People do not teach their children boundaries these days. For example, by the time I seven or eight I knew not to go crawl up in the bushes in front my neighbor's house, peek into the window, and make scratching noises and hiss at the cat in the window. The little shits in my neighborhood, however, can't seem to grasp the concept that doing that is wrong. I'd go out there and give the little bastards a piece of my mind if I wasn't sick and in my pj's.

I guess I shouldn't have expected manners from the brats considering how, a year or so ago, they thought it would be fun to randomly open the front door and let the cats outside. It was unlocked because it was daylight and my dad and I were both home. That, of course, does not happen anymore; the front door is locked and/or barred at all times now. As it should be, honestly.

Maybe it's because the kids on the cul-de-sac I live in are mostly boys. (There are a few girls and I haven't had any problems with them.) I don't know. I do know that if it happens again, I'm going to scare the crap out of 'em. And if their parents say anything to me, well, I'll just tell them they should teach their kids not to peep into other people's windows.

and now, deeeep thoughts....

Thinking of dropping from ProjectVerde. For the first time, I'm just not hearing Noa's voice in anything I write for him there, and I don't have the time/can't be bothered to refresh my canon memory for him. No one would really miss me anyway, since I'm just barely making activity. I don't feel like I'm getting much out of the game anymore. I mainly joined because Conrad-mun from Cambiare was bringing him there, but Conrad's even less active than I have Noa. I always seem to run into creative blocks when I'm playing there. Everyone seems really nice, but I don't know. The game itself doesn't feel like the right fit for him. I've been looking on-and-off at Reverie Lane on LJ. It's small with an interesting premise, which I could manage pretty well. Actually, I thought about apping Kira there in case Romdeau caves. But yeah. Don't know what I'm going to do about ProjectVerde yet. Herm.

Speaking of Romdeau, I don't think I'll ever shake the fact that no one is doing their part to advertise the game. That irritates me a lot.

Shinobu's one-year anniversary just passed this week, and I don't plan on taking her out anytime soon. This is only the second game I've stayed in for at least a year. Orochimaru's Agenda was the first, and I was short I think a month-ish of making it a two-year term. But anyway, Paradisa's been a good ride so far, despite how much I whine and worry about how I'm doing with Shinobu, lawls. It's the biggest game I've been part of, and I'm still trying to get used to it, but no matter what the haters say I love it and I've done well enough so far. Shinobu has and is establishing CR, and muns who know next to nothing about No More Heroes canon enjoy bouncing their characters off of her. Double-digit comment counts over 30 in her posts are just about the norm now. Six, maybe even eight(?) months back I could only dream of that sort of activity. Paradisa will always be one of my fondest RPing memories, whatever happens in the future.

That said... I'm still jealous that all the other journal posts save one related to Travis's most recent lost are getting more comments than mine. Petty Ashi is petty, fuun. And I don't think I will ever shake the feeling that Travis-mun hates how I play Shinobu but is too nice to say so and Bad Girl-mun is faking loving how I play Shinobu because we're all canonmates. Paranoid Ashi is also paranoid. orz

Um, I wanted to go into another diatribe about how I want Romdeau to grow but I'm the only one who's advertising it anywhere and that makes me a sad panda, but I have work at 10 a.m. and need to be awake 8:30ish so yeah. I'll just leave off by saying I tried pimping it at app_this_plz but kind of really don't expect anyone to bite the bait. As usual. Le sigh.
