So I was looking at Codename: Kids Next Door on Wikipedia because I couldn't remember whether Numbuh Five was Abby or Abbey... The shame. And I noticed that INTERVIEWS had aired in the Philipines. So I looked at the article. And.

...NUMBUH 239 LIVES. Just take my advice, and don't roleplay two hours after you should be in bed. That never ended well for my characters.

OMGOMGOMG

Operation ZERO. Wow. Since I haven't been in the KND fandom for months, and haven't really liked KND for over a year, I thought I wouldn't be excited about the movie.

I've never been so wrong. Except for all the times when I was more wrong than I was today. I was looking foward to it a little.

So now I want to see it quite a bit. Maybe I'll keep an eye on YouTube for the next few weeks. And I must have a picture of Sector Z.

I think spring has started. Even though it's the middle of August. I'm all bouncy and happy instead of morbidly depressed. Not that I'm morbidly depressed very often.

Well, I looked up the Hall of Records on the Internet. Fortunetly for me, there was an entire transcript of the thing. Even more fortunetly, it was at the top of the page! Ah, Neverhood. How I love thee...*Is happy*
Hmmm... Maybe I should say why I like that game so much. So I will.
It all start with... no, that doesn't work. I'll just write normally.
It all started when I was seven, or possibly eight. As I recall, I was having a bath. When I got out, I dryed off in front of the heater. (I could do that. I was a little kid). I discovered that my mother had downloaded a demo of a game off the Internet. The Neverhood, of course. Through a complete fluke, I figured out the first and only puzzle on my own, before anyone else. *Shakes head*. The flytrap would break his fall? What was I thinking? Anyway, since it was a demo, you could only go through two rooms before it went to a screen telling you to by the game.
My mother got the game for her birthday an indeterminate amount of time later. I played it too. The puzzles were hard, and I figured out few of them on my own. All in all, it was a great game. Any ending other than the "good" one scared me, and I refused to watch them. I know I was still like that when I was eleven, but I don't know about now. The fact that an ad on the radio where a guy gets buried alive made my sense of humour dry up, and that watching Spiderman 2 caused me serious emotional pain, sort of indicates that I still am.
The really important thing that happened probably happened when I was nine. I went on the Internet for myself for the first time. I was looking for hints for the Neverhood. The search engine I was using defied the laws of search engines, and came up with a fansite quite quickly. It was at http://www.geocities.com/TimesSquare/Dungeon/7393
It was my first encounter with fandom. The site that really stuck in my mind, however, was another site, the content of which can now be found at http://doo.nomoretangerines.com/nevhood/index.htm .
I didn't know this until today, however. So... that's what I'm so happy about. That a site from my internet infancy is still out there somewhere. A site whose fanfiction inspired me to write my own. A site that made me really wish I could draw that well...
