TCG Fever

Another “Hurricane” defeated. I guess they don’t make ‘em like they used to. I didn’t even get to stay home. All we got was scattered showers. Dissapointing.

I joined another TCG, Fatal Cards. These TCGs are very addicting I seem to be most active in Mystic at the moment. It could be because I have the ability to donate my own decks and graphics. I hate it when I see a deck of a favorite character and all the images they have on the cards are unflattering, washed out, or all look the same. I’m happy when I’m able to contribute with unique images, it puts those few thousand images I have on my hard drive to use! Unfortunately, nobody updates as much as I want to play. Not their fault, Real Life comes before Internet Life. I can personally attest to this. I don’t want to join too many and become overwhelmed, but I love playing all those games! Also, the collecting is a free way to let my pack-rat tendencies loose (and doesn’t take up physical space). I would probably have fun setting up and running a TCG, but I don’t want to get over my head or have to put it on hiatus or neglect it. Maybe I should look into a TCG staff position, once I get a high enough level. Who knows with me…

Throwing Rocks at Hurricanes

Halooo! So, I’ve diligently updated the site, with the exception of the blog! New layout in honor of the upcoming Inuyasha anime, I’m quite pleased with it, but it took hooouurs to get it how I liked it. After that, I stepped into the murky realm of sub-domains and streamlined my TCG pages. I installed a script that took forever for me to figure out, when it turned out to be a stupid mistyped filepath. In the long run it will save a ton of time. I spent more time coding my tcg page than playing the games. Now with this script, I just load them into the folder and update the trading log. This has enabled me to join two more tcgs (Mystic and Moonlight Legend).

Also, Vivi has returned home from the Hawaii Animal Quarantine! She is adjusting well and Sophie really seems to like her. They make me so happy! I’m just sad that my vacation is over so I can’t spend as much time with my kitties anymore Well, supposedly, we have a hurricane on the way. Maybe I can spend time with them if they cancel work. Like that would ever happen with my luck! I’ve nearly been in 3 hurricanes, but they always miss. I want free time off you cowardly hurricanes! (though I do not want to actually experience one, just have the time off ) HURRICANE FELICIA, I CHALLENGE YOU!

No! Not Billy Mays, too! Yes, it’s true. World renowned Lord of OxiClean died on Sunday at age 50. Must be something in the water. Good thing I drink Pepsi. A moment of silence please. He really was a charismatic guy. He only sold stuff that actually worked, kind of like a seal of approval. I heard he was really nice to random strangers and fans, too. The world of infomercials won’t be the same. Sham Wow kid has some big shoes to fill…

In other news: I joined the Divinity TCG today! It’s all about collecting anime and manga bishounen! A fangirls dream! I’m excited! I’m starting with the Santoryu deck (Roronoa Zoro from One Piece). That guy is a true bad-ass. Go check it out, and if you join, tell ‘em Anne sent ya.

On the home front, 25 days until Vivi gets out of Hawaii Animal Quarantine!! Or as I like to call it, kitty jail… (see sidebar for countdown) Poor baby! Sophie (my new kitten) needs someone to keep her in line! The furniture and my legs are all scratched up and the squirt bottle doesn’t work as well as Vivi in attack mode
