The name of the Game is: Mystic Hopscotch.

Ever have that feeling that your mind is wandering without you? You're awake and perfectly aware of what you're involved in at the time and yet all you can do is sit there and wonder how you got from trying to write an inspiring Sestina involving Knuckles the Echidna to pondering the meaning of life from the viewpoint of a neurotic house elf. I call that feeling Mystic Hopscotch. When your third eye has run amok, leaving your Id, Ego and Super-Ego to engage in the psychological equivalent to Super Smash Brothers Brawl; THAT is Mystic Hopscotch.
This blog, when I manage to update it, will contain my odd thoughts, disturbing dreams, insignificant life events, progress in all of my video games and the occasional Bento Box. My references may zig-zag erratically from one genre to another with no separation. If you don't understand me: tough cookies. I know what I'm saying, at least most of the time, so I don't really mind if nobody else gets it.

Right... the personal stuff now. I am an Otaku who married an Otaku. I don't think anyone else could put up with me, honestly. I am five years younger than him and like to torment him about it sometimes, reminding him that when I was 15 he was 20 and I was illegal. It's fun to watch him mull over that for a little bit whenever I say it. Ironically this is the same comment that brings him out of depression on many occasions.

Note to Self: Don't play Dark Chronicle while drinking ever ever again.
I have a longhair black cat named Doorstop who gave birth to tortoiseshell kittens named Caboose, The Captain, Shanny and Booger. Booger is evil incarnate and angering her is tantamount to suicide. Booger lives with my mother, The Captain and Shanny belong to a co-worker and Caboose lives with his father Zuko with my ex-flatmate Erica. Don't be so surprised. If something is born in my apartment and I helped deliver I'm going to keep track of the little buggers.

I also have two hamsters that will be named after they survive through the week, since my last two did not. My husband has a BIG grey cat with brown spots named Spork, after the Eldest Irkin Almighty Tallest that wasn't mentioned too much in the ZIM series.
I take Bento Boxes to work full of good healthy food that for some reason isn't helping me lose weight. It's an addicting hobby, much like Katamari Damacy. Unlike Katamari Damacy, one cannot use a Bento Box to roll up people and set them on fire in the sky, even if they are already moving away from you.

There was a point to this entry but it has temporarily escaped my mind. I have sent the Flying Monkeys after it, but Azkadellia hasn't been in very good control of them lately. She called them Mobats and they got all offended. Will send the Good Feathers to track Flying Monkeys, and maybe a few Trollans for moral support.
