Another biiiiiig chocobo! My wrist sure is feeling it right now.


A gift for a certain other Tiger & Bunny fan. Of course, I got this. I still need to find a place to hang them once I get them framed. By the computer, I do know that much.

So, yes. I still live, I still work. I still... uh... well, those two things, at least. Have been fighting with my ear so that I do not get another ear infection, though I think at this point the danger has passed and now it simply insists on being annoying. Decongestants are really not my friends, but they will be used with extreme prejudice when necessary.

So with the holidays and my birthday approaching, I have gained a disturbing amount of chocolate. NOT COMPLAINING. I have petite fours, truffles, a variety cheesecake, wine, and... fried rice. Yes indeed. Surviving 31 years of bullshit deserves a reward. *grin* Can I avoid working on my birthday, is the question...

I have somewhat created a bit of a monster. A while back, I sent my mother the whole of Metal Gear Solid 4 played out as one long movie (more like a nearly 10 hour miniseries, actually; yes, really), a bit of the more important gameplay recorded along with the cutscenes. I sent it to her because I fucking loved the over-the-top cheese and action and "Just fucking kiss already and get it over with, boys!" moments, and suspected she would appreciate it. (Er, not so much for the last reason there, but...) She enjoyed it more than I thought she would. Last week I made a mention of Metal Gear Rising in an e-mail, and that it would star "our favorite armless cyborg ninja". It's been a spiral of linking to YouTube videos and bits and pieces of other information every since. Kojima, look at what you did. (Thank you.) One of these days I've got to get my ass back there, consoles in tow, and have ourselves a little "how to play games for fun and cursing" workshop.

And with that, since my life is either totally boring or full of things that really aren't worth writing about (or both), links. Since I mentioned Metal Gear Rising, here be the trailer in case anyone cares. (Bayonetta meets Metal Gear? Yessssssssssss.) Of course, long-time fans are pissy. What's new. (It's not like I don't understand, to be honest. But if anyone paid any fucking attention they'd realize the "Solid" got dropped from the title, hence... it's not a Metal Gear Solid game. So. Stop. Whining.)

Speaking of trailers, Kingdom Hearts 3D Jump Festa trailer with English subtitles. Still don't want a 3DS, but oh how I want to see what this game does. (And I so wrongly want to see Rinzler hug Sora. Don't judge me.)

I admit it: I loved the first G.I. Joe movie. It was all the stupid action and cheese one could want--oh, and a hot Baroness. Important, very important. And I was very happy about this trailer for the sequel. Nothing says action movies like... well, you'll see.

Finally, A Very Calvin & Hobbes Christmas. Yes.
