Time's Fun When You're Having Flies

(That's totally my Froglok Conjuror's catch phrase.)

I can't believe it's been a whole month since I've posted anything. It's not like I've been slacking, either…I've put in enough hours on a recent corporate project to warrant browsing for a laptop of my very own. Yvria, my Weaponsmith in EQ2, hit level 80 last week. Kharri, my Carpenter, finished her crafter epic yesterday. I'm steadily leveling up my combat jobs in Free Realms, one at a time. My Animal Crossing: City Folk town is still chugging along, and I log in daily to keep all my flowers watered and stuff.

With the weather changing from summer to fall, I've had a fibro flare-up or two that's slowed me down for a few days. Right now I'm suspicious of some intense coughing fits I've been having recently. If I feel myself passing away, I'll let everyone know well in advance. No, you can't have my stuff. :p

I've decided to move my guild's website from Dragonfly CMS to WordPress, since I've been really getting into making new themes lately. I'm even seriously considering making a WordPress port of Roster Master as a plugin, but we'll see how that goes when I have more time to concentrate on it.

I'm designing an AION website for an ex-EQ2 sig artist friend. It's going to be way cool and will be launching before the game is released later this month. The AetherNet — keep an eye on it!

K.K. Slider Wallpaper

I made this today on a whim…just had a picture in my head and wanted to try to recreate it. It's 1680×1050 (widescreen), but if you'd like a different size, let me know.

Hoppy Easter, Everybunny!

Bunny Day in Animal Crossing: City Folk was this past Sunday, and it was a hoot. From Zipper T. Bunny (the obviously underpaid and insincerely enthusiastic mascot) in front of Town Hall to the gazillions of bunny eggs he'd buried around town, it was easily an all-day event. I found great relief in the fact that each player in each town has his or her own "set" of bunny eggs to find, and the locations of remaining eggs change every time you login, making it easier to find those you may have missed before.

In the spirit of being festive — you all know how much I looove to be festive! — I redid my second floor bedroom in the Godawful so-cute-it's-hideous Egg furniture series (or is it a set? I get them confused!). Clockwise from top left, we have the Egg Wardrobe, Egg Toy Set, Egg Bench, Egg Lamp, Egg Table, Egg Chair, Egg Clock, Egg Dresser, Egg Stereo, and Egg Bed, all of which is complemented by the Egg Wall and Egg Floor. EGG!!

It was a load of fun, and that's no yolk. (*bah-dum-ching*)

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Here I am in my Leprechaun design with the Shamrock Hat that Nintendo sent me in the mail this morning. Also pictured is the Isiston town flag, featuring the heavenly visage of Princess Isis herself!

Destination: AC Cross-Platform Comprehension

Angela — Tue, 17 Mar 2009 02:08:31 +0000

So I realized after fiddling with AC:WW for a day or two that I had totally deluded myself about the ability to visit myself cross-platform. The truth: By using the DS's "Download Play" feature, I can pack a "DS Suitcase" and take my Wii character on the move. I just have to remember to come back when I'm finished; otherwise, I'll lose everything I've earned on the Wii. Tabula rasa FTL.

No matter how hard I try, I can't do anything along the lines of DS to Wii play…only Wii to DS, and that's only temporary. I have to say, though, it is kinda cool that the Wii and DS can find each other in "the cloud" so easily. No flaming hoops required, just click and go.

I won the big fishing tournament in WW yesterday with a 45.5" sea bass. I got a nice trophy from the mayor in the mail this morning as well as an announcement on the town bulletin board. The AC fishing tourney is this Saturday, but it's for a specific fish, so that'll be interesting.

As promised, I'm including a little pic of my AC character! On the Wii, I'm Angela from Isiston, and my friend code is 2621-8145-4501; on the DS, I'm Mona from Mimiburg, and my friend code is 0474-3487-3779.
