@_@ I just spent like...two hours or so? Going through entries, from 2005 and changing the privacy level. Apparently, I have a bunch of entries that were part of a now-defunct friend group that had all gone private. The "Mass Privacy Editing" Tool failed utterly. It only allows you to change entries from Public, Friends and Private to Public, Friends and Private. Even though the entries that had once belonged to a custom-made friends group (which was deleted probably a year or more ago) were now private, it was still counted as being part of a custom friend group. So the mass edit didn't work. ><
But it was kind of fun having a skim through all my old entries. I was on crack. O_O
I sent an e-mail to Jirou-chan about a little entry that I'd just labelled "Idea." I ... don't even remember what it was for. But if you think about it, it makes sense?
I also updated a few tags, deleted a few icons that I don't use, etc. I'm debating whether or not I should go through and relabel my icons...but...eh. I think they're fine for now. xD
It's 2:36 a.m. and I'm not that sleepy yet! Yet. I had an energy drink (Monster M-80?) for most of yesterday morning, so I'm like...awake. Mostly. Gary's trying to pull an all-nighter thing, but went to take a nap. I'm supposed to either wake him in an hour or whenever I go to bed. Whatever comes first. xD
I told Matt earlier that I'd be willing to try out WoW (you guys know what this stands for, right?)...and asked if he'd plvl me. xD He said he would and said that he was excited about playing with me again. He said he owed me for all the stuff I did for him in Fiesta, so he'd give me a bunch of gold and gear and whatnot. But, of course, he said I'd have to play on EU servers, since he doesn't have any chars on US servers. I asked if they IP blocked players from other countries, and apparently they don't. But we'll see what happens!
Of course I won't even think of trying to play until after I get a new laptop, which should be after I get my tax refund. So...maybe in a month or two.
New electronics make me happy.

I'm watching Discovery Channel right now. About a half hour ago, I was watching, "A Haunting." It's a show where they talk about hauntings that people have experienced. Supposedly they're true stories, but...eh! I dunno if they all are. It's still interesting, though.
Anyway, now they're showing another show called, "FBI Files." For about five minutes, I thought I was still watching "A Haunting" because they used the same narrator for this show. Yay for being confused! XD
We went to Tezuka-buchou's house on Tuesday for her birthday. Her mom had made food for us (poke, chicken, croquette, salad) and helped us make some okonomiyaki. It was fun, but didn't turn out so well. XD It fell apart, but it was still pretty good! ^^ I got full on that and croquette, so I didn't really get to eat anything else. @_@ Jirou-chan tried some of the poke (one piece). She doesn't like fish, so while chewing it, she had this horrible face. XD
The next day, we were mostly at home. We left the house in the afternoon with Tezuka, and went to get some Starbucks. Supposedly, the Starbucks in the Hilo Borders is going to close, so we dropped in to see if it was still open.
It was still there, so we got some drinks. Jirou and I got this new chocolate banana smoothie. It was all right... The chocolate overpowered the banana, and the only time you could taste it was when you burped. XD The chocolate itself tasted like...some dark powdered chocolate thing.
While sitting in the cafe area, I looked over at the magazines. There was one magazine that I kept glancing at. The cover seemed vaguely familiar to me somehow, and when I went over to investigate it, it was Yen Plus. The cover that I'd kept glancing at was Soul Eater's upside-down logo. Usually I'm able to read upside down, so I don't know what was wrong with me that day.
But yeah, Yen Plus is a new manga anthology put out by Yen Press. It's an anthology that you read from both ends. Half of it is Japanese manga that you read from right to left, the other half is English/Korean manga that you read from left to right. The Japanese manga they featured are actually mostly stories that I'm familiar with. Soul Eater, Higurashi When They Cry and Bamboo Blade. I'd never heard of Nobari no Ou, and another one called Sumomo Momomo.
On the English/Korean side, there's a series called Maximum Ride that seems like it'd be interesting...although it also seems like a webcomic. (People with angel-like wings fighting against "Erasers" who look like werewolves...and the leader is the son of the man who used to take care of them.) Jack Frost seems kind of dark...in the first chapter, the main character gets decapitated and watches as a superhuman classmate fights a superhuman guidance counselor from another school. >.>;; Pig Bride is pretty, but I kind of want the main character to end up with the (female) body guard of the pig bride, rather than grow to like the pig bride herself... XD And One Fine Day? It's just super adorable.
...I could probably go into more detail about each, but...I don't feel like it right now. D:
I managed to finish watching the first disc of Arashi's Time concert DVD. It was awesome. XD Their costumes range between being cool and borderline flamboyant. XD It looked like a lot of fun, though! Flashy lights, jets of flame shooting up from the edge of the stage, explosions...yes. JE really does know how to put on a concert. ^^
Then I hopped onto my Fiesta char and managed to finish one of my quests. It's so bad. >< As a cleric, I don't have a lot of strength. I had to collect 30 stolen blades, 50 scabbards and kill 100 Heart Trumpys. I finished killing the 100 Heart Trumpys before I got all the stolen blades and scabbards. It took me...at least two hours. >< People (mostly mages) kept showing up and inviting me to their party. =.= I rejected them, because I died a couple times earlier and wanted to get used to fighting and soloing as a cleric in Fiesta.
And each time I died? I lost about 133k worth of experience points. I need over 13 million experience points to level up, and each monster I killed in that area gave me just 1k. =.= So I was in a pretty bad mood and didn't feel like helping out strangers or being used by them.
I finished the quest though. It bumped me up only by 6% though...I was at 38% after I handed in the quest. I wanted to end on 40%, so I grinded out the final 2% for about an hour more.
I talked to Matt this morning for a bit. Like at 1 a.m. or so. Other than that though, I haven't seen him around today. Which makes me sad, but oh well... I'll be able to talk to him again soon, I'm sure. ^^ I'm a big girl, so I should be able to get along fine by myself. XD
For a little while, anyway. ^^
Oh well. Dinnertime~

LJ must really hate me. This is the third time I'm writing this entry. XD WTF, LJ!
Anyway, I spent Valentine's Day in-game with Matt. He got me a quest item that was a little difficult to locate at the time. It was so I could get a little crown for my character to wear. He wanted me to have it so that he could call my "Princess." When I pointed out that there were a lot of other girls with the crown on, he said, "Yes, but you're my Princess."
Which was a really cute thing for him to say. ^_^
Later, we were dancing in Roumen, one of the towns in-game. He shouted, "I love you, Solynne! Happy Valentine's Day, baby!"
He also asked me to listen to Essex FM. It took a while before what he wanted me to hear was played. He'd called in to the radio station and asked them to play "(Everything I Do) I Do It For You" for me. When the DJ asked him how his Valentine's night was going, he replied, "Boring." XD But he quickly explained that it was because I'm so far away and he doesn't get to see me.
The DJ seemed sympathetic and said, "Well, I guess this is the next best thing then, huh?"
I loved that he chose that song. <3 It was really sweet and fit in with the mood of the day. X3
I've been helping him with his quests in game, and with leveling his orc license. While taking a break in one of the towns, the current guild master of Genocide saw us and said hi.
"I always see you two together. Is there something special there?" he asked.
I was like, "Ummm...we're married."
"What? You got married and didn't invite me?!"
"We got married in December. XD"
"Oh. nvm. ^^"
I just thought that was amusing... I sometimes forget that not everyone knows us and about us. XD
