So, Many, Chocobos

I made 45 chocobos for Anime Boston in a matter of... three months? I have no idea how I did it, either.

It Just Kinda Happens

You know, things... pop up. Like Arien.

You have some really beautiful things... and shiny. I cannot help but be attracted to shiny.

(All about chocobos.) Thank you so much! We do tend to manage to entertain ourselves. Somehow.

I, too, can't resist the allure of bright and shiny stuff ('magpie' gene, I guess. LOL)
Thanks for the info on chocobos. I had no idea...of course, my gaming experience pretty much started (and ended) with ';Pong!'

Cheerz!=)

Good to meet you at AB. I'm definitely going to get at least one of those chocobos sometime *smiles*

I'm more of a writer myself, but feel free to check out my page here!

Hello there! It was very nice meeting you as well. I see you sing too, which naturally makes me happy. (I must get back to singing, I must.)

Clearly I have been insanely busy if it's taken me this long to get back to you (three days, really?)--but I do look forward to coming back and reading your work. I'm just not sure convention recovery is possible at this point. Heh.

Definitely get back to singing! That and songwriting are my main artistic pursuits. I'm going to have five songs professionally recorded in late July and then see what I can do with them.

By convention recovery do you mean recovering from exhaustion to do with AB? *grins*

I suppose it would be easier if the days weren't full of the noise of carpenters working upstairs, but all the more reason to sing louder! I suppose I'll have to suck it up and see if I can get Vista to recognize more than one sound card so I can finally put some old recording devices to use again. Not a pleasant thought.

And that delay was simply being busy. Sheesh. So much for a vacation after AB. I have no idea why the same exhaustion occurs whether you are sitting and selling for a whole weekend, or getting dragged around by your friends. Either way, fun!

Good luck with Vista. I literally destroyed the Vista installation on my then-new computer five minutes after setting it up. Fortunately I had XP install discs, which worked and have been working fine since then *grins*

For recording I use a Spike XD-2. Two inputs but I usually only use one at a time. I've been doing music production for about three or so years now and have produced seven songs that I posted on my Facebook (as video files). I'm starting to try to put the word out that I can do basic production for other people as I pursue getting my own stuff done on a more advanced level. In about two months I'm going to have acoustically produced cuts and I'm really really looking forward to that!

As to friends... oh yes... I really tire myself out most weekends, this coming one included in that measure - headed to Pembroke, MA, but it will be so worth it.

If you use Facebook, please do add me! The link is here:

TTYL!
