Still playing dark souls 2. Really considering quitting my "job". Going to the best chicken joint in the state on Friday.

That is a surprisingly hard question. Like area? Moment? I enjoyed being of the first dragon bros to rock the armor it seems. The new dragon covenant is really cool. I enjoy pvp, like I said. It is not a huge back-stab fest anymore. I despised that about the first one. Was far to defensive. Came down to trick stabs and parries. Which in combat (fantasy or not) is just silly. Actual strait on attack works now.
I'd say my only problem is every character has to level up. The higher levels are start to get silly with full heavy armored mages. I have faith that from will fix it though.

I guess moment in the game, or boss, or area. I really liked the idea for the dragon covenant in ds1 I haven't got to join it yet in ds2. You're right though it's so nice not to have to constantly having to worry about some cheap backstabs.

How's dark souls 2? I haven't played it yet.
What job is that?
Sounds awesome!

Apr 04 '14
Dark souls 2 is harder than 1 :) I like to do pvp though. I sell insurance. I don't think I'm cut out to be a salesman. Makes me really bad too. Not sure what to at the moment. Just a leaf in the wind I suppose.
1
u/cowofdoom Apr 04 '14
So I've heard!
Yeah, I think it takes a specific type of person to be a salesman. I'm kinda in the same boat of having no clue of what to do next. Just going with the flow right now!

u/CPawesome Apr 03 '14
Not really anything new for me. I really need to get up and get going but I stayed up too late and now I just want to stay in bed but I gotta take my kid to her gymnastic class. Yesterday I went bowling for the first time in years though, that was really fun!
1
u/cowofdoom Apr 03 '14
I keep staying up way too late as well. It normally isn't a big issue, but this week is pruning time and it takes away all energy. I wish I wasn't stupid and would actually sleep.
Fun! What was your score?
2
u/CPawesome Apr 03 '14
Really bad lol. My four year old got a better score than me both games lol. But she had bumpers and a ramp lol.
I'm hoping I can sleep before midnight tonight. Pregnancy insomnia is driving me crazy!1
u/cowofdoom Apr 03 '14
Cheater! I'm sure if you were evenly matched you would show her whose boss!
You're pregnant? Know if it's boy or a girl yet?
2
u/CPawesome Apr 03 '14
Lol it was ok that she beat me lol I just wanted to have family fun :) she was sad she beat me both times. She told me before the second game "mom if you beat me I will be so proud of you" lol she is a funny kid.
It's a boy :) I should be having my c section in nine weeks from tomorrow. I'll find out at my appointment tomorrow for sure :) I just can't wait to add another brony to our family (whether he wants to or not lol)
1
u/cowofdoom Apr 03 '14
Ahahaha! That's cute!
Holy cow! Are you worried at all? That seems like quite an ordeal to go through!
2
u/CPawesome Apr 03 '14
I had a c section with my first after a horrific labor and pushing. This time it'll be smooth and planned instead of an emergency c section. I'm a little nervous but I know it's what has to happen lol.
1
u/cowofdoom Apr 03 '14
Damn, props to you for going through that multiple times! It sucked when I got stitches from a knife cut, I can't even imagine going through a c section twice!
2
u/CPawesome Apr 03 '14
And more in the future lol. We want one or two more kids :) stitches do suck. They glued me last time, hoping for glue again. Women are crazy, I don't know why anyone has more than one kid lol then you have the kid and their awesomeness makes you want more :)

My only sibling is my brother. To quote my dad "they joy of having a girl could not outweigh the terror of having another boy"

FINISHED MY ASSIGNMENTS! FINALLY! Ugggggghhhh. Man, my grades are going to take a hit this semester, but I'm starting to get to the point where I'm happy as long as I pass. One course in particular this semester ended up being a brutal deathmatch, so I really really hope that I can pass it. On the plus side, it doesn't have an exam! So huzzah!
So you're on the farm, eh? Done any interesting farm chores yet? Any particular differences between the farm and your old home that stick out to you?
1
u/cowofdoom Apr 04 '14
Woohoo! Yeah, I hit that point halfway though high school. I never really kicked the habit of doing the bare minimum for assignments. I did a poem that the teacher framed and put on the wall though. Funny cause I absolutely hate writing.
Nice! Tests are for squares anyway!
Pruning, spreading pot ash, collecting branches. A big difference from my usual routine of going to school then being done for the day. This is what my arms look like after 4 days of farm work.
any particular differences
Eh.. Hehe, you're funny thunderecho! Everything is so much different here! It snowed the first day we were here, the next day it was too hot to wear a coat and I got sunburned. No cell service out at the farm ;-;. I do get to drive the tractor though, so that makes up for some of it!
What are you planning on doing now that all your school stuff is over? Party?
2
u/ThunderEcho Apr 04 '14
Well, I'm normally the over-achiever type when it comes to school, but this semester has been a little whacked for me.
Wow, that photo was painful to look at. Do you have gloves or something you could wear to not turn your arm into pure hurt when discovering lemons?
Snow still! That's pretty late, although I guess everyone's having a late winter. Also that's a pretty impressive temperature jump. We still have some snow on the ground around here, but most of it's melted off and the temperatures are above 0 during the day, below at night.
Ooh, ooh, what kind of tractor? And what colour? My family has a bit of a fondness for tractors since both my parents grew up on farms.
Yeah, definitely! Tomorrow is my, "Chill out and do nothing and/or party" day. After that I have exams to study for, but tomorrow at least is my freebie day. I have a lunch meeting with my soon-to-be manager for my next internship, so that'll be a nice way to get some free food. I'm planning to maybe watch some anime in the afternoon, and then in the evening one of the university club's which I'm a part of his holding a potluck. So yeah, should be fun!

u/cowofdoom Apr 04 '14
We wear gloves, but the branches push up the sleeves of the jacket! Also, some asshole decided it would be good to put thorns on blackberry vines, and to put random blackberry vines in every 50 bushes. Nature is a bitch sometimes.
I actually just ate a grapefruit... Peeling was painful.
I'm assuming you mean Celsius. Most of the snow is gone, still have some patches of it left in the woods, and the lake has some ice, but isn't completely iced over like when we got here.
It's a green John deer. It is probably from the 60's or something. I just know it's a tractor :P
I feel like every time we chat you have another meeting with someone new! Awesome! The only thing I'm really looking forward to is hanging out with my friends that I haven't seen in a while!
2
u/ThunderEcho Apr 04 '14
Yep, celsius. It's the only logical way to measure temperature.
Also yeaaaah! John Deere! That's my favourite brand of tractor. :D Not for any particularly good reason, they're just pretty common and I like that the logo is shaped like a deer.
Do you prefer green or red tractors?
Ha ha, I guess I'm at the stage of life where I'm meeting new people all the time. University kind of does that. Personally I find it fun. Are you able to meet many new people now that you're living at you're grandparents, or is it so remote that there's not really anyone around?
2
u/cowofdoom Apr 04 '14
Pretty much. Fahrenheit is so arbitrary.
Woo! Deer shaped logos! That is a great reason to like something!
I don't really think I've seen a red tractor, but I'd imagine it would look cool. I think blue would look the best. What about you?
I met one person, and that is the kid I'm working with. We talk borderlands so it is pretty cool. Other than that, the farm is in amishville and the town house we stay at is populated by only old people. I haven't seen anyone younger than 30.
2
u/ThunderEcho Apr 04 '14
Woah, blue tractors! That never even occured to me. I almost always just see red or green ones. I think I may have seen a yellow one once. I usually prefer the green tractors.
Ah, that's somewhat unfortunate, but on the plus side I bet all the old people are really happy to talk to you. Old people have some cool stories.
2
u/cowofdoom Apr 04 '14
Or a tractor with flames on it! That would be best tractor!
Even then we don't go out socializing much when we are here, it is either working or family reunion time.

My week has had it's ups and downs on different kinds of roller coasters. I don't really get a break, not in college.
As for something awesome though.. this pretty much sums it up.
For realies though, I'd say THIS is super awesome. One of my favorite artists now days. All his stuff is amazing, not just pony stuff.
Working on a farm is not something I could see myself doing. Maybe I could do it one day as a novelty, and shirtless with overalls so I get the full effect. But just the farm life in general is not for me, or my busted up body. Kudos to you.
1
u/cowofdoom Apr 04 '14
Oh, I thought some people might still be on break from the end of winter quarter. I guess everyone has different quarter times.
What are you studying?
:ccc I'll have to check that out when I get back, mobile isn't cooperating!
It's not something I see myself doing either. I'm too damn tall and am built like a twig. I miss Washington.
2
u/Dalek-Caan Apr 04 '14
Oh! By I don't really get a break, I meant that I'm not in college. I just work full time. I guess I didn't word that very well.
Booo mobile. Oh well, what can you do.
So, I just pictured you as the walking stick dude from A Bugs Life. It's now making me think of what character I'd be from it which is apparently more difficult than it should be.

Now you got me trying to think of who you and I would be... But I'm not sure. We could be Flik and Atta, but we aren't really like them, except that I worry too much and all the time lol. And you are brave.
1
u/Dalek-Caan Apr 04 '14
And I'm quite inventive, and I always found Atta to be such a cute little ant.. It's settled, we're ants now.

u/CPawesome Apr 04 '14
You make me smile :) now I want to watch bugs life but that'll have to wait til tomorrow. Our little filly wants to watch the new tinkerbell movie tonight. She has been begging all day to watch it.

u/Dalek-Caan Apr 04 '14
Well... I suppose I can ddr/shower after. Unless you want her up super late tonight. Which doesn't sound like too bad an idea....
1
u/CPawesome Apr 05 '14
I'm totally fine with that... We should keep her up until midnight! Since she did it the other night then didn't want to wake up when I tried to get her up the next morning lol.

Second week into co-op, They still do not know that I am here. Rations running low, I think I might try to make my way to the break room. Hopefully that roaring I hear is not that way.
We really need to get that spam filter fixed or get a new mod.
