Aw man seriously, this is one of the worst illnesses I've ever had to deal with. It feels like I'm in purgatory. I'm barely able to sit at my computer and type this, but laying down forces me to feel the pure discomfort of COVID. My brain is busy at the computer, but it's draining my energy. I can lay down, but then my mind wanders and fixates on the misery I'm in. Screw COVID, like for real! Curr... » Continue Reading
I'm feeling better than yesterday. Things don't feel so hopeless now. Maybe I'm just in a rut. It happens to me sometimes, even with the medication. Still, though, if I keep ending up in ruts like this, electroconvulsive therapy may still be an option on the table. Not so keen on ketamine therapy, so I likely won't be considering that. Funny how I'd consider shocking my brain over it, but that's j... » Continue Reading
Y'all might be wondering where the heck I've gone off to. Well, the Christmas season was busy for me. I'm also deeply burnt out over Pokémon, sadly. I played so much Y that it made me pretty tired. I'm still a fan of the series, don't worry, I've just been focusing on other things right now. My biggest interest at the moment is Toontown Rewritten. I've been playing through their Sellbot expansion.... » Continue Reading
I saw this blog post by a user named Orion Matthew Patrick "silly skrunkle" Miller that was a 70 questions survey and thought it would be fun to do. Feel free to copy and do it too if you like it. 01. Do you have a good relationship with your parents? Mostly. Didn't used to (it was trash honestly until I became an adult). 0 » Continue Reading
The power went out before I finished writing this, so now I have to rewrite this entry. I hate my life. Long read ahead, so buckle up and enjoy. I blazed through 2 more gyms. The last gym I beat was the Fairy gym. Though I was underleveled (I have been for the majority of the game), I was able to get through it. My team is pretty solid and gets me through most stuff. Poppy's ridiculous Special Def... » Continue Reading
Lots happened again! I was too tired to write an update yesterday, so it got pushed to today. Things have been a little rough in real life. I've been really tired, and also my sister is really unwell and is in the hospital, so that's been really stressful to me. I've been coping alright, but I still feel very stressed. But enough of that! Onto Pokémon! I earned 3 more badges. The easiest gym was t... » Continue Reading
SO I played a ton of Pokémon Y today. It's been fun. I've met Lysandre so I'm going to be learning what his deal is. I'm trying to absorb the themes I get from the story. I barely remember it from when I first played it. It's been a little while for sure. I'll start by saying this guy's dialogue makes him sound like the most super villain to ever super villain. Lysandre wants to create a beautiful... » Continue Reading
I made it to Lumiose City after blazing through the first gym. So far the game hasn't been too hard. I received the Experience Share, but decided to turn it off. I also gave super training a whirl and considered using it to train my Pokémon. However, now after some thought, I've decided I'm only going to focus on Pokémon-Aime instead. As useful as super training is, I want to play the game a lot l... » Continue Reading
It's been literal years since my first playthrough of Pokémon Y. I've been playing SoulSilver, HeartGold, and White lately, so I figure I should return to another game I used to play. I haven't done any team planning, but I know for sure that I want a Hawlucha. Amount of in-game time: 1 hour 14 minutes Gym Badges: 0 Pokémon: Montu - Pansear - Hardy Nature - Gluttony Ability - Met in Santalune Fore... » Continue Reading
