Nyom~

Just random updating-ness.. Let's see.. I'm alive! There's a good start! Lol.

Finally got an OB-GYN.. Yeah, waited a while, eh? 'xD I'm about 32 1/2 weeks now (of 40, for those who don't know). Not much longer!

As for names, the epic battle! We THOUGHT we'd found one. We were gonna call her Ember Pandora. .. xD Yes, we were prepared for the hatred later in her life. ROFLMAO. For several days we talked about it, kept asking if the other REALLY wanted it, kept confirming and reconfirming that that was it... Then a few days after we stopped Thom out of the blue goes "Meh, what could we use instead of Pandora?" xD

So yeah. NOW we think we have another. Ember Riely? .. Maybe Ember Ryeli/Ryli/Rylie? He doesn't like the normal spelling, and given how much I love the name even though it's so ungodly common as a baby name the last few years (generally a major turn-off to me), I'm all for making it more unique. But I dunno how we're gonna if we go with that. '^^ Anyone feel free to submit your thoughts on which spelling looks best, including if you thought of any I didn't. :3

For the record, we're generally gonna call her "Emi", so her odd name won't be quite as obvious unless she wants it to be. ;3

Hm.. Not too much else.. Home life is still fail, my mom's still a selfish whore.. Been house/apt-searching lately. There was one house we found that was fricking amazing, but when we drove by there wasn't a sign (which could mean as little as they're only advertising online of course, but.. '^^) and people were there, so yeah.. No one wanted to go knock on some weird peoples' door and bother them if the ad was wrong.. Heh.. And the ad didn't have a number for some stupid reason.. >< So beh. As it stands, looks like we're getting an apt at a complex nearby pretty soon. I've heard nothing good about them, but they're large spaces that are at least acceptably maintained (;-;' I've had an apt that wasn't.. *shudder* It was scary living there..) for very low rent, so yeah..

The status stuff at the bottom reminded me, so I guess I may as well include this. ^^ Untold Legends: Dark Kingdom. Play it. My hubby and I went to GameStop last weekend, and were thinking about getting Civ: Revolution. But it was more than we thought, so we decided to look around a bit. And I asked the guy at the desk about a good co-op game that WASN'T a shooter, preferably action-adventure and/or RPG-ish, fantasy-ish would be nice if they had it. He seemed really skeptic, kept asking about maybe this element or that gameplay, and finally said almost disappointed-sounding, "Really, I think Untold Legends is going to be about the ONLY game that fits what you're looking for.." and handed me the case.

It is EXACTLY what I was looking for! The only things I could ask for would be: (1) more char customization, of course; things like skin/hair/eyes/face/etc, or especially being able to pick both class and gender, but that's really no big deal at all (my fave class so far is the female char anyway xD); (2) more classes/characters to choose from, naturally, but the three it has are fine, and there's a reason for the way it's set up now; and (3) overworld rather than levels. That's just a personal preference, though, and levels do have the advantage of no long travel time. ^^ So that's fine. Consumable items would be cool too- add a bit more RPG feel and all- but the system they've got is pretty cool. :3

So far it's great though! ^^ My hubby and I have been playing co-op on Easy ('x3; It was our first file, lol), and then I started a solo this morning on Hard. xD Kind of wishing I'd gone Normal actually, lol. But only because I'm greedy and want to save my "money" for cool stuff rather than spending it on healing, lol. Haven't died yet or anything.

:3 Seriously though. If anyone like fantasy, action-adventure, and/or RPG-ish games, ESPECIALLY if you're looking for a nice co-op, I highly recommend you try this! ^^
