Before I even think of sitting down and playing a video game, I need to vacuum the house. It's kind of dusty and I also should do some spot cleaning for the floor since I see spots everywhere. Done and Done. Woo.

Grandma's taken over the cooking which is a double edged sword in it's own right. On one hand, it's not BAD food, but at the same time, she has a penchant for way too much oil, onion and garlic. Talk about missing the point to eating healthy.

I didn't get a chance to read The Lost Hero again yesterday, too tired to do so. I'm tired today too, but at least I have a steady stream of coffee right now.

Need to pick up the truck from Fastlane Ford. Hopefully Kyle'll pop into the house before work time, so I can go get him to bring me to pick it up.

I need to decide which game I'm gonna focus on, WoW for holiday junk and meta achieves, Cross Edge or Atelier Rorona.

Also, found a direction for Ed. He's open an Atelier in T9, and it's a workshop to make little things here and there to big things. He'll probably leave clothing and blacksmithing to the actual professionals.

With any luck, mom is being released tomorrow from the hospital. I'm planning on calling ahead first to make sure that this isn't a wasted trip. Cause really, three trips to Edmonton in three days is asking for me to go completely batshit guano loco.

On a note of things, I need a PS3 HD cable. I have a HD tv so I need a cable accordingly. Prongs are a thing of the past!

Yeah, new PS3 now. Got myself Atelier Rorona which I'm sure I'm going to enjoy with fumbly Rorona as the leader of this party. I played the original Atelier Iris, and I still HAVE it in my game library. It was fantastic and a lot of fun. It helped that it was made during the tail end of the PS2 awesomesauce run for NIS.

The other game I got was Cross Edge (sorry Mags, I'll get those other games later!), and it's a game that I half expected to be purchased for a Kings Ransom and USED. But this time around it was a fresh copy. Never been used. I was downright pleased and quite surprised since getting a NIS game this late into the release is like finding King Solomon's Mines.

Cross Edge is a funny little thing in the realm of video games, a collaboration of FIVE different creators including favorites Capcom, NIS and a surprising addition of Gust who has deemed to get into the mainstream a little more with this. There's a couple of others such as Imagine Factory and what not, but hey, this is a game where you do power attacks while dressing people up in new costumes in order to agument their abilities.

Oh and York is a tool. I'm pretty sure he'll be even more badass later, but right now he's all Adell with less tact if you can believe that. He gives off the standard NIS Combat Wombat mentality, and isn't phased when Morrigan Aensland talks about a "burning heat in her bosom".

He must be gay or something cause Miko is a hottie even compared to the Queen of Succubus.

Percy Jackson Stuff )

Another thing though. Since mom is a big issue in my life, read I need to do everything now, I'm going to be parring back on RP officially in a bit. This means of course that every Tom Dick and Jane will ask me for tags, threads, etc. It's how it always GOES.

But I'm standing my ground here. I NEED time to readjust. There will be cooking, cleaning, shopping, laundry. EVERYTHING. I am a one-man army and this is what I'm doing right now. As such, tomorrow I'm probably even going to wind up sheeting mom's BED before she lays down in it. THAT is how bad off she is right now, despite walking everywhere.

So yeah, if I don't tag or if I blatantly ignore tags in favor for mind-numbing video games or WoW or WHATEVER, don't be too mad. Because I am relaxing, I need this time before I do anything ELSE. Tomorrow before I leave I gotta call an appointment into the Lacombe Ford, and then as WELL call the locksmith for our fubared door handle.

I have a life, and right now it's another shift. If you can't understand that, it means you have nothing to do but wait on a tag.

And that's sad.

Really.

Yesterday wasn't much fun, considering the reason going into Edmonton and all. Got up at 4am to go bring my mom to her surgery in Edmonton, sort of slept/napped/ate till 9, went to the Kingsway Garden Mall and wandered around endlessly till 2 or 3.

Some things of note that day:

Tried the KFC Double Down. Just once. Never again. It's really not a good sandwich for anyone. It's less of a "man's meal" than it is just plain meat and cheese.

I picked up TMNT Forever for 14 bucks at HMV, as well as the new Harvest Moon for the Wii and Rick Riordan's The Lost Hero.

My left leg hurts a LOT. Even now still. It's stiff and aches when I shuffle around. Need more Tylenol.

The Lost Hero is one of the best books in the Percy Jackson series. Or rather the Olympians series since the main Percy Jackson storyline is done and over with. There's a new team now, Piper, Leo and Jason, all which have their own unique skills and come from diverse backgrounds and godly parenthood too. I'd get up a full review of the book, but I want to re-read it now that I'm not tired.

It's 8 in the morning and I'm having my coffee.

EDIT: FUUUUUUUCK

My mom forgot her glasses. And now she can't see anything. So she expects me to BRING IT TO HER.

IT'S THREE HOURS AWAY! BACK AND FORTH! FUCK!

I can tell you one thing. I'm not moving from this chair. Not till, um, NOON.

EDIT: Okay... so do I go bring her glasses now at 9:13 in the morning or wait till noon?
