Some more achievements!
Because today started out pretty shitty, so good thing it ended up well. Counting some stuff from the weekend.
Achievements
- I have gone through all the papers in my filing cabinet and what was piled under my desk and taken a bunch to be shredded and sorted what was left in my hanging folder container thing. So, no more bunches of unnecessary papers. Much of it was old stuff from before I could get paperless statements on a lot of things (yes, there was a time) and some of it was paperwork that I wasn't sure if I should get rid of it (answer: yes I could). But now it's out of my life and on its way to be recycled. Yay!
- I started an order for frames for some of my favorite art pieces. This, this, this, and this if you're curious. I have tall ceilings at my new place and the walls are going to be COVERED. So excite. Will take them a couple weeks to be made, so I'm a little antsy.
- I am covering tech support at work while one of my coworkers is out due to family emergency, and I managed not to strangle anyone. XD Granted, I complained a lot. I hate doing tech support.
- I am so close to being done with my sister's dress. I just need to actually sit down and put that zipper on!
- SNAKE VS. TANK. So far the easiest boss fight once I figured out the trick. Mixed up mythologies confuse me though, since I know a lot about them. As does some pseudoscience, so I can live with it.
- I have improved about 400% as far as sneaking goes. I still make stupid mistakes sometimes, but it takes me two or three tries per area now instead of like a dozen. Except for that damn rocket launcher bit. But that wasn't sneaking that was just me not having the best of reflexes. Oh well.
- DEEPTHROAT. Snake is so confused and not impressed. I am highly amused. I like Snake best when he's confused, I think.
- Can't wait to meet more baddies. I stopped before what I thought would be a boss fight, because I wasn't ready for a boss fight quite yet. XD

no subject
The way stealth works in Assassin's Creed sits much better with me. Probably because there's more of a mixture of elements--very rarely is there not more than one way to do things, and there's always a plethora of ways to get out of trouble if you can think quickly under pressure. The AI is also way more realistic and less video-gamey, if that makes any sense.
