new webpage link, and my day so far

hey y'all. just so you know, my current website will be getting deleted when i graduate, so i moved a bunch of my pictures, at least, over to a new site - http://community.webshots.com/user/supercheesegirl - and i'll be making the update to my userinfo as well. so if you had an old post of mine bookmarked for the link to pictures, you gots ta change it, yo.

today i got up early, dropped jorn off at work at 8:45, then went to get milk and *MORE* draino (the bathroom sink refuses to unclog), and then to the bank at like 9:02am to deposit a check. oh yeah, the temp job that was supposed to start today? it's starting tomorrow instead. they had paperwork to do or something. whateva. anyway, after the bank i went to the gym--hooray! i stretched really well by doing an abbreviated version of my yoga routine, then stepped for 25 minutes, then lifted, then a bunch o' crunches. i feel all strong and stuff. then i headed to the computer lab to back up all my webpage files and get that shizz taken care of. woot. now i'm headed for home and lunch and gameboy.

zelda stuff

non-nintendo nerds can just skip this entry.

so i'm playing oracle of ages, and AFTER beating the part where the annoying fish people steal all my stuff, and AFTER navigating the diseased and complicated ocean in the past and the present to get to the zora village, and AFTER completing the underwater labyrinth where you have to raise and lower the water level to access different rooms and sections of the maze, after doing all that, i'm attempting to get through the Hero's Cave. this dungeon isn't necessary to win the game--it's a side quest that will get me an extra cool ring, so i'm giving it a try. and i get stuck in one of those rooms where you have to turn each square tile on the floor all the same color--when you walk in, the floor is blue, and you have to change it all to pink one tile at a time. and you can't open the door to go on until you do this puzzle.

so i try it five dozen times and can't figure it out. the best i can do is get every single tile in the room except for one. there's always *one* tile left over. i figure, i'll take a break, sleep on it, and so i come back to it today. after trying the room another three dozen times, i still cannot get it. i've consulted the Official Perfect Game Guide, and all it says about the Hero's Cave is "you may want to challenge the Cave of Heroes, which features 14 difficult puzzles." yeah, i noticed. this supposedly perfect game guide does not have any information at all on how to get through the 14 damn difficult puzzles. so i decide to consult the wisdom of others more nerdy than myself, and i look online. i find a FAQ that leads me to this gif that shows me the answer. and the answer is that THERE IS ONE TILE LEFT OVER, AND YOU USE YOUR CANE OF SOMARIA TO COVER THE LAST DAMN TILE. holy fuck, how goddamned annoying. i never ever would have thought of that, and i could've finished this puzzle on like my third try yesterday if i had thought of it. son of a bitch.

i liked oracle of seasons a lot better. ages is kicking my ass. and making me use a lot of bad language. sigh.
