MOAR WAR PAINT!!! YAAAAAY!!!

by Alxala

I sold enough trading cards this to buy a couple of War Paint tools from the Steam Community Market and add them to my Team Fortress 2 inventory:

And here’s two more of my War Paint weapons that I’ve received:

Oh, I also bought a Radigan Conagher Brown paint tool and applied it to my Sky High Fly Guy for the Soldier:

It’s a perfect color for a leather pilot’s hat. 🙂

Sunday Garage Wood Work Open Thread

by Alxala

I’ve been doing some wood sawing in the garage lately with the help of my dad. He needed me to get this done so he can use the bandsaw to cut the pieces of wood into wooden arcs. I snapped a picture of them right here:

He’s gonna be using them to put together an outdoor decoration for a house owned by a friendly person whose friends with some friend of ours. Either way, it was a really good wood sawing workout. It helps me build stronger muscles. 🙂

Some Awesome Fun with Pokemans Diamant

by Alxala

I downloaded a Nintendo DS emulator from the website called DeSmuME the other night, and I also downloaded some ROMs that include Mario Kart DS, Pokemon Diamond & Pearl, etc. 🙂

I decided to test out the emulator by going on a quest in Pokemon Diamond:

It’s a game where you play as either Lucas or Dawn and you set out on a journey to catch new species of Pokemon from the 4th generation and the other three generations back, talk to people especially the ones who give you special items, and battle against other trainers and gym leaders. So far not only have I caught a bunch of Pokemon, I also managed to defeat the first two gym leaders which are Roark and Gardenia:

I even stumped the two female Team Galactic commanders known as Mars and Jupiter:

I’d say this is a really fun Pokemon game for me. Oh, and what I like about this game are really cool 3D graphics, and new Technical Machines (or TMs for short) that contain some moves that I haven’t even heard of before such as Stone Edge and U-Turn. 🙂

First Open Thread of the Month

by Alxala

We had our friendly visitor coming over earlier this gray, rainy day afternoon. San_San made us some delicious meatloaf, mashed potatoes and green beans for dinner along with the salad that our guest made. I have a picture of it right here:

San_San also made some freshly baked apple custard pie for dessert last night. Unfortunately I don’t have a photo of the pie but it was super tasty and it sure was nice seeing our visiting guest. 🙂
