to be real* more than this one. Is it 2003 again? It was eerie and wonderful to wander the old roads, crossing through firefields and city squares. Absinthe is still there, though it seems much more like a luxury in an economic downturn that has seemingly extended to my in-game pocketbook as well. And old faces (many with new names), sounding much as if they'd dropped in directly from then. I don't want it to end, but I'm afraid to get too attached, should they break my heart again ... but will they? Oh, they make tantalizing noises: "we'll have to fix that," dangling the possibility of a future. Is there a place for a little freeform gaming in the new new economy? I fear not, but I'll enjoy this carriage until the moment it becomes a pumpkin again.
In other (more mundane) news, "Still Alive" is possibly the only song in Rock Band where singing in a manner true to the original actually coincides with maximum scoring potential. Which should help the efforts of the Aperture Science Self Esteem Fund for Girls. It's true!
*Honestly, I have no real desire to live on Mars. Where would I get my ahi poke?
