whee~

I'm ridiculously excited, because after reconfiguring my router, I'm able to use my DS' wi-fi function. (I also gave the router a much cooler SSIN than the one lesboy had given it.) Anyway, if you're playing Pokémon Diamond/Pearl, give me your friend code! Let's trade Pokémon! And mystery gifts! And visit each other's secret lairs! My code is 0473 4272 4291.

[Poll #973822]

I had a good time hanging with the posse in Norfolk. The weather was soooooo nice~ We went to Busch Gardens, Colonial Williamsburg, Virginia Beach, and we saw wild bald eagles at the Norfolk Botanical Gardens. Including a baby eagle! So cute!! Colonial Williamsburg was really interesting. The "interpreters", as they call them, at the plantation are amazing. I learned so much. And I somehow ended up with a season pass to Busch Gardens, so I'd really like to go down there again if I can manage it, especially since they have a new roller coaster opening next month.

Despite it having New Hampshire's state motto in the title, I wasn't really planning on seeing Live Free or Die Hard, but Justin Long as the damsel technogeek in distress? I may have to. I can already imagine the Die Hard/MacPC crossover fic. Plus, you just can't go wrong with helicopters blowing up.

Gah, I need to get dressed, but I can't stop playing Pokémon....

Ha, I'm kinda trying out Pokemon too. Did you get Diamond or Pearl?

I can't quite make use of the DS Wi-fi at the moment because I don't have a wireless router. And playing DS games on the internet doesn't justify to me the cost of buying one specifically for this purpose. But if I can get on, I'll get a friendcode for you :)

I got Diamond. I don't know about where you live, but here, all the McDonalds' have free wi-fi access.

*gnaws on* I am idiotz when it comes to the friend stuff, so you'll have to tell me . . . XD

At least I got my friend code? >_>;

All I've managed to do so far is trade, which you do in the basement of the poké center. It seems that if one of your friends is online, they show up automatically when you go in the wi-fi room. There's still a lot I haven't figured out yet, though.... ^^;

I know the feeling. XD;

Th-there was one thing I was wondering if you could help me with . . . ;;; *bad person for wanting it, but~* I kind of want to get all the starters into one game and wondered if you'd be willing to help me trade like that. :x *of course, I'd do the same for you, if you don't have 'em/want them*

. . . Yeah. I bought both of them. >>;

Sure, I'll help! ^^ Right now I'm stuck in the middle of the forest, though. I only have one badge, so all my pokémon are under level 20.

Not sure what you might want from me in return for your help . . . :O The area I'm working on levels at has level 20 water types (namely Buizel, Floatzel and Sheldon, but I can get Magikarp and Goldeen in the 20's, too. Or, uh. Other types, too? *and what primers do you need~?)

I appreciate this and getting me these starters is my primary concern. XD; So, I'm willing to shower with love.

Well, any kind of pokémon that I don't already have would be great of course, but I'll be happy if I could just borrow a Turtwig for pokédex credit. Would late tonight work for you? Not sure when I'll get home from work, probably between 10:30 and 12:30 EST.

Tonight works splendidly~ ♥ Just send a comment on over when you're on and my e-mail will yell at me. XD;

I'm on~ You can ping my AIM at fujisquared.

[identity profile] castor.livejournal.com 2007-04-27 06:42 am (UTC)(link)
And just curious how far/lvls are you? :O?

[identity profile] castor.livejournal.com 2007-04-27 08:19 am (UTC)(link)
omg. Sorry to Geek at you, but I'm all . . . "WHUT?" right now over this gym.

My level 23 Murkrow went into the gym and defeated all the lackies and raised to level 28. Fainted on the main battle, first pokemon . . . (Last hit got a rebound hit and fainted the first one and mine.) Second battle I'm all, " . . . shit." 'Cause I have a Gastly to use. Level 23 . . . against a level 34 and he beat him. H-how?

Last one, Mismagius level 36, KO-ed my Gastly that was low on life as was, then KO-ed my 32 Prinplup and somehow my level 33 Staravia survived. ;;; *which the exp kicked it into evolution to Staraptor*

. . . I shut up now. I'm just shocked and wtf-ed by that. *didn't think I'd win without leveling more, granted, poor Pokemon that fainted . . . ;;; *will level them each to make them happier, though*

Dude, I only like just woke up, so I'm all "................@_@?" by that. XD I've had crazy stuff like that happen before, though. I really like that you pay a reasonable amount of money if you lose now, instead of half like it used to be. You can lose with honor and keep the EXP instead of restarting.

[identity profile] castor.livejournal.com 2007-04-27 07:09 pm (UTC)(link)
I haven't actually been beat by anyone yet. Close, but I didn't know that happened. XD Kind of nice to know.

[identity profile] castor.livejournal.com 2007-04-29 03:34 am (UTC)(link)
Hey~ I've got two extra skulls, if you'd like one. XD *or the Pokemon evolved from it, even* I don't know whyyy I've now gotten three of them. XD;

[identity profile] chocolate_chip.livejournal.com 2007-04-29 05:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Aw, thanks for the offer, but I already got one of my own. ^^
