Some pictures in here, resized so hopefully they won't give anyone a problem? I'm going to upload some larger versions later on. ^_^ Mouse-overs for the pictures!

( San Francisco/Yosemite Vacation )

The first 10 people to comment on this post get to request a drabble (real drabble: 100 words exactly) from you. In return, they have to post this in their journal and write a drabble for you. Post all fandoms you're willing to write for. (This is optional; you don't HAVE to do it in return, but it would be pretty spiffy if you did.)

Your friends can pick a relationship, a story arc, a missing scene, or pretty much anything they want, unless the author has previously mentioned that they will not write it. They comment with what they want, and you write drabbles and post it in your LiveJournal.

Erm.. *thinks* Ronin Warriors, Coldfire Trilogy, Battle B-daman, Sherlock Holmes, The Once and Future King, Don't Bite The Sun... probably others I could think of if I weren't getting a little fuzzy here. Yay emotional rollercoasters.

The aggravating thing about even trying to talk about my vacation was I knew I'd forget at least half the little happy-making moments. But here's a big one I forgot: First day, I ate lunch in a seafood resturant! A nice one right out on the pier, and the people helped me with not knowing how to eat the food - you're not supposed to eat soybeans like they were green beans, apparently. Which explained the aggravating fibrousness and how they were hard to swallow. >.> Also I had... darnit I can't remember the name? They were little fried octopi, for an appetizer.

They were creepy. Fried like that, they look like spiders. o.o;; And you know, I made myself eat them, and they did taste kind of nice? But every single one - *gingerly picks up*
*stares at*
*tries not to imagine it moving*
*eyesclosedgulp!* alternately *i'mnotlookingatwhatiputinmymouthgulp!*

The salmon was much nicer because it didn't look like small creepy evil things. ^^;; Hence I was actually able to enjoy it - I could not tell there was fish! Just this meat with a really nice texture and the spices were maybe a little too hot for me. Or maybe I wasn't supposed to eat that green stuff at the bottom of the pan... But they brought it out still smoking in its own little pan and in case you didn't realize this was a higher class of place than I'm used to eating at. :P But so cool! ^_^

Well. Soon I shall have to go to work.

But I must squee. SQUEE!!! Because you see, I have bought a GameBoy Advance SP. This is my very handheld game system, and I was kind of leery about it. This would be because the last handheld that I saw was in the days of the first Pokemon games, someone had one at school I think? Black and white sort of pixel line art and it really reminded me of nothing so much as an Etch-A-Sketch.

Etch-A-Sketch. Videogame. So not impressed.

But this is the only system for Kingdom Hearts : Chain of Memories, and I have this twitch about not seeing/playing all of a story which means I can't play the new KH until I've done this one and so I gritted my teeth and went out and got it and. Um. You can imagine my shocked surprise and transports of squee, then, when I start the game and the colors!! :D And the tiny sprites like something out of an old game! OMG, the little sprites I just want to hug to pieces they're so cute!!

And I haven't even played yet, it's still charging, I just couldn't leave without having a peek.

I am so coming home on my lunchbreak.
