a ton of things

[elementalhero]

Work was so weird today. I had to scrub dirt off the walls for two hours because execs from our parent company back in Germany are coming to check the plant and do executive things, and of course we have to pretend that this factory isn't coated in a layer of grime a half-inch deep. I am not exaggerating. Two hours. Dirt off walls. I am not making this shit up.

But then I made a playdate lunch date with a nice girl I've been talking to; we're going to skip out during dinner break tomorrow to zip up to her barn (only like three miles away) so she can show me her horses. Me + horses = childlike squealing and glee. I ALWAYS WANTED A RAINBOW PONY AS A CHILD, OKAY. So, basically, yeah, today was just like "wat is going on."

I am stuck in Pokemon Sapphire! I can't figure out how to get Rock Smash and I keep trying to talk to the girl on the Verdanturf side of the Rusturf Tunnel to tell me how to get it so I can reunite her with her stupid boyfriend and she just keeps telling me all "HE'S SO NOBLE, DIGGING A MILE-LONG TUNNEL WITH HIS BARE HANDS, WHICH IS A TOTAL TURN-ON FOR ME," and I am like YOU'RE DUMB, HE'S RIGHT THERE, IF YOU WOULD GIVE ME THE GODDAMN HM I CAN SMASH THESE ROCKS AND BE DONE WITH YOU. Ugh. also I am addicted to Contests *w* GROW FASTER, BERRIES!

I am like vibrating with excitement for Kannagara's fourth wall event because I can just be like SCREW HIATUS, I AM SPAMMING PEOPLE WITH MY LOVE AND DEVOTION. Two weeks left. Two more weeks in purgatory. I can do this. /cries

Fuu, bet you were spazzing like Eusine going on a pony ride with Suicune. Icon very much relevant.

Sapphire? I've only played Emerald but I don't remember anything about Rock Smash? Erm...Bulbapedia's your best friend?

Man, at this point, Bulbapedia is my life.

POOOOOOONIES!!!!!

Ponies! Sounds awesome!

And sadly, my Sapphire file has 120+ hours clocked on it, so I can't really do anything to help you, because I probably did it years ago.

A man in a house in Mauville gives you the Rock Smash HM!
You probably already figured that out by now, but just in case.
I remember being addicted to Contests too. I've never even tried the ones in Sinnoh, though. I guess I could look into that. What I'm really addicted to is the roulette wheel in the Game Corner. Whenever I get bored of whatever DS game I'm playing at the time, I just... win 100 coins and then stop. I have a good few thousand now and no idea what to do with them.

Ah, ponies! I am happy for you but not jealous at all because horses scare me to death and I did NOT enjoy being forced to ride one for two hours a few months ago. ;_;

It's a common panfandom RP event these days, apparently.

TWO WEEKS.

They were really big and the one liked to lick my hand and got horse slobber all over it. So cute~

[okroginator.livejournal.com]

Only one was a pony; the rest were hardcore big-A horses. They were really gorgeous and the girl I was with was telling me about each of their personalities and preferences. I never really knew how smart horses were, I guess?

And thanks, but I managed to find it on my own C: (by shaking down some guy in Mauville, Jack Bauer-style)

[okroginator.livejournal.com]

I found it! I had to run around Mauville busting into houses and shaking the people down, but I did eventually find it.

I am not scared of horses (obvs) but I do have a healthy wariness of getting too loud/close to them, as they are large animals and some can spook easily.

All I can think about now is the Firefly quote:
"Yeah, and if wishes were horses, we'd all be eating steak."

But I doubt that would be what happens in that case.
