Since it's been a good while, I figure I had better say something in this blog. I've been sick lately :( and my dad has needed the comp for his business stuff--I have to use my parents' comp cuz mine is still at the place getting fixed, mostly cuz I haven't had time this week to pick it up. In literary news, I almost finished that romance novel--it was pretty good, but I haven't been able to bring myself to read the epilogue for some reason now that all the happy stuff is over with. I started reading X-Wing: Bacta War, so now I'm on the 4th book in that X-Wing series. So far I'm definately a fan of it. I guess Mike was right about Stackpole being a good writer--too bad he wasn't slightly more amiable when I met him, but FASA owes him like 20,000 or something so whatever. For FFX, I'm getting pretty far I believe, but right now I'm in a sort of statis cuz I'm trying to build up some experience and buffing up my characters, plus I'm trying to collect fiends for this guy who wants me to round them up for his little practice arena or whatever he's got. Anyway, so the plot hasn't progressed for a while, making it a little boring right now, but at least my characters are starting to kick major ass. I realize I probably should have done more stealing of items earlier in the game, but with Rikku being so weak at first, I didn't want to put her in, and I didn't realize the wide variety of items you could get and how useful they were. Oh well, I could always play again sometime, although considering how long it takes, I'm thinking that's not going to happen. Other than that, nothing too too thrilling right now. It's been a pretty busy week with work at the Sal and trying to get over this stupid coughing cold. ::sigh:: Life just is never simple--but I suppose that makes it more worthwhile...but you know, just once I'd like things to go the way I hope.
