Does anyone remember The Time Warp of Dr. Brain, a computer game made by Sierra?

I've been thinking about that game lately for some reason. XD I still remember a lotta the things Dr. Brain would whine at me and I had tons of fun playing Primordial Soup, Spelunking, Lizards and Eggs and Beaver Dam. (I keep hearing the baby lizards shouting "YAHOOOOOOOO~" when they hatch. That, and the beaver's scream when he's carried downstream = Priceless) Spelunking helped contribute to my fear of drowning in video games. XDDDD! The game was also how I heard of Alchemy before science class and FMA! *_____________________*

I never did beat the game and helped Dr. Brain home, haha. XDDD!

Welcome to the Emerald City! Where's my rainbow horse carriage?

( I deserve a little more respect than that. )

Oh god. I forgotten how spectacularly hardcore The Secret of NIMH is. Or how pretty Mrs. F/B risby is and her red shawl and red shiny. Or how gorgeous the animation is. That there was blood, folks getting struck, flinging of knives, and "damn!" uttered in a G movie. (Hollywood, you're a bunch of pansies today)

It doesn't help I have a crush on Justin either.

And yes, I read the book! XDDDDD Justin dies in it. *BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW* ;____________________;

Puri angsted over the lack of pr0n she has, so she waddled over to YouTube to giggle at Sonic Sez videos. Some of these are priceless! XD

Don't Be a Fool! Smoking Isn't Cool! (Smoking) I always giggle when Grounder says "TRYYYYYYYY IT". Must be the way he says it.
Liquor is for Dumbots! (Alcohol) Yes, Scratch actually says "booze" on public kids' television. We weren't so strict back then! ;D
Cowboy Sonic uses a gun! (Guns) "I don't want any of my pals getting hurt by a deadly weapon that's not a toy!" HE WAS TOTALLY TALKING ABOUT HIS BOYFRIEND SHADOW
Robotnik Jr. fights for his friends! (Peer Pressure) Oh god Robotnik Jr. sounds exactly like Silver! XD I have to watch an episode with him later.
Don't talk to strangers! (Strangers) I remember this one from the VHS tapes I used to have! XD I ought to make a base icon with Grounder wearing the fake glasses later, hehe. Edit: Done! ;D
Sonic supports us writing fanfiction! :D (Illiteracy) Sonic's so cute. :) I have to wonder though, he has the attention span to read? :o Comic books maybe, hehe. XD Or PlayHog... for the articles. Shadow is good, but the articles!

I want an animated icon of Pilot*Robotnik screaming "NO!" at Scratch and Grounder now. XD

Never drawing with Touchpad again. Ow ow ow.

Puri got a Tegaki! Nomnomnom.

Based off this.

I love Retro*Sally's ponytail. Too bad she didn't keep it. XD

That's right. Thiiiiiiiiiiiiis early in Super Mario RPG. ;D

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KNUCKLES~ ♥♥♥

Don't get tricked by pesky black hedgehogs today!

I can't believe I just wrote a snippet for old chaptered Sonadow fic I've been working on for years.

I have a strong urge to replay the Sonic Genesis games.

HELP ME GOD DON'T TAKE ME BACK TO THE DARK SIDE.

My computer's getting surgery. *cackle*

In other words, dream time! ( Of Stalkers, People/Characters I Did NOT Want to See in My Dreams, and Look! It's Mother 3! (No Spoilers) )

( HELO THAR PIPPI AND GRIFF )

( Two Movies of War of the Worlds With Fog, Floods, Zombies/Possessed Folk, And Super Smash Bros! )

Huh. Reminds me of that other beach one, with these huge sand/mirage islands and monuments. And the gigantic waves hiding kraken/leviathan/those freaky eels from The Princess Bride/sea serpents with long needle-sharp teeth anyway. Either way, they had teenie fins and were a light marine-blue and camouflaged with the sea. :o

But you know what's really awesome? I had a dream Sonadow became canon~ ♥

( Done To Horrible Boy Band Music, But Still! Stick Around For Nummy Desert Palace Escapades! )

Heart of a Dog refuses to play on DVD at my dorm. Fuck.

To Watch

1. Jim Henson/Frank Oz's "The Dark Crystal" (Due Friday for Movie Rental Store) (DONE! More on that in a bit)
2. The first several episodes of Azumanga Daioh (Due Friday for Movie Rental Store)
3. "We Called Him Robert" for Russian Sci-Fi class (Russian DVD/No subtitles) (Give back to teacher Thursday)
4. "The Great Mouse Detective" (6:00 showing at Union Theater) (6/10 aka Tomorrow) (I haven't seen this in years! AND IT'S FOR FREE T-T)
5. "Ratatouille" (6:00 showing at Union Theater) (6/11 aka Day after Tomorrow) (BECAUSE IT'S WORTHY OF A SECOND VIEWING)

I also wanna see "Across the Universe" (FUCK YEAH SEAKING BEATLES--MOULIN ROUGE STYLE *still hasn't seen Moulin Rouge despite knowing the music by heart*), except it's only opened at TWO measley theaters, and I have no idea where the fuck they are. That, or they're probably beyond the other side of town and I refuse to suffer heat stroke walking that far under the blazing heat. Hell, I don't even care if I don't see it right away. Pfft. :P So it's not as important as the movies listed above right now.

To Do

1. Finish reading the remaining half of Zamyatin's We and begin Bulgakov's The Fatal Eggs for Russian Sci-Fi. (Dammit, why am I such a slow reader? Especially considering We's paperthin and I like the book. oO;;;)
2. Write a reaction paper for Russian Sci-Fi. (Due Thursday) (Except I want to finish We first. Fuck! But he wants my thoughts on my readings, so this shouldn't be hard...)
3. Return DVDs to video store so I don't get fined.
4. Don't miss Great Mouse Detective tomorrow night.
5. Shower and fold clean clothes. And of course, there's laundry issues and ARG.
6. Make sure I don't die from stress. Again.

Other Stuff

1. Brainstorm and start working on everybody's PR0NTOBER requests. (Two spaces left. Jeshi, do you want me to hold one for you?)
2. Poke around with original designs for my First Published Novel.
3. Play Oregon Trail and giggle as the Chosen 4 die from causes like cholera and broken arms, but Everdred and Mr. Saturn survive to raft down the Columbia River together. XD

Okay, I lied. XD Well, kinda. I'm always pathetic when it comes to talking about movies, because my first impressions always seem short-sighted. But when I saw The Dark Crystal, I left the DVD room thinking, "...WHOA. *__________________*" Gorgeous film, brilliant design, just... wow. This is why I fangirl fantasy. *____________________* Gets really spooky though (*sigh* 19 and I'm still a wuss), so it was a good thing I had my Yoshi plushie with me so I could squeeze him when I got nervous. I'm utterly mesmerized by the art and designs, so I'll have to look up Froud's work later. :o

Fizgig reminds me of my doggie Amanda. Only she WISHES she could look this ferocious. I miss her already. XD
