Toil and Trouble.

Hey there, I know it's been a really long time, and I know I've not really been keeping my word to post here often, but in between stuff, I just don't have a whole lot of time; I'm lucky to spend and hour or two writing with Leigh or punching people in GetAmped 2 at all - speaking of which, I got an absolutely lovely skin of Skullgirls Double which is really neat; I confess Leigh wears it far better than I do - when she uses Chaos Heretic, her Nun's Habit merges seamlessly with the black hell-puddle it makes on the floor.

Really neat - if had some super grimdark accessories to go with it, I'd totally dish them out.
Unfortunately, there's none that particularly draw my attention; Black Rain might have been cool, I guess.
Cursed Cross is really neat, but I have it in -such- an ugly color. Its inherit is still pretty nifty.
I don't know - I'll think of something splendid for it, I'm certain.

Speaking further of GetAmped 2, I logged in today at 5:00 to find my room had been messied-up a bit, and the cherry on the sundae? A great big love-letter tacked to my wall.
You have no idea how good that gets you in the heart. Makes you feel delightful...

I've been stressing out over work. We've been getting these heft evaluation tests - if you fail one, you risk being classed-back, which typically comes with zero mercy - they simply spit you back to the very beginning and make you start IS-A all over again. It's getting into some very nitty-gritty stuff, and I'm being forced to go in after hours if I even want to come close to maintaining my 92% rating.

The Rating doesn't mean anything, which is just the opposite you would expect.
A Positive Eval is exclusively for the purpose of seeing if you're remotely worth giving a reasonable deployment to: if I don't want to be at sea for a couple months, a 92% mandatory...

But I'm being forced to learn the make-up of entire country's armies and it's just... Absolutely dreadful.
From Surface to Air platforms to fittings on planes, and how to identify them solely upon looks.
It's very, very stressful, to say the least...

I try and make it by through playing favorites; something I do everywhere.

My favorite Surface-to-Air Missile Platform?


Might I introduce you to the SA-5 Gammon.

It just looks very Powerpuff Girls. Like one of those Supervillain Weapons. 
I don't know. I need to quit stalling and get back to work.

For the record, I can't tell you anything about the Gammon, nor anything about other platforms.
I can't really tell you a thing about my job, save that I'm very, very busy right now and that the material is very densely packed.

I hope you're all doing well, and Leigh, if you're reading this, I love you immensely.
