My Super Power

A thought of mine that is always up for change is 'If I had a superpower, what would it be?' Normally I'd say I'd quite like the power of super speed because a)It's awesome and b) I wouldn't have to pay for trains anymore, but I don't really think that's the super power for me. At the moment (because it does tend to change) I think I'd have/like to have the power of 'awesome to atmosphere' ratio.
It's a bit like the Ticks 'power of drama' except more controlled by a mix of atmosphere, emotion, belief in what you can do and reactions, so at it's most basic if you feel you should be able to do something then you can. With the most common aspect being 'leat-ness (like combo's in computer games) and materialising temporary semi-visible objects because those are the things I feel I should be able to do most. So you could probably do that say, at night in the street with your i-pod on something a bit awesome, or if you got into a fight probably at night. (Because things feel more awesome at night.) If stuff started getting really crazy, there was a massive super-villain with mooks battle and you were feeling completely overwhelmed, you could probably freeze time, if something jumped out at you, you could probably make an energy shield and if a zombie was coming at you you could materialise a gun, and if that didn't work blast it with an energy beam (So a bit like Inception), but you couldn't just do something because you felt like it or for some sort of mundane task.
The downside would be that you could probably never fly (because it's not really a spur of the moment thing) or go super fast (except within a small area, such as in a fight or possibly to run away) as well as the fact that you could only be awesome when you were feeling awesome. I'd probably need to have an i-pod on me alot of the time, and accept that I was less likely to be super powered in the middle of the day.
Probably vulnerable to psychological attacks, and situations I couldn't think of a way to get out of properly.

Don't worry, he can dodge that.

Post script:
Someone did say this was pretty much atmospheric dependant omnipotence, which it basically is.
If I had a less powerful super power I would like (as I already said) super speed. Probably followed by invisibility.

Caffeine Free

Sooo, no more coursework for a while. I got some sleep, stopped drinking as much caffeine and now I feel much better thank you. Yeah that's pretty much all I had to say.
I guess in other news there are quite a few films coming out that I'm interested in how they do. There's Tin Tin and The Muppet's, both of which could very well fail but might pull it off and I think the first has a better chance of doing well. Also it's got the cool guy from Jumper in it, you know the one with the accent who knew what he was doing. The musketeers film looks like it could be cool, I mean it had blimps in the trailer. It looks a bit like they might have taken the bad bits from the first movie and reversed them, but I guess I'll have to wait and see.
In other vaguely related news ATFW did manage to pull of a brilliant reveal for the entity arc. I really didn't think he could do it (and was setting myself up for some major anticlimax) but he did. It felt so completely out of left field, but it made so much sense. So much sense in fact that quite a few people had apparently guessed it, because literally everything fitted in. And that is one of the many reasons why I love continuity, some times it all comes together in one big 'seriously how did I not see that' Blam. Epic.
I'm not really stopping for long, I just thought I'd rather put more of a bright and happy post up now that I'm feeling bright and happy again.

Aside Script : Once again it's nearly Poster Time, I don't think I'll need your help this time round [A bunch of help you all were last time .... ] but I'll shout if I need any ideas. Better yet, you shout if you have any ideas.
I've done TF2 and a Full Life Half Life Consequences so I was thinking of doing something different. (The one I have in mind atm is RvB) but ideas from either of them are welcome as well.

Needs more coffee...

I'm really tired. I have so much to do, but my head feels like there's a big cuddly balloon filling it up to the edges and beyond.
I kind of feel like I should get another cup of coffee, but that would involve leaving my room, which is playing Claire De Lune, which I don't want to stop listening to because it's relaxing and nice and vaguely happy in a kind of 'end of Oceans 11' kind of way. With fountains and lights and things. That is such a beautiful fountain with lights...
Man I've just had some pretty strong coffee. Is there a downside to binge coffee? It's not like I've been drinking loads, I've barley had any before the weekend, it's just I really need to get this work done, and the last cup did make me feel a lot better. As did Freemans mind. There's something about angry people in stuff ranting and shooting stuff loudly that really makes you feel like you don't have to anymore. *Halo Overture starts playing* I should really have gone to the kitchen in that song change. Maybe I'll wait for the next one.
Maybe I'll go now.
Sorry for the lack of happy funky posts, but there's what, two of you who read this regularly? And I'm betting one of them hasn't read this in 3 or more months now so I doubt any of you really care. Not that it matters because 68% of me doesn't care what anyone thinks of this blog anyway and 68% is a clear win for the 'not caring' side. I'm going to get that coffee or something, thanks for hanging around and have a nice day.
*Convenient song change to 'Last train to London' <3*
I really can't be bothered with pictures and nice text today.
But hey all my deadlines should be over by Wends, at least for a couple of weeks, so maybe I'll do a funky post after that Ok? Maybe. No promises, because I already owe you guys a comic. I'm now changing all my deadlines to Valve time.

3 coffee's and not much work later and I'm still going. This is going to be a long week. I think I'm really slowing down, because the clocks all seem to be going really fast...
My mug is empty. It's those caffeine monkeys, always stealing the coffee right out'a your mug. :(

Getting Started Again

Looks like work's starting to hit for real now. I guess it takes having work to do to make you want to do other things. Like Blogging.

Right now I really don't feel like working, but I know I just have to find that 'working' zone. I don't suppose it's going to be easy, and I know I don't have the best strategies ever but hopefully I can do it.

This is kind of a pointless post really. It's a bit of a "Hey I still exist, and so do you." but mostly it's because I think writing this might help me zone in on the work. I mean writing something is better than writing nothing right?

How do most people ever get any work done without those wonderful people around to help?

Well I think I'm getting there, so I'll let you know how it goes. I have the feeling I need to go to the kitchen now. (I'm not sure what for, but I guess I'll figure that out when I get there. Glass of water? Cup of tea?)

I wonder if fairy lights would be a good idea? I think it's the glass of water that I need. I really hope this works.

See you later, space cowboy... around.
