Thinking about myself
I've been thinking and I believe that how I am is that if I fall in love with someone and they like me back, then yeah I'd be interesting in doing some sexual things with them if they give me consent for it, but I don't need sex and if there's no fun or love at all when we do it then I definitely don't want to do it. Love and fun is a relationship is what matters most to me, and I wouldn't like any sexual experience I have to be merely sexual. Also there would most likely be babysteps that I'd want to make before "jumping into big water" so I probably won't give consent till such things are done, but yeah. I've just been thinking about that.

Mad Lib Game
Ok so I've had this idea for a Mad Lib video game for a while, but it's mostly been just "I'd like to play that". Now tho, I've been brainstorming ideas of how I'd like such a game to be as well as some concepts that should be put into consideration while making such a game.
First tho, if you don't know what Mad Libs are, they're little games where (speaking from playing only online ones) you're asked to fill out a list of words, and they'll ask for specifics, like a noun for one blank, a verb for another, ect. When you fill this out and continue, it puts those words you gave it into blanks in a short story, which often times leads to a funny result. Ever since I thought that this should be used in a video game, I instantly wanted it.
I'm thinking of developing such a game, but it'll be a side project cause Life Wars is my main right now. Other than the brainstorm list I have for it, I also got a list of RPG plots and such that I think would be really helpful! To make it more adventurous and have the player be more excited about wanting to see how the story unfolds, it'd probably be a good idea to have the storylines be random in some way, like randomized plot devices and senerios that the player will face as well as the main plot (which can be random too). If it's not like this, it'd basically be 'same s@#%, different words" and get boring real fast.
The only important brainstorming ideas I have for this game concept is-well, I'll list them.
1: THE main thing about such a thing/what people are looking forward to is the story and how wacky or warped it becomes based on their word selection. Because of this, there must be semi-easy ways to progress the story. Fun gameplay would be great, but if it overshadows the story and/or you have to do tons of gameplay to continue (like level grind for 5 hours to beat a boss or get a key item), then its focus goes to the gameplay add the player won't feel like there's much reward for the words they put in. Idk though, maybe someone could make it work.
2: I think for the kind of game I'd want with this, the player's word choices have to feel important, so I feel like most of the words should replace key things to the story. Things like villain plans, legendary items, protag's mission, ect. Some minor replacements here and there should be ok, like in place of potions/common items, but most should go to main story stuff.
3: For me, if a word in a spot doesn't make sense in a sentence, it just kinda lets me down. Like for base/root verbs that you do to something else vs ones you do to/by yourself for example. Say we need a root verb to do to the villain and we only ask for a verb. The player puts "think" so "I will think the villain!". Not good. Most action verbs that you can do to others you can do to yourself too, so there
isn't much probability for screw ups, but still. I think it'd be better to be vaguely specific when asking for words, like what kind of nouns you want. Places, events, things, names?
But yeah, that's just my take. I think a Mad Lib game would be nice idea to develop, and would be lots of fun to make as well as play. Maybe using those RPG plots for it will let me gain better understanding of the senerios that I can use for other games.

The World God Only Knows: Goddesses
Ok so I marathoned The World God Only Knows: Goddesses with my irl friend, Alex, and this is basically my review(?). Keep in mind though that I didn't see any of the OVAs before watching
it, so yeah. I didn't see how the 2-B Pencils got made or Kanon asking Keima if they met before, or the Tenri Arc so Tenri was new to me at the time.
So without all the OVAs in me, I watched Goddesses with my friend and yeah a bunch of stuff that we didn't know about was being talked about. My friend thought they might have added more eps, from 8 to 12, but I reminded him that I downloaded 12 eps for him so that couldn't have been it, so he reminds me of TWGOK having OVAs, so we left it at that and continued watching.
At first I didn't like the idea of Keima having to track down "Goddesses" cause I thought it'd make the anime a little too complicated to follow and just be a clusterf@#% of events happening at once, but that wasn't so, and I was actually entertained more than the last 2 seasons!
Yui was one of my favorite parts of it because she was acting like a player instead of a heroine, and it was fun seeing Keima dressed as a girl! >w< But yeah, I was routing for Yui to have a Goddess and I HOPES GOT ANSWERED!
Of course that saddest part was the whole Chihiro/Keima thing, especially at the very end. Just SOOOOO SAD! That s@#% bummed me out for like 2 days!
For the parts that I really want to see that aren't in the anime, like Yui and Tsukiyo's conquests and more, I REALLY hope they're in the manga. I want to see/experience them SOOO BAD!
TL/DR: Overall, it was a great season, tho how I'd rate it is probably right between good and great. Either way I'm left wanting to see more and waiting for a 4th season of TWGOK!
And I want to know everything I missed out on story wise, I NEED TO KNOW!
If you want to know more about what I think about TWGOK:Goddesses or TWGOK in general, hit me up with a comment!

Lets Plays
I have this secret desire to make Lets Plays, though I wouldn't really be a Lets-Player. ;w; Like I'd just do random Let's Plays of games I like and I won't do them often. I'd just do them for fun cause I'd like to play a game and kinda have people experience what I experience while being wacky, crazy, goofy and just having a blast.
Thing is though that most games I want to Lets Play, there are complications with recording and playing a game at the same time, as well with editting vids. I'd like to use Windows Movie Maker, but that thing just really dampens the vid quality when publishing vids, don't know why. In short, I'll probably need a new, beefier computer as well as my own internet before I can even do a Lets Play.
Some game's I'd like to Lets Play are:
Disgaea DS
Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky
Threads of Fate
Yeah that's it, but there are some kinda one-shot vids I'd like to make playing games like Driver and Lost Saga. Maybe even Team Fortress 2, but it depends on the beefiness of the computer I get. I was told from my irl friend, Alex, that there are these computers made by some "Alien Ware" people or something that are great gaming computers, so yeah.

Try and Make Money
Because of my back problems and my heart surgery (which makes it where I can't lift over 25 pounds), I believe I don't have much of a chance when it comes to finding a job. I could probably get something like cashier for some small place, but even then my friend says that in his work experience, there will always be some guy(s) that get on your nerves and if they see that what they do bothers you, they do it more and more till you quit or something, cause that's what bullies do to make themselves feel better. He said more than that, but my thoughts on it is if it's just mental abuse that would be ok and I could try and manage, but if they do shit like that dumb SOPA thing people did in high school, I'm afraid of them doing it so much and hard that they fuck up my back more and then I REALLY won't be able to work. ;; So I probably won't pursue an actual job anymore...
My friend also suggested getting disability income, but I've applied twice and no dice. For me and my conditions, I think applying again would just be a waste of time.
The only way I can make money would be small jobs for small money-like babysitting, and doing the LIFELeadership business thing. If I can't get an actual job, then for secure money it'd be best to go full throttle with LIFELeadership. I'm not all into the community though, so it's gonna be rough.

My Back
(Alternate Title-I have no mattrice, can I sleep in yours)
Ok so since this is bothering me right now (3/14/15 11:17pm) I'm gonna talk about my bad back and how I have no mattrice.
My back is definitely not in the best condition. Ever since 2012, where I had sharp back pain for a week and sometimes I couldn't even get out of bed, I've had back problems, though they've never been as bad as that one week, since I expect it now and lay down to prevent the pain from getting too bad.
Well, since we moved from Centerville August of 2014, I left behind my mattrice since laying on it on the floor started to hurt my back instead of help. It was an old mattrice so I was ok with leaving it. We moved back to Sturgis in the outskirts and we were living with a friend of my mother cause he offered to let us stay till we found a place since we got a "notice to quit" saying our tendency was up and if we didn't move within a week, they'd evict us. At my mother's friend's place I was able to sleep on a mattrice that was alright. It had a musky smell sometimes, but I was able to sleep in an ok mattrice.
Feb of 2015 we found our own place and we still can't afford a mattrice just yet, but I have been sleeping on 2 cushions from our couch. It was ok until March when it started to become uncomfortable and actually hurts my back more. I've tried laying on them in a different way that my irl friend, Alex, suggested, and it was ok for about 4 days, but then I woke up today (3/14/15) with a REALLY sore back. Getting out and walking to the library and back seemed to make it better somehow, but I still have a dilemma of how I'm suppose to sleep now till I get a mattrice. Hopefully I can find something that works. Anyway bye for now!
UPDATE(3/16/15)
I have a set up that kinda works now. Currently it hurts my back a little, but it goes away pretty quickly after waking up. Hopefully it stays like this till I get a mattrice. Maybe I could get a pic of my setup sometime, if someone comments saying they want to see it. :3

Use of Blogger
I've been thinking of using Blogger again to blog about stuff since I can't get on tumblr and such till I get internet again.
So yeah, I'm just gonna blog about whatever, with no rhyme or reason. Use Blogger as a tool to get thoughts and feelings out of me and such, so expect more of that! Maybe!
