This blog mostly contains my latest escapades in the Pokémon fandom. Be it related to the games, the anime, my collection, or PC itself, this blog should have it. I assume this will mostly be filled with collection updates, since that's my main interest in the fandom, but we shall see. Thanks for reading!

If you're interested in my gaming habits outside of Pokémon, you might be interested in my Gamespot blog, perhaps. If you want my day-to-day ramblings, check out my Livejournal. The latter may have questionable content or not-quite-PG ratings, so use discretion. :P

Especially Dad

My manager just came over and asked me if I'd do the Christmas cards. I just have to put in a gift certificate and seal the envelope for each card and there's one for everyone who works here. (So ~150?)

Apparently all the managers wrote handwritten messages to each employee in every card. Wow, talk about tedious. At any rate, my dad is one of the big managers. So when I came across my card, I had to take a look at what he wrote.

Maybe next year will be better

Posted December 15th, 2008 at 05:30 PM by Lightning (Tangential Ramblings)
So... the one year my "anniversary" was actually on a weekend--implying I could be at PC all day--and I pretty much missed it. ;_;

Last month I bought an upgrade to Windows and went ahead and upgraded to Vista Ultimate. I was still high on my painkillers at the time, so I attributed the fact that the product key wasn't working to the idea that I was just entering it wrong every single time. XD So I opted to activate Windows later and went on my way.

So a month...

I neglect this thing even more than my LJ. Um, let's just go over what I've been doing in the last few months. XD

October
→ Started watching Tales of the Abyss. It's one of my favourite games so seeing it in anime form is great! (Too bad I'm behind already. @_@)
→ Broke down and got Portal: Still Alive on the 360. I swear I played through the whole game like 5 times that week. (And I still missed the last achievement! ;_;)
→ Voted for the first time! :D!...

NO FAIR. I WAS ALREADY SICK.

So I'm already feeling really under the weather this week because of certain health issues that crop up often, so I had the day off yesterday. I was feeling a little better but then late last night I started feeling kind of crappy. By 1 AM I had a really bad cold. It sprung up so quickly! So now, of course, I'm way overtired, my nose is running, and I'm still on painkillers over the original issue to boot. GEE I FEEL GREAT. orz I swallowed like 6 pills this morning.

Platinum bug? [edit: ALSO LEGENDARIES]

Posted September 13th, 2008 at 01:56 AM by Lightning (Tangential Ramblings)

EDIT: There's some awesome legendary Pokémon discussion going on in the comments to complement this entry. Or something. Go read. D:

Am I the only one who isn't really excited over Platinum? :( I mean, yeah, I'm definitely going to pick it up on its English release but that's mostly just because I do that with all the main Pokémon games.

I don't really like the new Rotom forms. I'm glad it has, you know, a purpose (presumably) now but... I do prefer my Pokémon to...
