Listening to: I can't decide if I like Cash's version or Moby's version of this song. I guess I'll just have to keep listening to both until I decide, what a shame.
Yeah, I haven't been around for a while. I don't know how much that's going to change this summer, but I at least felt like I should make another journal announcing I'm still in some semblance of life. This summer I have a lot planned, and near the top of that planned list is finishing an MOC that's been mostly finished for a good long time now. I think I liked to talk Ohnahn up a lot in previous MOC entries, but I never got around to actually finishing her. This summer, I'm going to do my best to change that. If I don't have pictures of a finished Ohnahn on this account by the summer's end, someone should take away all of my Internets forever. Future Me won't like it, but Present Me which will become Past Me really needs to threaten him into getting his shit together with this project.
What else? This summer I've got my Gamecube back in working order, so I plan to power through a stack of games from when I was but a wee lad in a nostalgia fueled video game binge. I powered through all of Custom Robo's story and half the tournament nonsense a few days ago, completely worth not getting anything else done that day. Seriously, Custom Robo was such a great game. Go and find it used. It's a hit at parties for crazy people.
For the none of you that got excited when I wrote about my noise music collective, Paramus Catholic, a number of months ago, you'll be just as thrilled to hear PC has projects! Plural! in the works. We're aiming for a more refined sound with our next EP, ΔNÐ. We're also working on something a little more lyric-based, The abyss stares back, Father.. We're also aiming to sound more pretentious as avant-garde musicians, using terms like "refined sound" and "avant-garde musicians." I'll likely scream at all of you about each album when they come out. Alternatively, there's a Facebook page you can like so I don't have to scream at you (hint: I will anyway).
What's that? Some people are expecting me to keep writing? Uh, well. Shit. So, funny story, I haven't done that in a hell of a long time. Turns out, being in seven tabletop RPGs during the school year and humoring a crippling Skyrim addiction leaves you with little time to revise a short story. Especially considering I was never that fond of Road Trip to begin with. I do have plans to keep writing more in the Trolls of Oregon continuum, though who knows when that'll take place. It's not really high on my priority list at the moment. Also, Turaga Ultamate's Tales? Hah! Definitely not a case of repeated history or anything. Don't be so silly. That's just another writing project I'll never finish. No correlation. Only two data points.
What's going on with me and school? I don't suck, so woohoo. I picked up a linguistics major because it's the one thing I can go to college for and enjoy (I was disappointed to find a distinct lack of classes about angrily blogging about meaningless topics, which is my ideal profession). If you ever want to know the difference between the various fricatives, let me know. Because I'll be able to tell you about the interesting ones.
I think that's about it for this lengthy ramble. I'm out.

Listening to: I've just recently realized Prince is a damn good guitarist. This song is undeniable proof.
It's not quite that day yet, but I don't think I'll have any sort of reliable Internet when it actually is. Also, I want to write this now.
So, I'm on break for a decent while, bless the Divines. I think I'll manage to get a special holiday episode of The Trolls of Oregon up in time for the New Year.
Oh, right, the apocalypse. Being dead is a lot like being alive, which is sort of disappointing. I was at least expecting something marginally different, but at least the Internet isn't bad. And Gangnam Style hit a billion views on the sa
Oh Cool, Another Prolonged Absence
Yeah, uh. I pretty consistently find myself in this position, apologizing for vanishing for a few months with nothing to show but some trollfiction. It begins to border on "awful person" territory sometimes. Not that I'm self-loathing or anything, but I sort of have an obligation here to you folks here and on AO3. What am I babbling about? Christ.
College makes me busy. What time I've had has been largely consumed by the RPG groups I'm in or ravaging skulls as Axebeard Beardaxe in Skyrim. I've done a woefully pitiful amount of writing, aside from a fairly frightening stack of trollfiction. I have half-written things flitting about, some of w
Video Capture Help?
Right, so, if you read the first word of my last journal, you'd figure out that I'm at college. Things are going pretty well, and I'm writing here and there, though still no Homestuck fic updates for the foreseeable future, unfortunately. But that's not what I'm making a journal about here.
Recently I got a USB DVD maker. Because I don't have a TV, my only option if I want to play anything on my Gamecube is to use one with my laptop. Unfortunately, I'm having a ridiculous time getting the damn thing to work.
It's a Kworld USB2800D. I've downloaded the included drivers, have the USB and 3.5 plugs in the right places, everything. For whatever
Some Things: A Series of Announcements
College.
I forgot to mention, this is a thing that's happening to me right now. I know I'm hardly a prolific submitter (ha), but that flow is likely to be even more restricted for a little while as I figure things out and I settle into a routine.
Speaking of writing: good news and bad news.
The good news is I'm most of the way through a sort-of sequel to The Meaning of Fistmas, called Karkat and Kanaya Save Fistmas: Another Inspiring(?) Holiday(?) Tale (knowing dA, the subtitle will probably only be on the AO3 upload). People seemed to like The Meaning of Fistmas, and I really enjoyed Bláqlebuh, so I figured I'd do a sequel piece. It'
