You Can Tell He's Worn Out

I am tired, beat, exhausted, and just about every other synonym for "fatigued" you can think of. Why is that, you ask? Well, I'm going to have to cite five words and a number (or four words and two numbers if you count written-out numbers as numbers):

Pacific Media Expo 2012 - Day Two

As draining as the whole experience is, it's rather fun and what not. Obviously, you'll be getting an entry about my time here (just like how PMX 2011 got one last year), but that won't be for some time to come.

In the meantime, I think I'm going to hit the bed and snooze for a good while. Been up since 0630 and I finally stopped working just now. (Doesn't mean I spent the whole time between then and now working, but a majority of the time was work.) I think I deserve the night off... but duty calls. *leaves*

You Can Tell He's Excited

Too busy doing stuff to post anything decent today! Will tell you about PMX 2012 later on. For now, I got Security things to do, so off I go!

The Pointer Sisters Told Me to Say This

Thursday usually means an all-date day for me. As much as I value my writing and my blog, I have to say that sometimes, there are other things people that take priority over such a silly website. (Besides, it's not like we've been missing much, have we...?)

In other news, Pacific Media Expo starts tomorrow!!! I'm so excited! And I just can't hide it! (I'm about to lose control and I think I like it! =P)

Excitement Jitters

With Pacific Media Expo 2012 just around the corner, I can't help but be excited. And that means that I'm too busy - much, much too busy to want to type anything coherent.

All I can say is that the weekend's gonna be amazing, and I'll be telling you all about it once I get back!

Yes, I'm aware that it seems that I'm copping out, but you know what? You'll be getting some good stuff soon, so hold your horses!

A Gamer's Day Off

Today's one of those days where I spent it doing nothing but playing video games.

Yay for Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island!
And boy, was it well-spent. Now if you'll excuse me; I've got castles to clear. =D

Entering the Program

Sometimes you get gripped by something so awesome and crazy you can't help but be hooked. When this happens, embrace it. It may be controversial or sickening or aghastly shocking - but it's something that you'll remember for ages to come.

That's happening to me right now in the form of Koushun Takami's famed novel Battle Royale I just started the book earlier this morning... ...and holy shit, is this thing freaky.

As such, this is all you get. But what I ended getting is a map, a compass, some bread and water, and a... *ruffles through a duffel bag* ...wait, where's my weapon!?

A Rogue's New Home

Today's entry is both about roleplaying and about World of Warcraft. As such, I must start it by stating something interesting: Gefallen is no longer on Tichondrius.

Wat.

Starved

I find it utterly amazing how this lack of inspiration is totally getting me.

Honestly, I don't get it. For the past few months I've been starved on ideas and the desire to sit down for a length of time to type something up. October was a prime and egregious month that showcased this dry spell, and I have to wonder why it is that I've succumbed so badly to this.

I want to find out... but at the same time I don't feel like doing so. That's just the problem. Or maybe the problem is that I'm tired of things and want change. I have to make these changes... and yet I don't have much motivation to do so. Isn't that just great?

Of course, I don't even know what I'm talking about - this is a "mind stream" entry, so everything's pretty much being typed up as I think it. (Wow, I think I need sleep.) Is this the sign of me jumping down the deep end? A sign that I need a vacation? Some other thing signifying that I need something else to do?

I'm not sure. But for now, I think I'm sure of one thing: getting some characters leveled. And maybe taking a nap. And if time permits: getting lunch with a friend or two (hopefully). I haven't really planned anything yet, so we'll have to see. (Although to be honest: that nap's sounding really good...)

But what to do right now? Between that nap, role-playing, leveling, reading a book (just got my hands on Battle Royale), and other things, I just can't decide!

We'll let time (and my boredom) dictate my actions until it's time to work.

Wander, My Friend

Today's been one of those days where I decided to take a look at a lot of things. While I focus on things going on around the world, I had to take a look at myself, because I realized something. Despite some good times and things, the rest of my life... well, haven't been so great. Things have forced me to take a left turn into the middle of nowhere (quite literally, might I add).

Maybe I'm a little frustrated a tad over my head with all this frustration. Said frustration stems from how some things in my life are going. That's normal for a lot of people - myself included. Between the sudden spike in gas prices last month (yay for California's ineptness involving the distribution of winter-blend gasoline), the notion that things seem to be falling apart for some people, and the most stable of situations seem to be imploding upon themselves, it's hard to disagree if someone says they're (somewhat) frazzled.

I say all this because in the journey of life we've been traveling, we've all lost our way somehow. For some, they've recovered and they're out there doing something. As for me... well, I don't know where I am or where I'm going. I've deviated from the path I originally had mapped out - and now, I'm lost in a forest of illusions (and I'm not talking about World 5 from Super Mario World). October was a pretty sure sign that I got myself confused and wandering around... but I think now's the time for me to find my way out.

You know it's a bad sign when you receive a list of tasks to finish that's taller than you.
Now before you leave in disgust and think, "Oh, great; this entry's going to be some lame-o one where Josh rants on and on forever about how (some) things in his life suck," let me tell you that it's NOT. (Okay, let me rephrase: "it's not going to be over 25% should I start ranting about my life.") Yes, I'm a tad over my head with some of my stress, but life isn't 100% down the crapper right now. (I mean, do you even see a "flash vent" tag up there? ... ...oh, yeah. that "flash vent" tag. Surprisingly, this is not why it's up there.) Besides, I've found things that have made this otherwise trite life of mine somewhat bearable, and to me, that's worth a lot.

However, if you're going to leave because you're under the impression that this entry's going to be a long one: then I have to say you suck, you illiterate doof you're completely correct. I have to make up for the crap-fest of "entries" that was October, so as such... expect a long and (hopefully) good entry for once. I'm kind of overdue for one, no?

Friends over Blogging

Today's a new month, and I promise you that we're going to have a much better month than the last one. I think I feel some inspiration coming on, and we're going to have a much better session than last one.

But not tonight. I'm with friends right now, and as such... they take priority. Yay!
