My Mom Is Not Quite the 80's Expert I Thought Her To Be...

Apparently my mom didn't know what Rick Astley looked like, because the other day she was taking a Sporcle quiz, and couldn't identify him from his picture because she thought he was black...  She obviously hasn't been Rick Roll'd enough...

Not My Day...

Things are not going well today.  I cannot find a decent place to host the videos for my Pokémon Worst Wishes series, a certain website I go to keeps failing to connect me to the chat room, I feel unmotivated to do most of the stuff I want/need to do, and the things I do feel motivated to do, I'm not making progress on.  Plus, it's just one of those days where my family just gets on my nerves way more than normal.  What is wrong with me that I cannot tolerate those I care about?  *sigh*  Gotta find a way to chill out...

An Excellent Day With My Friend

Today my friend came over.  He told me about his fun experiences at an anime convention, and I showed him some videos on the internet.  We talked a bit, and I lent him the video game "The World Ends With You" for Nintendo DS, because I knew he wanted to play it, and had a feeling he would really enjoy it.  Finally, we watched some episodes of Digimon Season 3 (a.k.a. Digimon Tamers) and enjoyed providing amusing commentary about it.  I had so much fun!!!

Super Smash Bros. Brawl Restart!

I recently decided to erase my save data for the game Super Smash Bros. Brawl so that I could start anew.  This time, to make things interesting, I'm not playing Subspace Emissary until I unlock all the unlockable character (with the exception of Jigglypuff, Toon Link, and Wolf, because they can't be unlocked in Subspace Emissary until it's beaten).  I'm really enjoying it, and have already unlocked Luigi, Ness, Lucario, Snake, and Marth.  Wish me luck!

Links to My Other Blogs Added

Wanted to announce that I added links to my other blogs in the sidebar of this blog.  "The W Zone" is a blog to get my opinions about stuff I like out there (video games, movies, anime, etc.), while "Pokémon Worst Wishes" is a blog for my Pokémon Black & White anime parody series.  Neither one has much on there now, but if either one interests you, please feel free to bookmark it, and check back in the future for them to get updates.

Until next time, everyone!
