A Lizard of Unusual Size

Interesting conversations of the day:

Mom: [shopping for boxers for my cousin]
Me: [wondering why they have Wii-patterned boxers]
Mom: What kind of boxers does James wear?
Me: ...Mom, I don't pay attention to my cousin's underwear.
Mom: YEAH WELL

/HIGH FIVES SELF

ALSO I AM REGISTERED FOR COLLEGE AND SUBMITTED YET ANOTHER JOB APPLICATION

WHO'S AWESOME

I AM

I'm gonna be apping Nick from the Left 4 Dead series, and I got some of his app done so far. It's mostly just background and personality stuff. I don't have his "hero" status and powers completely figured out yet, because I realized some things.

Nick and the others could be Carriers of the infection/green flu/zombie disease/whatever, right? This fact is not concrete explored in-game beyond Valve's usual tell-a-story-through-environment, so some things about how Carriers and the infection in general work are still kinda-sorta up for fan debate.

So, a few things RP-wise.

1. I could potentially turn this whole Carrier thing into an interesting power (no ideas yet)
2. But the whole I-could-potentially-infect-the-entire-city-lololol might be a pain for everyone else (though it's not like Nick would have any intention of biting or bleeding on someone)
3. Though at the same time I don't want to totally ditch/ignore the fact because that would feel kinda cheap/take something potentially interesting away from the character
4. ... Are all immune people Carriers anyway?

Ugh, now I don't know what to do. Mostly because I don't wanna be a pain with him potentially spreading something unless I make something up if it is a power. INB4 SOMEONE SAYS I'M THINKING TOO HARD. WHICH I AM.

Am I the only one getting a bunch of virtual gifts/getting notices about you guys getting virtual gifts? I wanna know if it's just me of if it's happening to anyone else too.

And if this is some kind of thing that's supposed to be happened, well. I don't pay that much attention to LJ announcements. :|;

My parents have been fighting, so I'm hiding down here until I have to go upstairs. Ugh.

Um... in other news, I'm meeting with one of the college advisors on Tuesday before I can finally register. Tommorow I'm planning on going over my classes one more time before we make some final decisions. Then at least all THAT crap will be over, 'til I actually start school.

I'm not quite done with the friending meme yet, but I just wanted to say hi to my new capeandcowl friends!

So HI.

This journal contains my stupid sense of humor which is pretty much the equivalent of this, video game talk, occasional deep thinking, and... whatever else kinda talk. So here's to me hopefully not being too obnoxious, I hope hsadkjsjkdjks

I like long walks on the beach, dogs, etc.

Also, uh, I can be a little bit shy at times so apologies if I get like that

( Assassin's Creed 2 spoilers because I promised I'd keep them under a cut )

guys have you heard about this dude Candle Jack I heard he was a pretty cool guy and he doesn't afrai

why am I always the one who gets the weird dreams FHDJKJSD. LAST NIGHT'S LATEST DREAM WAS DIVIDED INTO THREE PARTS:

First, scary part. IRL, my sister had woken me up because it's her birthday and she wanted her present from me. I told her we had to wait, then went back to sleep. Then I was dreaming again. In my dream I "woke up" again to moaning. Out my window was this TERRIFYING GIANT MONSTER THING STARING ME DOWN. It's hard for me to describe it to tell you why it was scary, but if something covered and blood and Iron Giant-sized was staring you down as you wake up... yeah. Thusly, I screamed and ran out of my room. Then it starts FOLLOWING ME, going from window to window throughout the house trying to find me. I remember my dad's gun is in my parent's bedroom (which it is, for real. he's a federal officer and has a few guns, and all but one is at work). I run over to wake up my parents anddd...

Then the dream switches over. This time to something a little less freaky. Apparently I'm watching a trailer for a new inFAMOUS-related game, somewhat. Though it ends up being more like those "put every superhero ever in game" things. And for some reason Cole could use his powers but he also had a shotgun desite the fact that in canon the electricity in his body explodes any gun he ever holds. Anyway, I get to see the game, and it's about all these super-powered people who are put under mind-control by... some person. You can break the mind-control for each person you help, one-by-one, and you can play them. So I got to free and play Cole. When I did, though, it goes into a flashback thing I got to play about how he got under mind-control in the first place...

DREAMSWITCH AGAIN. I'm suddenly in the Animus (The Assassin's Creed kind, yes). I... forgot where I was, I guess it was Florence since I just started the sequel last night. Anyway, I'm wandering around and suddenly ( AC2 spoiler-ish ) comes at me with a gun. Now... before anyone says anything. I just got INTRODUCED to ( AC2 spoiler-ish ) sort-of because I just did the first Truth thingy (which I keep calling The Truthiness Colbert-style in my head) so I pretty much know nothing about what happens. But it didn't matter because SOME GUY WHO I FOR SOME REASON I KNEW WAS ( AC2 spoiler-ish ) IS POINTING AN ENORMOUS GUN AT ME IN THE RENAISSANCE. I start to run, and...

I woke up.

So yeah.

... So. It's midnight and I'm bored

I wanted to say something awesome and profound before I go to bed, especially since I've pondering the not-really-there-anymore friendship I had with someone I've known for years, and how we've both kinda half-attempted to fix things but mostly stopped caring.

But all I came up with was:

LUCY WHAT HAPPENED TO YOUR LIPS

I DON'T CARE IF IT'S AN STYLISTIC CHANGE OR YOU'RE SUDDENLY WEARING LIPSTICK OR WHATEVER WHAT IS WRONG WITH THEM

okay bed now GOOD NIGHT
