Ten things I'm thankful for today:
-That it didn't rain when Cory had to ride his bike in to work this morning. That would have suuuucked!
-That my job interview seems to have gone well and that I didn't nervously laugh -too- much when I was given a bunch of questions I wasn't expecting. I prepared for the interview, but they didn't ask me any of the stuff I expected to answer. Thankfully, I didn't trip over myself too much.
-That it seems like we're going to have money again, really soon.
-That I was able to work on art for three hours today. It doesn't seem like much, but after the art block I've had, that's big!
-That Scrambles was so patient with me when she knew I wasn't understanding that she wanted me to put water in her bowl. I'm never responsible for that, but lately someone has been slacking (the bowl was bone dry). She came into my office and pestered me with big puppy eyes for over an hour before I realized she wasn't just being needy, she was thirsty. :( Poor adorable puppy! I'm so happy to have her back. Soon as we have access to a car I'm running out to PetCo and getting her a few new toys.
-That because I may get this job, I was able to take a little video game time and NOT feel guilty about it.
-Klok. It's project-tracking software I downloaded (free version works just fine for my tastes, though I'll probably upgrade when I get the cash) and it's saving my life. At a glance I can see how much work I've done today and on what projects, as well as can set a billing amount per hour so that I can see how much I would have made at that rate, and compare it to what I'm actually making. Really helpful! Highly recommend it.
-That the night before last, I actually outlined and scripted the big fight scene from the end of Redthread's first arc. I'm so proud of it, but I can't show more than a couple of people -- that part's a little frustrating!
-my wonderful commissioners.
-peanut butter and banana sandwiches for pre-job interview breakfast.
One nice thing I did for someone today:
This is always hard for me! It shouldn't be. I gotta work on that. Um... I didn't get mad when my interviewer was 18 minutes late. She apologized, I smiled. No big deal. It's not like I was stuck in an office or anything. It did make me worry a little, but no big.

Sugarhighstudios did gift art for me, of Raen from Redthread. <3 It was a wonderful start to a nervous morning just before my interview!

I'm guilty for not refilling the water bowl sometimes too..lol
and everyone downstairs is supposed to feed and water the dogs every day, but i keep catching the bowls empty. and i keep being scared to refill the food, at least, because i don't want the dogs eating twice as much (they totally will). the water thing is just something i failed to notice, but it made me upset :( poor poor puppy! they're jack russells, they're too small to drink out of the toilet! LOL
I don't have time to respond to every single comment I get, much as I'd like to. I normally just flit about and pick a few at random to respond to when I get the time. If I have time to answer all, I answer all. Leaving snarky, cryptic responses on a different journal because I haven't responded to a comment you left on an old one is rude and irrational. I'm sorry if it upset you, but it is nothing personal. There's no reason to act that way.
I hope you can forgive me. I swear there must be something wrong with me.
to answer your question, two games i can think of that are "stupid" and "small" that i have played and i don't think anyone else has are "coconut queen" and "tradewinds odyssey". :)
As long as you're having fun. I think the best game I ever played was Power Blade for NES.
What system are they for?
It's hard for me to find a genuinely fun game that is really well made.
