I still read it, and I still enjoy it, but it&#8217;s really kind of lost me as being extremely dedicated to it. I no longer debate what&#8217;s going to happen, what the meaning of this or that is, and so on. It just doesn&#8217;t do that for me anymore. I wrote a forum post about why that is <a href=\"http:\/\/www.gamespite.net\/talkingtime\/showpost.php?p=1083759&#038;postcount=1746\">here<\/a>, I suppose. Still, if nothing else, I still really love many of the musical albums. I still listen to <a href=\"http:\/\/homestuck.bandcamp.com\/album\/the-felt\">The Felt<\/a> fairly often, and newer tracks like <a href=\"http:\/\/homestuck.bandcamp.com\/track\/atomic-bonsai\">this one<\/a>, or <a href=\"http:\/\/homestuck.bandcamp.com\/track\/time-on-my-side\">this one<\/a>, or <a href=\"http:\/\/homestuck.bandcamp.com\/track\/warhammer-of-zillyhoo\">this one<\/a> are really fantastic. (Okay, maybe not the last one.)<\/p>\n<p>While I have still not played a single game, my brain continues to make me drawn to Furoticon, the furry porn card game, just because, seriously, what the fuck? They&#8217;re coming out with a new set, Second Vanilla, but I&#8217;m really frustrated they aren&#8217;t making new preconstructs, because the new art looks super-pretty and they&#8217;re doing these in-character blog posts for characters on the new cards and I want to check it out! But I&#8217;m not buying individual boosters and being all luck of the draw with it. That&#8217;s really kind of silly for a game I&#8217;m not actually going to play. Still, I&#8217;m still just amazed that not only is the game still going, but they&#8217;re managing to get some pretty awesome and famous in the fandom artists on board for card art.<br \/>\nEh, who am I kidding? I&#8217;ll probably go weak at some point and order some boosters.<\/p>\n<p>So the Youtube App on my iPad has gone to shit, and I really don&#8217;t know why. It can no longer play a simple Youtube video. It keeps stopping in the middle, and every time it does, it loses what buffer it had. Stops constantly. Like every minute. I really want to just watch stupid let&#8217;s plays in bed, but it won&#8217;t. I mean, it plays Giant Bomb quicklooks just fine. Why it can&#8217;t play a Youtube video in an app specifically designed to play a Youtube video is beyond me, and really frustrating. You didn&#8217;t used to be so stupid! Get better so I can watch my stupid Let&#8217;s Plays!<\/p>\n<p>Really, though, a lot of my time has been spent being worried as fuck about my trip to visit Brer. I&#8217;m getting all wrapped up and nervous about making a decent impression. I worry about what his parents will think about me. I worry about interacting with his sister. I worry about being a horrible-looking motherfucker and if that will fuck our long, loving relationship up. I just worry about it. It&#8217;s a lot of worry. It&#8217;s my current biggest worry.<\/p>\n<p>What else has happened to me? Well, I took a test to graduate. I bought a ton of clothes. I freaked out and was depressed. I finally got my letter and scheduled my fucking appointment for Hormones, so that&#8217;s happening Wednesday. I did some homework. I played a ton of Pocket Frogs, but I&#8217;ve already talked about that. It&#8217;s just my life, I suppose. It continues.<br \/>\nIt keeps going, whether I want it to or not. Whether I feel like shit, or mostly okay.<br \/>\nIt keeps on going. Hopefully for the better.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I made a sticky note on my desktop that says &#8220;List of Blog Post Ideas&#8221; that I keep adding to, but every time I sit down to write something I never want to write about anything on that list.
