Ooh, the little cream-filled kind!

azuriteSecond day of work: success! Not only did I finish two pick lists (basically, a list of online orders that need to be pulled from the text floor), but I also worked the Online Pickup desk out in the concourse-- on a computer with 'Net access! Between orders, I sneakily caught up on people's LJs. :)
After work, I snagged a delish and super sweet cream filled doughnut at Krispy Kreme-- but I couldn't finish it in one sitting; it was THAT sweet. I waited outside for Baba to pick me up, and we headed home. I parked myself on the comp (as usual) and did the usual-- checked LJs, emails, and other stuff... but eventually I got a bit bored and decided to either nap or play FFX-2. The lure of finishing up the Chocobo Dispatches got to me, so I loaded the game up-- and to my complete and utter surprise, the moment my Save finished Loading, Clasko comes wailing up to me about the Chocobo Dungeon! :O I thought I had at least 6 more dispatches to go, but I guess the ones I did in the beginning of the game worked out! ;D
I went through the Chocobo Dungeon with the aid of a printed out map (thank god for color printers!) and a Chocobo Ranch Guide from GameFAQs... I still got lost a few times, so I had to orient where I was on the screen with the map next to me on the couch. I finally got to the Anything Eater and --even to my surprise-- 0wnz3d him quite fast. I grabbed the Machina Reactor and most of the other treasures... Once I'd opened up all the doors, I got to the Amazing Chocobo (ooh, rainbow colored!) and saved once aboard the Celsius. Being at Level 99, I thought I'd try Chac once more --especially since I faced a great deal of Gucumatzs in the Chocobo Dungeon.
-_- Still no good. 2 Dark Knights, A Gunner with Trigger Happy Lvl. 3... I still die. Primarily because of that stupid stone gaze thing. I can't stand how the Via Infinitio Cloisters prevent all status-prevention equips from working-- even when they're part of a dressphere! >_< I want to get Chac to Oversoul at the start of the battle, which I guess means either returning to the Chocobo Dungeon (can I do that?) or Zanarkand. How many Gucumatzs will I have to fight before Chac oversouls, though? Stupid Yunalesca... skanky ho... >_*kicks Dreamweaver MX* Stupid thing closed on me when I tried to paste the content of Chapter 7B's tables OUTSIDE the table-- I've done it with every other chapter before, but nooo, 7B is SOOOO huge, it just kaputzed on me. -_- Finally, I came up with the wise idea to just delete the table tags, so... now all's good, and I'm editing it. Still, no one will see the edits until I am 100% done with WDKY10. I'm determined... if a little bit distractable. ^_~
Weird thought of the hour: I'm listening to the Para Para Paradise Nonstop Megamix, and "Made of Fire" just started playing. And you know how Para Para songs tend to be interpreted in multiple ways (for example "Night of Fire" and "Knight of Fire")? Well, I had this bizarre idea that someone should make a Mahoromatic AMV to "Made of Fire," and call it "Maid of Fire." Somehow that seems like a Very Richie Project. *g*
-_- Something else. Look, I'm not a yaoi fangirl, so I don't have the mindset of one, but it really pisses me off when YFGs see things that are not there. You know, interpreting perfectly boring, mundane, or hell, just PLAIN scenes as "OMG!TEHSEX0RZ!" Get over yourselves. Seto Kaiba is an overconfident ego-maniac. He is NOT an uke. He would never SUBMIT to being an uke. Get your heads out of that toilet. (Now that I think about it, most of the guys in Yu-Gi-Oh are like this. Okay, Yami Yuugi is, Jounouchi Katsuya is, and to a lesser degree, so is Honda Hiroto. Otogi Ryuuji and Bakura Ryou might be a BIT submissive, but... STILL! This makes me want to rant about how not every single guy in a given fandom can be gay and fux0ring each other, while the one/two/three girls are complete sleazy bitches who deserve to die a horrible death. People who write such pathetic fics deserve to be locked away in a plain white padded cell for the rest of their lives (or even better, suffer the same fate as the female characters they kill off).
Gah, and what is up with in the first FIVE fics in the Romance Yu-Gi-Oh Section at FFnet, TWO of them are MPREGs!?? MEN CANNOT GET PREGNANT! GET OVER YOURSELVES YOU DISGUSTING FANGIRLS! -_- Adopt a child.
Finally, what is up with the whole "It's not 5000, it's 3000 years!" thing in Yu-Gi-Oh. As far as my research reveals, 3000 years ago was too far in the dynasties to have been "accurate." That was around Tutkanhamun's time, wasn't it? Pharaoh was supposed to come before then... I think 5000 is pretty good! o_O Or something...? (I said in WDKY8 that it was 3000. I did intensive research on every nitpicky detail like that, so maybe I'm just having a brain fart at the moment.)
Got my book list. Worked more on WDKY10, and finished loads of revisions-- namely for 7B, 8, and 9. WDKY10... very close to being done. Will be mailing out final edits to relevant parties soon. Want to work on You and Me or another cute/funny YGO fic soon. Nothing as serious and angsty as Prophecy Girl... sorry Atlantis!
U-M-A! U-M-A!
I'm outtie.
