Theme song for the month https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wrSOCXSOQ2w
#reasons

Recurring theme :D I've been a little down and slow lately, but I'm recovering hopefully, and I'm going to try and start nabbing a few more commissions here and there <3.

I'm catching the pre-reg for FWA and AC, might be the only cons I hit this year, anyone else planning on heading there? :D

Our group's safe from the MFF thingie, apparently there was some sort of chlorine leak (news reports said it was intentional).

There were 19 people hospitalized from some reports I think

http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/.....207-story.html

We're fine though, can't get rid of me that easily :P. Last day of the con now and it didn't really ruin anything, not too much left to the con right now.

Back to humping butts and art stuff when I get back. I really need that ref sheet and I want a suit. Also I got one of those EZ Cooldown vests they're amazing D:



Other cons: I don't think I want to do further confusion next year, but I definitely want to do anthrocon again. Anyone going to it? :D I want to plan early for it and maybe try and get a ref sheet and a suit for it this time :3

Also are there any other cons besides AC MFF and FC? I hear of furfright, if I get a suit I want to go to that :D I feel kinda obligated to with my fursona

I will be there tomorrow. Probably most of the day but we will see!

EDIT: c'est la vie, semi-finals I got knocked out. Still some noteworthy applause from some of the players there, and it was fun at least

My burfday, I'm sleepy lol. Lazy day for me, got Smash Bros for Wii-U (I suck so hard at it I cried last night rofl XD )

Also MFF is coming up <3 looking forward to it. I'll post a little meme thing soon about it.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BZEAw4Efiqg

Sorry I had to ._.
(Art will be slow for awhile, but soon maybe :3 )

Edit:

Also this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QVCnkso1Ipc

sucks it conflicts with my tournament and the new smash bros for wii-u, and MFF, I don't even know what it's about lol but I'm preordering

Good to see FA is finally back up, ugh DDosing x.x

Anyways though, Blade Symphony is having a free weekend <3 I'm loving this game, need more games with melee dueling, and this one does it really nicely (Also getting amazing pings on servers, 20ms is ridiculously fast, and several servers have me between 20-40 already, maybe there's a server in North Carolina I don't know, but it's nice :D )

Supposedly there's a tournament going up for $500 to the winner, ironically or coincidental, starting on my birthday, 21st of November o.o.

The only downside is that the finals take place on the first of December, which conflicts with Midwest Furfest, which I'm thinking of going out to (it starts on the second and I have to drive, so it's a death sentence to try to do both). Hm... that's still weather permitting because it's a long drive, so only time will tell. I'll also have to train hard to stand a chance, though I'm doing fairly well... I'm hovering between 1000-2000 already (I started at 15000 before most of the free weekend players jumped in, spiked back to 30000 this afternoon then jumped to under 2000 earlier today beating a few high ranking players, lost to many though).

Also I might be willing to stream it some times if anyone wanted, I actually am able to stream this and maintain 40ms on servers o.o

Edit: I'm a derp, MFF is on the 5th of December lol

I died laughting XD

So--story time!

Back a few years ago, for one of the charities I helped with Amaretto on Second Life, there was a typo for my name in the receipt. The typo was "Lexxure Cook" when it should have been "Lexxure Lock". I didn't give any thought to it and left it be.

Now two or three years later I did a search for Lexxure Cook--there is a singer, "Lexxus Cook". Initially I wasn't sure what to think of this <.> I was worried he might be a rap artist and horrified of this thought, but then I looked up some of his music. It's reggae music.

And, coincidence, this is the first one I see. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AMWjh8wxlhw

Butts /EVERYWHERE/ and they even do the booty pop against a car o.o ... So ... Not sure if this is terrible or completely awesome.

Discuss, and halp plz

Been in a rather derpy, sort of mellow mood as of late. Not sure what it is but I haven't been my normal self; a bit stir crazy, and overall very sleepy :D. I woke up a bit earlier today though and I feel a bit better, but I need to fix my hours some.

Apologies on the slow pace of commissions, I do plan to get more, I want more--a LOT more--but I'm just not sure the direction I wish to go. I definitely want some NSFW images as always but some SFW as well, been quite a fan of the toony stuff lately x3.

You guys have any ideas, maybe some artists I should look at or anything in general? I have a list though I'm uncertain on what to do and what to get and with who, if applicable :D

I'm not gonna play it, but I'm gonna watch this instead <:

(There's NSFW story talk in the commentary just as a warning :P )

This may be the subject of personal art later.

(Videos are still processing).

More mario Kart for a bit while this uploads/processes but maybe I'll draw some later tonight :3

Title :D back from Maine.

Also blue balls from HELL

Anyways I will be around, need to think of things I need to do, hm...

I just went whale watching during shark week.

Also apparently we missed some sort of shark on the opposite side of our boat, for the life of me I don't remember the name. There were a lot of humpback (quack) whales, at least four, and a group of 5 whales of another species I don't remember. I mostly just liked the sunset and the cool air though, was nice :3

I'm going up to Maine again in a few days, and will probably be gone for three weeks.

Can't resist the call of lobster... Plus my brother's there :D. But mostly lobster, mmm....

APPARENTLY this level wasn't brought to my attention until yesterday, just as the cutoff date for the achievement/unlock was ending. While I helped some friends get through it on Hard late last night for the unlock, I wanted to return to it and take on the twin Patriarch clones on my own.

Patriarch setup and fight:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Az8.....uZnfc#t=19m53s

1st wave
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Az8.....1uZnfc#t=0m44s

It had to be done, at least a year overdue but here it is. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lWt.....mdhn4Y#t=2m37s

Why should I fear things that are so fragile?

Back from AC, that 7 hour drive isn't too too bad. But I had a great time at AC <3 won the mario kart 8 tournament, and got to see so many fursuits XD. That parade went for 20 minutes or longer hehe.

It was really fun to finally get out for once and hang with real people, as silly as that sounds (you guys have no idea how secluded I am XD). My thanks again to Trixie and Cuckoo and everyone else for letting me roam around with them :D I had a blast!

So I did it.

I snuck out of the house. Drove 7 hours, registered for five and I'm at AC.

I've been hugely stressed by it and haven't mentioned it all that much because this is literally my first time out on my own /ever/, and I've been really nervous about it. I can socialize online all day but, IRL it's not something I've done in ages (not that I can't, just, I've been secluded for ages).

But it's been going nicely, I got to meet  cuckoo and  pandasaurus and see  finchcat 's suit and a few others. I'll likely be roaming with them for the other days of the con as well :D

Already I'm thinking to myself, chances are by the time I get back I'm gonna commission a suit too <3

That is all

It's technically April Fools but I'm dead serious, this is a real thing.
http://na.leagueoflegends.com/node/13678

This mode's hilarious XD I just ran Urgot in the jungle in a pvp game. With 80% CDR, you can spam missiles all day, at max rank you get barrier (his W) on a 2.4 second cooldown and you can spam your corrosive charge, or go semi tanky with a 24 second cool down ultimate.

I'm thinking flat armor, MR, armor pen marks and spell vamp are core for it, since you can spam Q indefinitely to get your HP back.

Also happy April Fools!

P.S. Journals kinda freaking me out XD I'm probably going to wander off for a day.

Done streaming for the moment, I will probably upload the run to youtube eventually. I'll probably type up a mini review on steam later for it, though... I'm torn because I kinda like the melee but the bosses kinda ruin it for me D:.

You give the protagonist a melee weapon, and the whole game is melee viable save for like two or three spots (shuriken is melee :V or melee enough in this game), and then require guns for the boss fights. The last boss takes too long to die unless you use your guns, which is unfortunate because there's no swordfight boss, which makes me sad :(. A lot of lost potential, sequel baiting to the highest order, and uh... Well, I did enjoy using the flux shockwave thingie to detonate corpses, so I guess I can only complain so much. (The game is also maybe 16 hours long, not counting my deaths on some of the bosses and a few times where I had to go to the bathroom :P )

I'll probably stream again to go through Heroic difficulty, though it doesn't seem much harder yet, it locks out the ability to save the game, so you have to load from the start of the level. Eventually, I'll throw an archive.


P.S. I have some commissions along the way also :P I have been rather slow, but there should be a few by the end of this month, hopefully sooner :D shall have to see if I can commission more...

Didn't finish the game, but going to take a break and return to it tomorrow. Supposedly there's a difficulty higher :V but I have to beat the game first to unlock it.

Anyone who knows me beyond FA ( http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfil...../?id=165887440 ) and SL ( http://www.youtube.com/playlist?lis.....1068CB2A8C053A ), would not be surprised I'm having some sick enjoyment ( http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfil...../?id=236463008 ) with this game.

Gotta say I'm liking this game somewhat :P It's a shame that I know I'm already halfway through, and probably have only another 8 hours left in the game (if that). I'm planning on streaming the rest of the game, possibly later tonight but we will have to see, though I'm thinking I might like to post it on youtube and/or divide it in parts and post it.

Also I forgot how to do URL tags for words :(
