Bonfire Night, Summer Solstice


Ah, the Summer Solstice. So it is now officially SUMMER! Woo. The time for tanning, swimming, fishing, sweating, being lazy, and just hanging out. Of course, i'll still be inside playing video games, but at least i'm having fun with it. Just because it's summer, it doesn't mean everyone has to sit around in what my boyfriend calls Ball Soup. Haha.

On the topic of being at least semi-active, I do ride my bike. It's crappy and old and falling apart, but gets me from point A to point B. I don't have a car. Or job. Yet. Mt sentences are getting pretty short. Hooray for random links!



  • Read this. And then tell me how stupid the idea is. 6,000 toddlers sharing the same toys, and you don't think anyone's going to get sick? Come on.
  • StumbleUpon gave me gold after one click. Breathing Earth is almost like watching things being born and dying. It looks like so many people are dying, but so many MORE are actually being born. Honestly, it's a miracle, and this website is a simulaiton showing a global representation. Way cool.

Video Game Girl

I guess since I did post that I play video games / online games, and i'm in need of a good distraction any day, i'll do a mini-review of some games.



Gaia Online.
An "Anime Roleplaying Forum" once called Go-Gaia. It has many people there to help or hinder you in your quest to get clothes and items for your Avatar, a virtual person used to represent you or yourself, or just line your posts. There are games, guilds, contests, and more. I've been playing it for years and still love it! My name on here is: [ Boogie] [ Oogie] [ Man]


Seeds of Time.
I recently joined this game. It's an In-Browser MMORPG (Mass Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game) made by a college student named Josh. The art isn't the best yet as it is very new, but the simplicity of the game is addictive. Many people compare it to Runescape for some reason, but I like the setup of SoT better. My names on here are: BinaryBible, MorbidObesity, and MadameInsane.



MagicDuel.
This site confused the bejesus out of me for a while! It isn't difficult once you get into it, however, and i've already clocked in 25 wins and 33 losses! In this game, losses are good because you need a balanced profile, so it's not actually that competitive of a game. Plus, you can play it in small bursts and make just as much progress as if you just sat and played all day.
My name on here is: BinaryBible.


Zantarni.
I'm still confused because not everything works for me, I really don't know why not. The games are quite fun, however!
My name on here is: BinaryBible.


Tanoth.
It is a simple game. Buy armor, fight, work, or adventure. EASY. Just don't waste your Bloodstones like I accidentally did :( I thought I could buy them for 10 Currency each, but it turns out you have to pay with real money to get them. D'oh. My name on here is: BinaryBible.

How cool is this shit?





I found this off of galadarling, an amazing girl with an amazing blog that I now look forward to reading daily (p.s. there's a link down below!), and getting educated on fashiony things. So, I added her to my Google Reader, and am excited to be a new reader of hers.



Anyway, quick story for those of you who like animals like this cute, darling, baby skunk. Yeah. So as I see it is late and it is time for me to vacate my boyfriend's house, we decide to cut through a thin patch of woods. It's only about 100 feet or so, but still, there's things in there. As we get up there, we've kinda hiding, attempting to have a private conversation, and we hear rustling. Then, we hear twigs snapping.

I don't think i'm going through those at night anymore, i'm not dealing with some stinky skunk! Live and let live, I guess.
