Wow. I must say that things have taken an inresting turn around here. I guess it depends on your take on intresting; but for me running out of water, having a 20ft hole in your driveway, and having your front door broken completly off is a pretty idea of something 'intresting'. There is a long story behind all of that. I might tell you later.
In other news I am ALMOST finished Fable III. And I have some pending issues with it. Which I will share with you now.
Is it just me or have they 'dumbed' it up since the second one? I mean don't get me wrong here I LOVED the game; but it seems to be getting easier as I go along. The magic got well- less extreme and less complecated, and the story line seemed short. The main one anyway. Also- I dislike how they limited the expressions are! I enjoyed threatening villageres for extra cash or saducing them with my awesome good looks. Speaking of which- I am also upset with the lack of clothing options. Granted- the cloths looks COOL in the third one: but I miss the way you could really do up the clothing.
I think I'm being to critical here.
Thoughts?
I have also maganged to throw myself quite willing into a pit of decending darkness. And by that I mean I have once again took to much on again. I have three challenges to do, a fan art and wallpaper, a fan art, and either a fanart or wallpaper. I'm not sure on that last one. The downfall of making a challenge: getting the rewards done in time.
Oh well- I love doing them!!
FIRST PAGE FOR SHUFFLED DECK WILL BE UP SOON!
"LETS DO THE TIME WARP AGAIN!!!"
So happy halloween you all!
I hope that you all had a FANTASTIC halloween. You know all that scary stuff full of candy and movies. I think I spent most of the day watching movies. *laughs* None of those scary, bloddy movies of course. Rocky Horror Picture Show, Sleepy Hollow(Disney), and Charlie Browns Halloween.
ALL HAIL THE PUMPKIN KING!
I also cooked an amazing dinner, which I will share with you later. Its just that good. And no one died which is amazing on my part. Thats right. Matt Cooked something! Yay!
So I think I'll be having random days where I won't show up here. You know a day here a day there. I went out and bought three games to play and they are sucking my soul. Literly. I can't help myself anymore its scary. The ones that I got where Fable III, Alen Wake, and Disgaea 3: Absence of Justice. Each and every one of them are addicting in every way. I don't think I'll be able to stop until I finish them all.
I need help.
I've also had the ''Time Warp'' song from Rocky Horror Picture Show stuck into my head all day. And some song from Meat Loaf.

Yay for wearing purple!
I have no idea if thats for today or not. I think it was tomorrow. I don't remember anymore. I logged onto devART today and everything was purple and it reminded me to stick this up.
And for the people that don't know why we wore- or still are- wearing purple; heres what going on. I think it was yesterday wearing purple was to support those who took their lives because of anti-gay bullying.
And of course I didn't *have* anything purple- so I taped a sign on my shirt saying "Think Purple" or something like that.
So if you DIDN'T wear purple yesterday it is not to late! Go out and wear some purple! Or better yet, MAKE SOME PURPLE ART! Thats always fun! Make some art that supports the Purple Cause. I know its called spirt week; but I like Purple Cause better. *grins*
HAPPY PURPLE CAUSE!
