Oct. 15th, 2012 04:36 amYesterday, while I was eating dinner, Mom and Dad were flipping through the channels, and came across the movie adaptation of Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs, which was just beginning on Cartoon Network. We decided to watch it the whole way through, since we remember the original storybook was one of the most notable bedtime stories that Dad used to read to us when me, Brian, and Marie were all little.

Slept on the futon this past night. Earlier yesterday, Mom suggested that we wash my bedsheets and dry them out on the line. Later on, she told me they were in the dryer, and I assumed that to imply that they've already been dried. I was tired from wiping down the storm windows, and didn't feel like making my bed up at the moment, so I figured I'd retrieve them later.
As it turns out after Mom and Dad had already gone to bed, they were still damp. I set them to dry, and brought one of my blankets to the futon.
In any case, it's been considerably warmer there, what with the fire still going on in the living room. It's only 4:14 AM right now, earlier than even Mom wakes up to get ready for work, and I haven't felt the urge to sleep in. Maybe I'll continue just sleeping there, while still doing other stuff in my room. Nice alternative to bringing the heater up, since that uses electricity.

Nevermind Mega Man or Kanji in Context right now. I've gotten my muse back to think about the Lucky Star fic for the first time in almost a year. That fic being a potential homage to the Earthbound trilogy, I think I'll start a new game with Earthbound Zero starting today.
So far, I made major revisions and updates to the fic outline, shared a copy with Jake and Chelle, updated it further, and discussed the possilibility with nanashi-no about her making a spritesheet for me (though she did say that she'd have to try making a sprite or some with an OC of her's to see if she's capable of such). It also helps that I recently found out that amethyst used to be one of the cardinal gemstones, along with ruby, sapphire, emerald, and diamond; finding such a thing out has helped me decide to have the first secondary party member meet the four main girls not far away from home, along with helping me decide where the rest of the first chapter goes.
That said, I'll be ready to write it after discussing it with Chelle, in order to tie up loose ends and make sure the potential chapter doesn't rip off Earthbound and EB0 too much. That, however, can wait until she's finished what I've asked for less than a month ago, as can everything else I need to bring up with her, and I'm not likely going to actually post it until I have the spritesheet (so as to promote the fic itself and get people to brainstorm ideas) and complete the entire trilogy (so as to have some fanfare to end it on).
(In retrospect, it was likely a mistake to have contacted Chelle on MSN just to share the initial revision of the outline, especially since I wasn't done revising it even yet. Would like to distract her as little as possible, but what can I say? I was feeling hyped up.)
