i hate being sick. i stayed home today to try and sleep it off and it just figures, Kyu tells me James showed up for game day (first time in a month) AND he brought Becky. i'm sure i missed all kinds of entertaining conversation today keeping my germs at home. *sigh*

i've made it through season three of Psych, then i hit a mood where i just had to stop. i was enjoying it, but i knew if i wanted to keep enjoying it i needed a break, so i restarted my spare DQ9 cart. it's been interesting trying to figure out how much i can still do since a bulk of the post game was unlocked via wifi and Nintendo dropped support of that entirely last month. i've heard i can unlock the stuff by tagging my more complete cart via local wireless, which means i could probably pass Bonnie my good dungeon maps the same way. we talked about getting together to play months ago and it just hasn't happened yet. i suppose the first step is figuring out just how much of the co-op can be played via local wireless and not Nintendo wifi.

really (aside from the being sick thing) i'm feeling restless, like i wanna be CREATING something, but there's no space or material, or time since the cleaning thing is priority. really though i just wanna paint, and i wanna sew, and i wanna try my hand at recreating some of my favorite DQ equipment at doll-scale (even if i haven't 100% decided which scale). my initial idea was the slightly smaller than 45cm doll line i wanna (eventually) get the three characters i haven't-been-writing for the last 6 years in: Iplehouse's KID line (35cm tall). it's kinda a niche size, but the gender discrepancy would be negligible so most anything i made could be worn by either gender. if i go with that choice it'll be quite some time before i can follow through since i don't own anyone that scale. my other idea is crafting for my MH/EAH dolls. i have plenty of models already, and plans to get more once i can afford them. i know it's a fanbase that likes custom content, the downside here is that there's a DEFINITE difference in body types and i don't own all the options i'd wanna cover. MH has three female bodies and a male, EAH has three lady heights, the torso and arms on all are the same (the difference is entirely in the legs) and their male body is markedly different than the monster counterpart. i suppose choosing either way has to wait anyway, until i can afford materials to work with, much less more models to show off the items.
