There's a song on Overclocked Remix's FF7 album Voices of the Lifestream that reminds me, worryingly enough, of the romantic music from Princess Bride. Which is giving me some weird-ass mental images, let me tell you. Of course, it's a nice break from the unrelenting waves of angst the FFVII crowd has been beating me with lately. Hello. My name is Cloud Strife. You killed a metric buttload of people. Prepare to die.
*ahem*
So work today was... well. First, the water heater had broken last night, so the building resembled a kicked anthill while everybody dealt with the floodwaters. Meanwhile, there were still animals to be seen to, so there was me wrestling a half-dozen FRIGGIN HUGE DOGS in and out of their runs all by my onesie (seriously, guys, there was this one dog who outweighed me by about fifty pounds and he absolutely refused to go back inside. It took me fifteen minutes just to get him through the door, no exaggeration.). And let us not even mention the massive cat in whose Cheerios somebody evidently pissed, the massive fragrant piles of poo, and ah yes, the puddles everywhere. And did I mention we had no hot water? Yeah, the water heater had asploded, so.
Suffice to say it was not one of those days where I was done by ten and could sit around reading trashy paranormal romance novels the rest of the time.
Luckily, I have the day off tomorrow, so I can catch up on my writing! :D *peeks at next kinkfest prompt* ...oh god, motorcycle porn. Iiiii... think I'll start on that tomorrow. XD

I know I'm spamming, but I have to write this down before it disappears again. I think I have a theory as to what happened to FF7's world in Kingdom Hearts.
So, when Cloud gives Sephiroth the Black Materia in the Crater? That right there is when their world went to The Darkness. Rather than summon Meteor, Sephiroth summoned the Heartless and Cloud was right in the middle of it with his mind shattered: hence the wing, the meeting up with Hades, and the constant 'guilt guilt angst angst' mode he's in. (More so than he usually is, I mean.)
The problem with this, of course, is that Aeris was already an ex-Aeris by then, so here's where my theory skews a little AU: at the Temple of the Ancients, when Cloud freaks out and hands over the Black Materia and then attacks Aeris? I think Sephiroth was already half-gone to the Heartless by then, because basically Cloud keeps Aeris from running off on her own by injuring her too badly to travel. Guilt guilt, angst angst.
This is a fine note to be going to bed on. *headdesk*

I'm not sure I approve of this blitzball business. I signed up for a menu combat RPG, not a sports sim. Besides, it took me something like six tries to do the Jecht Shot. Six times watching that damn ball smack into Cheetor Tidus's stupid face. I'm pretty sure I'm going to fail hard at this.
And another thing - why don't these people need to breathe!?
Gah. I'm going back to Okami. Things make much more sense when you can just pee on the demons and have done with it.

I seem to be growing an unhealthy love for crack RPF. I wonder if they make a pill for that.
Title: Aliens In the Desert
Fandom: Transformers (Movie) / RPF

Summary: Barack Obama has to adapt to strangeness pretty quickly in his chosen profession; then again, maybe these guys aren't so strange. Er, 'giant alien robots' notwithstanding.

...Yes, I know I should be working on kinkfest. My brain, she does not always stay on the rails.

(Srsly, we've got two dogs and two cats to look after. When it gets busy, it'll be a relief.)
Okay. Virginia? Don't get me wrong, that was some very impressive flurry action on the drive home and I gotta give you props for not making the roadways all messy, but, really, snow? Now? It's not even Thanksgiving yet. ...This better mean we get a white Christmas.
Also, body? It's really not necessary to wake me up around two-thirty AM for no particular reason. I need that sleep.
Also also, I picked up FFX for cheap the other day (oh my god, another RPG, why do I do this to myself) and my only salient observation so far is that Tidus is so Cheetor it's not even funny. Other than that, I have no idea what's going on. I figure if I keep playing until something makes sense, I'll have finished the game in a couple of weeks.

Also, I dreamed I was a were-canid of some sort, and me and my friend were trying to get away from a were-lioness - who, it turned out, was only trying to get a better look at us. She was actually quite polite once she had me pinned down. And all this was after I dreamed I was a very small sprite in a pantheon of cat-goddesses who lived in what looked like the Sleeping Forest from FF7: AC, and apparently I did something Rite because I was rewarded. ...With pregnancy. Clearly this is a patriarchal pantheon.

Re: Saturday's protest
Hello,
I found your protest site online and it said that the protest would be taking place at the US Capitol. The super-secret gay agenda password is "marshmallow." Now, what's the real location?

The real location is at the White House. Remember, don't tell anyone! This secret information mustn't fall into the hands of painfully earnest moogles the enemy!

*headdesk* In other headlines, I am fail. -_-

It was pouring down rain when I got off the Metro stop, but I zipped up my jacket like a brave moogle and headed out anyway. It wasn't hard to find the Capitol building - once you see the dome you're halfway there, anyway - but skipping across slick black streets while the rain collects on your glasses is another matter entirely. I contented myself with the thought that everyone else would be in the same boat (not literally, one hoped) and there's got to be some karmic points awarded for suffering for a good cause. And so, with damp jeans and high hopes, I crossed the street to the front of the Capitol building and found... nothing.
I guess the rain drove justice away after all. I'd arrived a little late, but not that late. Just in case, I wandered up and down the National Mall, keeping my eyes open for any hint of rainbow flags. I saw some Free Tibet protesters, but no Free Marriage. Eventually I admitted defeat and took some pictures before finding my way back home, my furry butt thoroughly kicked.
*sigh* So, yes. Fight the hate, y'all.

If you saw me in the back of a police car, what would you assume I'd been arrested for?

I got my first Lecture at work today. What happened was, when you work on Sundays, you just do your thing and get out, rather than staying 'til noon-thirty like most days. I had thought Saturdays were like that too, so I had left before ten-thirty. And, uh, yeah. I got Called To The Office for that one. *facepalm* It's fine, I'm not really upset, just a little chagrined. And really, considering I've been fired for less, I have no room to complain. ;P
So my job is going well enough, all things considered. I even made friends with a cat who only last week wanted to kill me. (There's still that surly Himalayan who hates me, but as he hates everybody I don't take it personally.) I'm just... restless, I suppose. And a little disappointed. I have to admit I thought that all my problems would be over once I graduated, but... it's been over four months now, my student loans are coming due and I haven't even gotten a callback for a job in my field. I've been throwing my resume at every company I could find since I moved here, and not one of them has even given me a second glance. I went ten thousand dollars in debt to get my associate's, and here I am shoveling poo for nine bucks an hour. I'd be better off right now if I'd just stayed a college dropout.
...okay, I really thought typing this out would make me feel better. *groans and headdesks* Right. Shake it off, moogle. You've got Power Rangers mpreg to write.

Anyone here ever listen to Ann Magnuson band Bongwater? They had a song called "Nick Cave Doll"--
"Just then, Jeff, the famous balding actor,
Famous for his tattooed 'Rebel Rose',
And loose-fitting Italian suits, walks by.
He talks to us about...
That's right.
All the toys he buried in his backyard
So no one else would play with them.
He says one of his favorites
is his Nick Cave Doll.
I feel pity for the man,
and hope one day
He'll grow hair.
Then... I think... "
Wow! They have Nick Cave Dolls now...
I waaaant ooone"
When I saw this, my first throught was--this is truly sick and wrong.
My second thought was I want one.
