Ahh, figures.

(I typed this calmly, but I'm raging inside, and really want to add twelve exclamation marks and some random numbers to the end of that.)

It has been um *looks up a side* 290 days or somewhere thereabouts! I wish I had an exciting story to tell but it's basically job/move/BF/GREYHOUNDS!!/etc and virtual worlds faded to the background! Then I bought Pokemon Black and was reminded of how much I like taking care of pixel creatures and then I logged back onto neo. Yes... did I miss any other interesting developments? I shall go browse neocolours and find out!

Thank you for the av and sig set!

I just got warned AGAIN. xD I used 'fml' in a post without thinking about it - tadaa, warning appears! I need to start reading over everything I type. Blah. Why can't they just filter it instead of sending me a warning? :|

Cranberry -- Congratulations! What an amazing achievement!

In other news, my new word for the day is FML.

Lark, yay!

I was very happy when I came across these eyedrops when sorting out the eyedrop drawer in the pharmacy I worked at last summer (because you have to take what you can get when it comes to date-checking):

Yes, they are FML eye drops. For when life gives you one in the eye.

After days and days and days over years of trying I have finally, FINALLY achieved the coveted Buried Treasure avatar. I seriously can't believe it!

However, today's LC was all mathematics and geometry. As an engineering student who has a mathematician for a partner, we spent 10 minutes working on the problem together and came to an answer that is hopefully correct.

But, shit, I just now realised that I submitted the answer in cubic metres rather than in litres. So all that work was wasted :(

D'oh! Could your partner sign up for Neopets? Just to enter the LC?

Those geometric LC questions completely baffle me. I have no idea what a regular triacontakaihenagon (or an irregular one, for that matter) even looks like!

I made a new account, bought a codestone off someone in the trading post and they sent me 2 baby paintbrushes saying they were quitting :) Sold them both and got a mutant kau. Pretty badass.

Got to level 50 in Habitarium.

This is a seriously nice, easy way to make money. Not that I was hurting for NPs, but it's still nice to be making it with so little effort.

Just be careful not to get glitched! I've been locked out for about a month, now :( (Check out the habitarium forums, I think there are a few threads that mention what glitches there are...I was got because I refreshed the screen whilst there were a lot of purple gems on it)

Well it took a whole 3 days, but I got the two pets I wanted (mutant Kau and mutant Koi) and a trophy for Hannah and the Pirate Caves. I know, slacking or what?

Trophy haul!

And mild bitching! I submitted a score in The Return of the Return of Dr. Sloth that was eventually bumped down to silver (unacceptable - I was shooting for top of the list). Resubmitted with a score that would have put me in second place overall...except the score was sent for review and my original score was taken down. I'm still waiting on it to post, irately, as it's still the second best score this month. I'm still gunning for that top spot (it's going to happen), I'm just miffed that I was gypped out of an improved trophy.

I also was trying for the Slots Big Losers trophy to no avail. There's always next month I suppose.

(Should a thread be made specifically for monthly trophies/avatars?)
